I thought he was worth more than that. Still a nice sized estate for a guy who had one top 10 song.

Do you know any ‘parrot heads’? I’ve known a couple and they’re like ‘dead head’ grateful dead fans. A little wacky. ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ‘

Really? Springsteen, who’s way more popular, is estimated to be worth $1.2b. Don McLean of American Pie and Vincent fame might have $50m. $275m is astonishing for Buffett.

I know right. Heโ€™s lived off two shitty songs his whole life. Cheeseburger in Paradise. Yuk. And Margaritaville. Yuk. Then of course that spawned his restaurant business. Total lib dork but hey. He got his piece of the pie here.

He sold 20 million albums, was one of the top touring acts from almost 40 years, sold a lot of merchandising and was a shrewd investor. He sold the carefree beach image but was by all accounts a workaholic.

I think a large percentage came from his Margaritaville resorts.

I think like Trump, Buffett made most of his money from licensing.
