Basicaly, Geinoujin live off their company tab, and the official "earnings" they get are in
reality just a bit of pocket change.

The net offect is that they become beholder to their employer, and have little independance.
That's true for most American Pop Musicians too. They have little or no money of their own, but ton's of perks, such as houses, cars, and maids. But once they leave that lifestyle they get nothing or end up owing. A very good example is the movie 'That thing you do' where Tom hanks plays the manager of a new upcoming #1 group. When it was over, they had less than what they started with.

But REC the anime shows just how little most VA's have especially when they are starting out.
