Nickelodeon actress Jennifer Hyatt Tedmori pulled back the curtain on life after child star status.
Tedmori, 37, warned social media followers earlier this week about a “crashout incoming” as she sifted through residual checks from her time on the popular kids’ sitcom, “Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide.”
“POV: You were on a TV show 20 years ago and a random envelope still shows up in your mailbox,” she captioned a video before revealing the paltry sum.

“Time to open my latest Ned’s Declassified residual checks,” Tedmori wrote. “Residual checks are one of those weird parts of being a child actor that people are always curious about, so I figured I’d open them with you.”
She added, “Who’s ready to find out if I’m buying coffee… or a yacht?”
Holding a thick stack of unopened mail, Tedmori explained her woes with the television world.
“I have been procrastinating opening this for months because it is a b—-h,” she told her followers. “Some of these could be a penny, some of these could be $5.”
After opening a piece of mail and detailing the episode she was receiving the check for, Tedmori revealed a two-cent paycheck.
“All of two cents,” she said. “See. All this paper I’m just littering in my car … I know, hard times. The economy is s— … keep it. I don’t want it.”

Tedmori continued opening mail where she received a .63 cent check, and another check for “video projects and school clubs” returned a three-cent check.
“Don’t come for me about throwing away a nickel,” she urged her followers. “Now I get it. It’s been a long time. I’m surprised I’m getting anything. But three cents? It costs you 75 cents to send this envelope.”

“So for ‘Ned’s Declassified,’ that earned me a grand total of $8.63,” she said while holding a microphone in her car. “With ‘90210,’ $30.06. Maybe I can go buy a coffee at Starbucks.”
She added, “Do I even report this to the IRS? They’re not even going to give a f—.”
