Most celebrities make a lot of money, but for some odd reason they prefer to keep it to themselves, and have chosen not to pay their due taxes.
Most wait until they get hunted down by the South African Revenue Services (SARS) for unpaid taxes.

6. Jomo Sono
Three weeks ago, Briefly.co.za reported that Jomo Sono is running the risk of losing his assets after SARS obtained a judgment against him to attach his belongings. The football icon allegedly failed to pay a R40 million tax bill from 2018.
The South Gauteng High Court has granted the South African Revenue Services permission to attach Jomo Sono's assets. This follows the football icon's failure to pay a hefty R40 million tax bill imposed on him in 2018. Sono has allegedly not honored an agreement with SARS to pay the millions he owes.
The Jomo Cosmos have been included in the judgment with SARS having previously obtained a writ of execution to attach both their and their bosses assets.
