Who is Jet Li and why do his finances affect you?

 

[JeffreyLebowski]

he was a Shaolin monk at some point, which means he would have to have given up all his worldly possesions. Now I think he is a Capatist just like everyone else and has plenty of money.

How hard would it have been to do a Google search like I just did?

JET LI REFUTES "MONK" RUMOR
(3/22/2004 12:11PM)
Jet Li was in Shanghai on March 18 for the Chinese Top 10 Best Sportsman award, where he was one of the special personalities to give the award. He was asked by reporters regarding the rumor that he will quit acting and become a full fledged monk. Jet Li officially denied and stated that this is only a rumor, and that he has been studying buddhism years and doesn't need to become a monk to studdy Buddha.

So there we have it, straight from Jet Li, he will continue his acting career

It's a common misconception about Buddhism, that you have to give away your earthly possessions to study buddhism. Buddhism teaches about "freedom from attachments", basically as a buddhist, he could own a nice Armani suit. But if someone stole it, he isn't going to miss it.

Sure, but a devout Buddhist wouldn't buy an Armani suit. He or she would only buy clothes as a means to not be naked, and not for any persona or style whatsoever.

I think Jet Li is fake. He is made up by the media.
