Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

From about "nothing" to "not very much"!.

If your goal is to be a professional actor and have that be your sole career, you will have to be union!. In the meantime, as an "aspiring actor" you will not make near enough to support yourself, in fact it is extremely likely that you will spend much more than you make because you will need to do free projects like students films, short, indies and community theatre to build up your resume while at the same time be spending money on things like classes, headshots, gas for driving to/from rehearsals and auditions and a multitude of other things!.

If your non-union and just starting out, don't even worry about money right now, just worry about building up your resume to be competitive with all the other aspiring actors out there!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
