I've known a lot of people over the past 20 years that wanted to pursue acting, took some classes, and found greener pastures once they realized how incredibly hard it is to sustain any type of career. Too many folks think they'll be making millions of dollars within a couple years of starting, having never taken a class.
The stark reality is that after the 20 years I've been doing this professionally, only in the last 5 years have I gotten to a place where I make enough to qualify for SAG-AFTRA insurance each year.
