Gary Coleman’s name is synonymous with one phrase: “whatchu’ talkin’ bout’ Willis?” The former actor’s career took off when he starred in the series Diff’rent Strokes. He was even NBC’s highest paid comedic actor at one point. Sadly, Coleman had reoccurring health issues and didn’t manage his money right throughout his career.
Coleman would later sue his family for $1.3 million, but he exhausted that money within a decade dealing with his health. When he died in 2010, the 42-year-old was nearly penniless.
