I have a who is a screen actor and they often work for very little pay. Even a recurring character on a hit TV show might not even be making enough to afford health insurance.
This friend recently landed a small but important role in a movie that gained somewhat of a "cult" status after its release. The money he makes from selfies and autographs at conventions is sometimes the only money he earns that month. I can see why it disappoints fans, but I can also understand these actors who are just trying to stay afloat. Especially the Trek actors who often don't seem to get much other work.
That's totally fair but in this case all the actors signing autographs are multi-millionaires. Totally different I agree if it's a much smaller actor but the Star Trek Convention definitely didn't provide a platform for smaller actors, only the big ones.
I don't known if you've been paying attention to the SAG strike, but it's been really eye opening for me! Of course it sucks to pay 10$ for an autograph from a millionaire, but I wouldn't assume to know how much they all actually make from acting gigs.
