When a healthy lifestyle isn’t good for financial health

Fastidious Actor (FA) is known for his dedication to his craft, so much so that he’s willing to make lifestyle changes to make sure he looks the part in projects he’s cast in.

For one of his recent projects, he took it upon himself to lose weight in hopes of presenting a better, more convincing characterization.

In an event for the said project, FA proudly announced that he had made a drastic lifestyle change that he hoped to stick to long term.

He had been eating healthier, he said, and has completely ditched meat and poultry.

While his announcement was met with congratulatory messages and well wishes, people handling FA were taken aback.

They had to quickly remind FA that he endorses a company that sells the very products that he said he had shunned.

Fortunately, his handlers managed to get a hold of the situation before it could get out of hand.
