Most creatives are really living pay check to pay check.
I hope he has insurance but this is probably just going to cover living expenses.
Kinda sad when you think about it. I'd hate to be an all time great at something and need Gofundme support in order to cover my medical and living expenses. It kinda makes you wonder, what's the point when people with real jobs probably have a higher quality of life. I remember Nate Dogg needing Go-fund me to cover funeral expenses. My friend is a bus driver and when he's had health problems the insurance the city gives him allows him time off and he pays almost nothing for surgery.
As a DJ, I pay for my insurance every month out of pocket. Cats are playing with fire without coverage. I don’t understand being a working Dj/artist & not having health insurance. The lifestyle in itself is already taxing in itself (constant travel, late nights, little sleep, drinking regularly, smokey environments, violence) and anything can go wrong at any time.
