Whether they were born rich or clawed their way to stardom, celebrity financial ruin knows no bounds.

And Americans love to watch the mighty fall.

Between his creepy ex-marriage to Carmen Electra, the nutty 'dos and even zanier head gear, it's hard to remember exactly what it was about Dennis Rodman that ever made him famous in the first place.

Oh yeah, basketball

The former Chicago Bull has been off the court for years and has had trouble affording two things: his reported alcohol and drug addiction and more than $800,000 in unpaid child support, according to ABC news.

Might as well add legal expenses to that, too, as his attorney said Rodman "is broke and cannot afford any additional fees."

Aka Teresa Giudice, the housewife and mother of four declared bankruptcy in 2010 with more than $9 million in debt. Her home went into foreclosure the same year. 

What's funny is how she explained the situation to People: "What is true is that due to the economy, most of my husband’s real estate ventures failed despite his hard work."

One episode of her show featured her getting breast implants and showering her daughter with new clothes and acting classes. 



Patrick Bateman – "American Psycho"

A bad role model for financiers everywhere. This quote just about sums it up:

"I have all the characteristics of a human being: flesh, blood, skin, hair; but not a single, clear, identifiable emotion, except for greed and disgust. Something horrible is happening inside of me and I don't know why. My nightly bloodlust has overflown into my days. I feel lethal, on the verge of frenzy. I think my mask of sanity is about to slip."
