Sharon Stone is griping about her fortunes (or lack thereof?) again. Earlier this year, in an interview with InStyle, She complained about being rich and famous despite a substantial net worth. Now, the Hollywood star claims she was penniless due to “people taking advantage” after a 2001 stroke that left her bedridden.
Earlier this year, The Basic Instinct star whined that it’s “very expensive to be famous.” The actress listed all the costs associated with being a star, including a newly purchased home and the fees for her security staff, publicists, makeup artists, and managers.
Sharon Stone also complained about picking up the dinner bill every time, saying, “You go out to dinner, and there’s 15 people at the table, and who gets the check? You get the $3,000 dinner check every single time.”
Now, in a new interview with a Hollywood reporter, the actress revealed she lost $18 million in savings after suffering from a stroke in 2001. The actress said she also stepped away from Hollywood during a seven-year recovery. “I had $18 million saved because of all my success, but when I got back into my bank account, it was all gone. My refrigerator, my phone—everything was in other people’s names,” she said.
Stone added, “I had zero money.” In light of her revelations, let’s examine her impressive net worth.
