Jean-Marie Bigard said he lost his wealth due to taxes and believed he received a minimum pension. What’s worth checking out…

Jean-Marie Bigard doesn’t really like taxes. And he makes it known regularly. Guest of TPMP on C8 last Sunday to promote his show, “I stopped the bull”, from October 12, the comedian had some confidences about his personal finances. At 70, he talks seriously about his life as a retiree and has been in French show business. “I’m no longer the star of the zoo, but people still stand in front of my cage,” he laughs with a rather melancholy touch: “People thank me for existing, even if I’m not here now more than one.”

The words of Cyril Hanouna cannot be left unanswered. “I like this guy because he is unique […] You are a superstar, you don’t know. You say it’s a piece of shit, but I think it’s crazy”, he said in a declaration of love to his ex-boyfriend, not shying away from surprising declarations and controversies. Enough to touch the heart of Jean-Marie Bigard, who appeared with tears in his eyes.

The comical announcements on his finances make him more crude, even if he is teary and even whiny side. During his career, Jean-Marie Bigard said he had drawn between 80 and 100 million euros and even estimates to have had “100,000 euros per day” during his Zéniths tour in his prime. . “Where did everything go wrong? At Michel Barnier’s!”, then he added, referring to the tax that he would have “killed like a lemon”.

“I don’t pay taxes in the islands, my conclusion is that when you pay everything as a loyal citizen of mine, in fact you have nothing left,” he cried. Discussing the amount of his retirement, the comedian lamented that he only gets “6,000 rupees a month”, the amount he could have halved if he wasn’t a writer. “We don’t pay the actors, we only pay the writers. If I wasn’t a writer, I would have been entitled to around 3,000 pension,” he said.

Cyril Hanouna probably did not find it necessary to remind you: the average pension cost in France is barely more than 1,500 euros per month, according to the 2023 edition of the annual Panorama “Pensioners and pensions” published by Drees. And according to the INSEE Tax and Social Income Survey, the median living wage of pensioners living in mainland France (excluding nursing homes) is 1,900 euros per month. It is also higher than the median income for the entire population, which is 1,840 euros per month.

Internet users remember him on social networks. “6000 euros, poor guy, will end up in the soup kitchen,” one user wrote on Twitter. “I don’t know if you know how lucky you are.
