Charlie Sheen is unstable?

If Charlie Sheen is unstable...it appears that he inherited that trait.

I would like to see that movie, "The Way". I don't give a damn about some celebrity's politics, but that movie looks pretty good.

Hypothesis:

The per capita income for hollywood actors is higher than the per capita income for corporations.

Accoring to the BLS:

Independent Artists, Writers, and Performers make an average hourly salary of $43/hour --- or around $90,000/yr. (Forbes says that Sheen is well above average - with around $40 million/yr)

According to the IRS, 5.8 million corporations reported. 342 billion dollars in income (before credits).

The average American corporation makes less than the average entertainer.

My conclusion:

I'm not a good judge of "stability" - but at minimum I would say that Sheen is mis-informed.

I suppose I'd evaluate "stability" on whether or not he's able to understand a simple fact:
Sheen makes more than the average corporation

And actors employ few if any other people....(maybe a hooker or two in Charlie's case)
