Go read about recent report on Johnny Depp. That’s a holy shit level of spending and waste.

Drugs and alcohol can evaporate a pile of money of almost any size.

That, and going through life like he's a Saudi prince. The recent Rolling Stone article says he blows through $2M a month.

Spending $2M a month could result in some awesome memories (as long as you don't kill yourself after you spend it).

There's no doubt he was burning the candle at both ends (and ftr, I loved the guy.)

He's also known as stupidly loyal to people he does like.

I think his twisted gf might have pulled him out into deep waters...

Not great for an addict.

That said his twitter was much more "curt" than his TV reviews.

And he had a strange relationship with his current gf and normal daddy issues with his daughter.

I think his death is sketchy but I would lean more towards the GF than "omg Hillary kilt him for his twitter!"

Sorry, I was referencing Depp in my post. I think Frazod was too.

It's easy to blow through a ton of money when you love to party and love when everyone has a good time when you are.

Trust me i know. But i wouldn't trade the times. Money can be made any time.

My bad - late to the game.

I'm not sure how Depp (other than being really odd lately) fits in. Fill me in if you don't mind.

It was just recently revealed that Bourdain didn't have nearly the assets one would expect, leading to speculation where his wealth went.

In other recent news, Depp has notoriously depleted an immense fortune [on a scale of $3/4B (with a B)] with lavish spending habits. So people were drawing connections between Depp's spending and Bourdain's apparent spending.

I sleep around 3 hours a day and do nothing but that.

But I'm also the resident conspiracy advocate.

Yes, I've read it. You tell me what you think...

“My mom was born in a ****ing holler in eastern Kentucky,” says Depp. “Her poor ****ing ass was on phenobarbital at 12.”

Says a lot to me.
