Charlie Sheen might be broke

When Charlie Sheen got on twitter, he made a big point of mentioning that he was unemployed now and that twitter is “a cash cow” for celebrities who get paid to tweet ads. Which was weird considering Two and a Half Men paid him 2 million dollars an episode.

Well brace yourself for the shock of a lifetime but it turns out Charlie Sheen might not have handled his money wisely. Popeater says…

Sheen is making his fight against CBS and Warner Bros. about defending his honor, but sources very close to the actor tell me the real reason is the guy is “cash poor” and desperately needs the money to maintain his vast, complicated estate.
“Charlie has earned an enormous amount of money with this show, but he has also spent a fortune and now finds himself in the very tricky position of being cash poor.”

Sheens plan to sue is dumb, because he was absolutely in violation of his contract, but it’s amazing he even came up with that. I’m genuinely astounded that his plan didn’t involve shape shifting and kidnapping Mr. Burns.
