I went to the Star Trek Convention last week - it was my first time there and I had a blast. Overall a great experience and it’s safe to say I have some new friends that I’m looking forward to seeing again next year. At the same time, I found all of the cash-only photos and signatures with the actors to be pretty sad/disappointing in a lot of ways.

I wrote an article about my experience, curious to hear what people think about it.

    I think you sorely overestimate how much working actors make. Lots of actors, even those on Star Trek, fall into the middle class and that’s if they’re working regularly. Very few actors, percentage wise, are multi-millionaires.
