Depending on her rate, sure, but you don't get consistent paychecks at your rate every other week when you're an actor. You get paid that amount for the 6-10 weeks that you may be on set filming.
That's what happens when you're in a gig industry. They'll get a good role and make $100K in 3 months, not have a job for 7 months, and get a commercial or two at the end of the year that'll score them an extra couple thousand for the holidays. Meanwhile, they're stretching their cash until the role they scored that starts at the beginning of the new year.

I can they don't get paid hourly and small actors are almost always broke unless their family has money.
