We've been hearing about Nicholas Cage broke, or the Nicholas Cage financial problems. It's weird to think of a celebrity as being as susceptible to bankruptcy or debt as the rest of us. However, the Nicholas Cage financial problems are very real – he's sold off at least one home so far, a castle he owned in Germany, and is auctioning off several more properties he owns to pay the IRS and other creditors. He currently owes the IRS over $6 million, and is suing his business manager, who he claims orchestrated this whole fiasco, and damaged his reputation beyond repair. It's hard to believe the Nicholas Cage financial problems and need for credit repair are that bad.
