After playing Tabitha Stephens on the beloved ABC series for over 100 episodes, she walked away with a decent amount of money.<\/p>\n \u201cPeople think you get everything or nothing. The way the laws were written back then, kid actors get something, it’s called a Coogan account, where a percentage of your money from a television show or movie is put into savings,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n Never miss a story \u2014 sign up for <\/strong>PEOPLE’s free daily newsletter<\/strong><\/a> to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer\u200b\u200b, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories.<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cIt’s only 10%. So 10% of everything I made was put into savings. My dad was an investor, so, I mean, it got the highest return. But it was 10%. The rest goes to wherever, agents or managers.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n When it came to her experience, Murphy said that 10% \u201cwas still a nice amount of money.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cWhen I turned 21, I bought a house, bought a horse, lived on a little ranch, married, started having a family. Then, Arizona, I think, still is, but was called a right-to-work state where you don’t have to be in a union to do different careers. So that’s where I started teaching acting. I thought, \u2018Oh, this will be fun.’ So I started teaching acting. I was able to be a makeup artist on big sets and work with Italian Vogue<\/em> and things like that.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n Murphy also pursued stunt work after an opportunity presented itself.<\/p>\n \u201cStunt work was kinda thrown at me because they were filming an HBO movie with Virginia Madsen, and they needed someone. She couldn’t drive a stick shift. I love cars. I could drive a stick shift. So, I don’t really look like her, but I guess enough where, you know, blonde from a distance. So, that was the first thing where I was doing stunt work,\u201d she shared.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cThen I got called in to do other things like some horse stunts and things like that because I like to live life without fear. So if, you know, they say, \u2018Erin, jump off that.’ It’s like, \u2018Well, okay.’ \u201c<\/p>\n In a recent interview, Murphy touched on whether she’d ever consider a Bewitched<\/em> reboot.<\/p>\n Addressing the fact that there’s allegedly a reboot in the “early stages” of development, per Deadline<\/a>, Murphy told New Idea<\/a>, “If they asked me to appear on the show, absolutely I would! I’d love to be included in some way, and I know fans of the original Bewitched<\/em> would enjoy that fun reference to the past.”<\/p>\n
