Is Britney Going Broke???
Filed under: Britney Spears
We may have another Michael Jackson on our hands!
The very respectable New York Times has written a very lengthy piece on the state of Britney Spears' financial affairs.
Once a top earner, the recovering mother of two is now grossly spending more than she's earning.
The Times paints her fortune as being "at risk."
Poor Brit. She just can't catch a break!
Spears' current financial state can't be solely blamed on too many expenditures, though.

You can take the girl out of the trailer park, but you can't take the trailer park out of the girl. Poor people just don't know how to manage money.

why the hell is the New York Times wasting their time writing about BS's financial situation? I thought they were a legit newspaper? way to go NYT's!
First!
Just as long as she gets better really money dosent matter x
lol i hope she ends up broke since she aint dying any time soon lol … her parents will blow her money for her anyways
Its bound to happen the way she lives…
According to Forbes she mad 8 million dollar from June 2006 to June 2007 so she aint going broke in a long time!
whoops
I sure she has a lot of money left. I mean she can just sell some of her houses. I think she has like 3 now.

Oh no! Hopefully that's not true! I LOOOVE BRIT and I want her to be happy and get better now - SHE DOESN'T NEED ANY MORE PROBLEMS!

50 Million! She's not likely to go broke in this lifetime. I wish I was that broke! Please!
Sorry Perez, but if the New York Times was actually a respectable newspaper it would not be doing a story on Britney Spears. Period. Think about that!
w.e she is not broke this IS FAke SHE IS NOT GONG BROKE YALL JUST TRING TO FUCK WITH HER BUT no she is not going broke!
DOES ANYONE ELSE THINK THAT SAM LUFTI GUY SOLD THAT STORY TO NYT…ITS FUNNY NYT NEVER WROTE ABOUT THIS UNTIL LUFTI GOT FIRED…..JUST SAYING…………..
No…I mean the bitch is dumb and I wouldn't put it past her, but she had A LOT of income, not to mention A LOT of bank…and besides a car here and there (lol) and high fees for lawyers, court, etc., she isn't spending much on anything else. How do I know? Because too many people are up her ass all the time.
Maybe she's going broke compared to how much money she had previously…not even a year or two ago. Not to mention where is their 'proof'?
the very respectable nyt? you have said this on a number of occasions. i know that you're not from the city, but if you read the times on a daily basis, you would know that they repetitively print stories without proper evidentiary proof; and that when they find out they are mistaken, fail to report it in their comments: they do this on a weekly basis, not just on national news but metro.
It just a matter of time before she goes broke. These young child star think they will stay hot forever but forget there is always another Hot upcoming star that will take their places. Christian Aguleria and Jessica simpson has more cash than her.
It doesn't matter howmuch you have - it can all run out one day! INVEST!
I think her dad intervened in the nick of time. She could have been broke very soon but i think she on the mend and heading for a come back (soonish). If shes sensible with her millions she could just retire and live a very comfortable life, not that i think she should retire. Shes still selling more records then most popstars, even though her life went all tits up. Shes got staying power as long as she dosent make anymore fuck ups. You can only make so many mistakes.
thats not true…i saw the forbes 20 womans who made bank on E! and she was on the list. she made 8 million dollars this year
Besides the fact that the New York Times took a major credibility hit with that unsubstantiated article on John McCain, Britney is hardly going broke. Did you even read the article, Perez?
SHE'S NOT GOING BROKE FAST ENOUGH. I BET SHE'LL EVENTUALLY LEAK HER SEX VIDEO
She was hyper spending due to her bipolar disorder. That is a very common occurance with bipolar 1 people. They hyper spend, they can be hyper- sexual, hyper-religious. It's sad, because a lot of the time, when these people become stabilized, they don't remember doing the things they've done. I feel sorry for her. I would not want to trade lives with her.
Re: elle – YOU'RE NOT INCLUDING TAXES AND THE FACT THAT SHE SPENDS $100,000 A MONTH ON LIVING EXPENSES, NOT COUNTING HAVING TO PAY KEVIN CHILD SUPPORT AND PAYING FOR HIS ATTORNEYS.
she really effed up. hannah montana will have 1 billion dollars(just like dr. evil) when she is britney's age. although britney claims to hate what "they" made her to be, she could never survive without the queen lifestyle she is accustomed too. funny, how she doesn't hate the money part of her destiny….the two cannot exist independently, maybe "they" weren't such bad guys after all? maybe, "they" are just like you, britney: greedy and selfish.
