Pay attention to your taxes
However, Smith is also characterized by his generosity and his recurring contribution to certain worthy causes, as was the case with the donation of $900,000 made a few years ago to the Make-A-Wish Foundation, the Lupus Foundation and the the Baltimore School of the Arts. .
Life taught the Hollywood actor to be disciplined with his finances after the unpleasant experience he had towards the end of 1990 when, after earning $10 million and spending the vast majority of that amount, he was notified that he had not paid $2.8 million in taxes and had to catch up.
