How can you make a living as a actor?

As an Actor, you'll have to take a morning job, to pay for your lifestyle. To get started, you'll need take roles as an Extra, getting paid to model in backgrounds of films, or (if you're lucky) speak for just a scene or two. Best place to start is at CentralCasting .com.

After you've built up your resume (the better roles mostly made through pro bono projects - student films, community theatre, etc.), you can seek more interactive jobs as a voice actor, commercial spokesman, or background theatre actor. The journey to success comes afterwards.