wow…if you knew anything perez (which you obviously dont) its that the New York Times publishes some of the most biased, onesided stories of all News publications….."respectable?"….hardly….your an idiot.
She is just a sloopy aging kid star with a double chin and zits all over her mouth and face. She will never be anything like what she was.
I think the NY Times looked at Miss Spears primarily as a case study. You can't deny her celebrity status or name recognition. That girl is the luckiest human being in the world—-she's made a fortune despite the lack of intelligence or talent. She's like that movie "SIMONE." She's only what other people have made her.
I think even in Hollywood most people are scratching their head and wondering how in the hell she ever got there.
Psh, ever since the NY Times ran that article about McCain that turned out to be blatantly false, that paper has lost a lot of credibility.
LMFAO…
Anyone who is sitting here talking about how broke she is or will be is a complete idiot. Britney Spears is still bringing in more dough than just about any other active singer, folks. The article isn't about how she's broke, it's about how she's spending.
Britney Spears' estate is still worth around $50 million dollars. Trust me, she will not go broke in her lifetime, nor will her kids or her children's kids. Don't believe everything you read, people. Sheesh.
"The very respectable New York Times… WTF are you smoking?? the Times has lost all its respectability in the past few years. they have proved themselves to steal work from others… or just make it up completely. The Times is now nothing more then an "upscale" National Enquirer.
Wake up and smell the coffee…
no wonder shes gotta pay for k-feds lawyer,bodyguards(why does he need them?) and fit his bills cause he's a no good loser sperm donor! He's bleeding her dry! Get a job already !!!!!!!!!!! wannabee rapper!
Re: Hannah=olsen twains –
You're a moron. Miley Cirus has far less talent than Britney Spears. Anyone who has seen Britney develop from a child to now knows that the talent IS THERE, she would just rather produce a more pop vibe. Get off it.
The very respectable New York Times??? Are you kidding me? How many times has it come out that they fabricated stories to sell papers? Not just John McCain either. Remember when that reporter came out and said most of his stories were made up? I dont really think any media outlet is "respectable" anymore.
The New York Times is not respectable. They're practically a step up from the National Enquirer.
the very respectable new york times?!!? have you not been watching the news?? they wrote a totally BUNK article on john mccain and are refusing to respond about it!
The New York Times is NOT a respectable newspaper and if you read much beyond People, Us and Star, you'd know that. EVERYONE should take EVERYTHING they print with a grain of salt.
So I just read the article..
[b]No where in the article does it hint that Britney Spears is going "broke" by any means.[/b] This article is more or less just about how she's not raking in AS MUCH dough as she used to. [b]Britney Spears is no where near broke.[/b]
====================================================
"The very respectable New York Times"
THAT'S A JOKE, RIGHT???????????
"The very respectable New York Times"
hahahahaha, since when?
This is ridiculous. That girl earns more money before she's even brushed her teeth in the morning than most people do all year. I seem to remember a similar bullshit story like this not too long ago.
Ok Perez…"poor britney just cant get a break" uh thats right she cant w.people like u who talk shit 24-7 and now that shes getting better u root for her??? It doesnt go that way pal. Just leave her alone, YOU were the worst one.
I don't love her or hate her…she slowly slipped away from reality and spent a bunch and/or got ripped from all the dingleberries/klingons in her life. Sad, but, she is working hopefully back to sanity. Given that there are so many people without clean water and access to food….mmmmmmmmmmmm, no pity here…
the times is NOT respectable…that whole john mc cain thing had no proof and was unsubstantiated….a few months back they even had a reporter making up stories…give me a break perez!
wth is going on at the new york times? it USED to be a respectable paper but its pretty obvious that its going down hill pretty fast these days. why are they reporting on britney's finances? there's a war and election going on and they're righting about britney. pathetic
"she can't catch a break." wtf??
is catching a break like catching the effing flu.. some bug that is going around.. this irresponsible, unaccountable, little twit needs to grow the fuck up
end of story. period.
THAT GIRL IS DEFINITELY NOT GOING BROKE ANYTIME SOON!
I dont think shes gone broke at all.
but im really happy that shes ge
