Ex-TVB actor Paul Che, who was once bankrupt, could not afford to pay for his mum’s funeral

This is a far cry from his days of being in debt and had to file for bankruptcy. With no work and income, he owed months in rental arrears and was evicted by his landlord.When he first entered showbiz four decades ago, he “committed all the major taboos in the entertainment industry”.“When word spread, who would want to hire you?" said Paul.The reason? TVB only offered him an annual salary of HK$2,000 if he were to re-contract with them. Yes, HK$2,000 a year.

Paul would often arrange to meet potential clients at karaoke bars and after talking shop, they would continue to make merry. He racked up more than HK$300,000 in credit card debt and was forced to file for bankruptcy.Bankrupt and penniless, Paul could not even afford her funeral expenses.
