Just to add a little to what Jo said...

I'm NOT a beautiful young lady that made a fortune on the stage...but...

Two years ago, I was a successful Database Administrator making a decent salary. I developed migraines, went on disability, lost my job, my truck, and have nearly lost my house. I'm now a successful Dairy Manager in a local grocery store, earning about 1/4 of my previous salary. My migraines have subsided (just have occasional symptoms, but no full blown migraines in quite a while) but my cognitive abilities have been severely compromised. I can no longer concentrate at the level required for the type of work that I did before. So I know that I can't return to my good paying and rewarding career. I'm not saying that this is comparable to what happened to Britney, or any other child star... just throwing the possibility out there.
