Depends on level of celebrity. Also how long have they been out of the public eye? What are they doing? Of course being a megastar has a huge monetary advantage. So does the flavor of the moment. Once there 15 minutes are up however, they do normal jobs,usually. Living off their name if they can, often in the business, retail or finical fields. They sell names as much as talent. Some go into their field... directing and producing etc. Look... David lee Roth is on the radio heh. They all however make more then me, but no more then someone qualified in there field... maybe.

I believe many celebrities go into other related fields such as directing,producing and even now you are starting to hear more celebrities leading there voices to animation projects such as the movie CARS.\nOther celebrities write books, open restaurants, or just simply take it is and enjoy life.

Yes I sure could see myself as a celebrity. I'm older now and I think the maturity level would help being in a world that is so fast paced. Plus sometimes it can be overwhelming as well as tempting. I would surely be about business and trying to keep my career on track. Good luck to you in your venture and let all of us know how it turns out. Keep us posted so you can say, your real fans are on Yahoo Answers!

Anybody earning over half a million annually to entertain (football, hollywood, whatever) gets paid too much. I don't care how hard they work, blah blah blah, they are siphoning off money from the middle class...and they should feel ashamed.

Yes, definitely.  People are seeking personal trainers more and more.  Besides if you were really good you could end up working for celebrities and really bring in some major cash. : )

I think they MAKE that much.  They just don't EARN it.  Teachers should be paid more, and celebs who just look good with few talents (ahem, Ms. Ritchie and friends) should make a lot less.

Hollywood stars, making $20 million a movie or $10 million per TV-season, qualify for many people's overpaid list. But for every one of those actors and actresses, there are a thousand waiting tables and taking bit movie parts or regional theater roles awaiting a big break that never comes.\n\n"A lot of people are overpaid because there are certain things consumers just don't want screwed up," said Bill Coleman, senior vice president of compensation for Salary.com. "You wouldn't want to board a plane flown by a second-rate pilot or hire a cheap wedding photographer to record an event you hope happens once in your lifetime.\n\n"With pro athletes, one owner is willing to pay big money for a star player and then all the other players want to keep up with the Joneses," Coleman said. "The art with CEO pay is making sure your CEO is above the median -- and you see where that goes."\n\nWhat follows is a list of the 10 most overpaid jobs in the U.S., in reverse order, drafted with input from compensation experts:\n\n10) Wedding photographers\nPhotographers typically charge $2,000 to $5,000 to shoot a wedding, for what amounts to a one-day assignment plus processing time. Some get $15,000 or more. Yet many mope through the job, bumping guests in their way without apology, with the attitude: "I'm just doing this for the money until Time or National Geographic calls."\n\nThey must cover equipment and film-development costs. Still, many in major metropolitan areas who shoot two weddings each weekend in the May-to-October marrying season pull in $100,000 for six months' work.\n\nYet let's face it; much of their work is mediocre. Have you ever really been wowed flipping the pages of a wedding album handed you by recent newlyweds? Annie Leibovitz and Richard Avedon they're not, but some charge fees as if they're in the same league.\n\n9) Pilots for major airlines\nCaptains with 12 years of experience earn up to $265 an hour at Delta, United, American and Northwest, which translates to $250,000 a year and more for a job that technology is making almost fully automated.\n\nBy comparison, senior pilots at low-fare carriers like Southwest and Jet Blue make about 40 percent less. That helps explain why their employers are profitable while several of the majors are teetering on the brink of bankruptcy.

Depends on where you work and how good you are at your job.  If you're Jose Eber, you make lots of money doing hair.  If you work part-time at SuperCuts, you'll make some pocket change.

I used to be one of those people who was not happy with my job. I worked in the corporate world and that life just was not for me. So one day I walked away from and decided to pursue my passion which was singing. It worked out. Today I am an entertain - not a big name but I make a living. I love my job. I live to go out on stages and get that applause after I know I have done a good job. I have met a lot of my favorite bands and have opened for some pretty big names. This is the life.
