I stopped selling so often because of it. [ more ]

They did mention the Dept responsible but I forget (me age you you know) So with that in mind I think it's a Data protection thing and surely they shouldn't be allowed to go through a third pary anyway to sell to insurance companies, and then again....aren't we all supposed to be truthful anyway?

Enthusiastic Contrafibularities Originally Posted by Cold Sweat: A less lucrative contract than the one Jennifer Aniston had on Friends more than a decade ago. Yes, massive salaries/contracts have been common in Tinseltown for many, many years. It staggers me when I hear actors can demand £20M, £30M or more for a film. In recent years TV seems to have developed a higher stays in the US and what actors earn has gone hand in hand with this. Edit: Yes I also think these massive payoffs for actors are obscene.
