Didn’t have enough. His estate is worth, what? 100m? thats less than 1%. Most people should have 10% of wealth tied up in gold/silver/ammo/food/booze/life insurance/toilet paper/cash.

Considering his estate this is like putting your pocket change on your endtable.

the “Purple Reign” icon had exactly zero dollars worth of “stocks, bonds and other securities.”

His estimated net worth was $300M according to my googling. Where was the other $299M? If you say real estate, then how did he manage taxes, insurance, staffing, upkeep etc., without a large cash flow?

That is entirely plausible considering his overall wealth.

“all your money won’t another minute buy.”

Died alone on drugs in an elevator after leading a perverted life.
He can keep it, too much money can warp some people badly.
