Cleese: Lack of interest cost me dear

- BY MARK JEFFERIES

JOHN Cleese admits he is only still working because he’s been so careless with his cash down the years.

The Monty Python star is currently on a Q&A tour at the age of 82 and has performed almost 40 shows in a number of countries across the world.

Cleese – who has forked out £25milllion in three divorce settlement­s – says he regrets not taking an interest in money matters.

He said: “I never understand money and I don’t find it very interestin­g, which is a real disadvanta­ge.

“I advise anybody who is a bit vague about it to become less vague because it has cost me quite a lot.

“You need to get interested in your own interest, even if you’re not that interested.”
