How Nicolas Cage squandered 150 million and went bankrupt again
The wealth of Hollywood star Nicolas Cage was once estimated at 150 million dollars, and today it is six times less because he bought houses, properties, cars, and "twisted" and rather expensive things, such as a collection of shrunken pygmy heads, out of boredom.
Nicolas Cage spent a lot of money buying real estate around the world. At one point, the famous actor owned 15 houses, including castles in England and Germany, as well as a property worth 25 million dollars in California.
He bought an island in the Bahamas and one of the most haunted houses in America, which is located in New Orleans. He currently owes $ 6.3 million in taxes on his real estate.
As a passionate car collector, he once had as many as nine Rolls Royces and Lamborghinis worth 450 thousand dollars.

What is difficult to explain is the need to buy some of the "twisted" things.
The actor owns a 70 million-year-old dinosaur skull worth 276,000 dollars, a pyramid-shaped tomb about three meters high in which he wants to be buried, and an octopus worth 150,000 dollars, which allegedly helps him in acting.
He also owns an enviable collection of comics worth $ 1.6 million, which includes the first comic about Superman that he paid $ 150,000.
He blamed his former partner Samuel Levin for the loss of his fortune, whom he also sued for risky investments that ended in large losses.
Levin once stated that Cage "spends money uncontrollably" and that he should earn 30 million dollars a year in order to be able to maintain his lifestyle.
