Nicolas Cage made headlines this week for falling into financial ruin, as he reportedly owes the IRS $6.3M in back taxes, has been frantically selling his real estate properties, and has homes in New Orleans that are now in foreclosure. Yet Cage is a well-known Hollywood actor who often commands $20M a movie, and has earned hundreds of millions of dollars over his career. So what everyone wants to know is: where did the money go?
