Even worse, Nicolas Cage allegedly owes over $6 million in back taxes to the IRS all the way back to 2002.

“Levin placed Cage in numerous highly speculative and risky real estate investments, resulting in Cage suffering catastrophic losses,” the lawsuit states. “He is now forced to sell major assets and investments at a significant loss and is faced with huge tax liabilities because of Levin’s incompetence, misrepresentations and recklessness.”

Cage reportedly has a net worth of $38 million according to Forbes magazine and earned $40 million between June, 2008 and June, 2009. Just goes to show being rich and famous doesn’t mean you can’t be an idiot with money.
