But it clearly worked out for him, I mean we see him on new media all the time! What, you can’t think of anything? Just Google his name!

I literally thought that was Steve from Gamers Nexus.

I mean he was part of the main cast on Hawai Five-0 for like 6 seasons too. Credited with 130 episodes on IMDb. Dude’s probably loaded and only takes occasional roles for fun nowadays.

I think you need to do a certain amount of roles per year or whatever to stay in the actors guild.

If he was smart about investing it, he probably earned enough to retire and live at a middle-class level for the rest of his life. But, he’s probably not loaded. He wasn’t ever one of the main stars of a show, he was always a side character. Plus, lifestyle inflation is a big problem for actors. Say he was making $400k per year on Hawaii Five-O, he probably wasn’t living a modest $80k/year lifestyle and putting away 80% of his earnings.
I would bet he’s still out looking for work so he can live in a house in LA with a pool up in the hills, not in a 1 bedroom apartment in the city.

He started off at 20-40k per episode and was doing 80k per episode in season 3 of Lost, possibly more in the later seasons. More than a million a year easily. He was pretty important for a supporting cast member and they all made decent money.
Supposedly he also doesn’t like living a flashy life with fancy stuff, his treat to himself for landing the Hawaii Five-0 gig was a custom jumpsuit, not a car or watch or house.
So that got me curious and I went and checked his insta. Not a single instance of him flexing wealth or trying to be an influencer or whatever. Seems like he wanted to be the opposite of Hurley with his money

That’s great. I hope he’s basically able to pick and choose his roles these days, and not work if there’s nothing he’s interested in.
