How much is he worth? $70 million? I’m sure that’s a long term endowment and not a lump sum.

More by a factor of 10 - Forbes had him at $750 million a few years ago. He profited greatly by the sale of the 'Beats By Dre' headphone line to Apple several years ago.

He owns the BEATS music line. Gotta be worth a Billion or more.

Either that or OWNED it and sold it to apple for several billion. I forget.

70 million for a new wing? Lots of kids benefit and one kid gets in because of it. There’s worse deals going on.

DRE = 820 million
Jimmy Iovine = 950 million (2016)

They could afford it. Got a nice tax deduction no doubt.

He sold Beats to Apple for $3 billion, unsure what portion of that went to Dr. Dre. However, part of his proceeds was $400 million dollars worth of Apple stock that went to Dr. Dre, that was 2014 valuation which has multiplied since then. The man is filthy rich.
