Sydney Sweeney, despite rising fame from Euphoria, revealed financial struggles in a July 2022 interview. Raised middle-class, she began acting at 13 and sought consistent work due to the absence of financial support. Working on successful projects didn’t alleviate her financial burdens, as salaries have decreased and streaming has diminished residual payments. Monthly expenses include 5% to her lawyer, 10% to her agents, and costs for a publicist that exceed her mortgage. Brand endorsements are essential for her financial stability, emphasizing her need to diversify income streams beyond acting alone.
"Even after working on a hit HBO show, which did allow her to buy a house in LA, money was tight. They don't pay actors like they used to, and with streamers, you no longer get residuals."
"I have to give 5% to my lawyer, 10% to my agents, 3% or something like that to my business manager. I have to pay my publicist every month, and that's more than my mortgage."
