171. REWIND: Sam on The Financial Diet, "Rejection, Nepo Babies, And Living Paycheck To Paycheck: Making It As A Working Actor"

Back in December 2022, I was asked to join The Financial Diet YouTube channel to talk about my experience as a working actor in Los Angeles. I am a long time fan of theirs, and jumped at the chance to be real about living paycheck to paycheck in a city with an incredibly high cost of living. We sat down and got honest about it all: rejection in the industry, nepo babies, and the financial realities of the Hollywood dream.
