Actor Stephen Baldwin, known for films like The Usual Suspects and Bio-Dome, was forced into bankruptcy due to a series of questionable investments. His financial troubles stemmed largely from failing to repay loans, along with a massive tax burden.

Despite a promising acting career in the 1990s, mismanagement led him to file for bankruptcy in 2009. He struggled financially for years, even appearing on TV reality shows to maintain relevance. Since then, Baldwin has focused on faith-based initiatives and speaking engagements in an effort to rebuild his financial standing.
