what do you think?...he made somewhere around 50 million from the musicology tour..his catalogue..he lost money, made money...what's your best edumacted guess on how much $$ Prince has these days...?

i hope he's got enough to set up a decent online download store

i don't think even he knows.

What does it really matter? We'd still love the man even if he didn't have a penny to his name. You can't put a price on talent.

But for the sake of the thread, I dunno... I'd figure with the 30 or so albums he's done he'd be a billionaire.

Again, it makes no difference to me, but the guy is definitely RICH

Yeas..at least 100 mill..I remember reading in Ebony Mag back in 83-84..he was worth 35 million from the release of 1999....

thekidsgirl said:

honestly .. I believe 156 Million

uh, don't u guys KNOW the formula?

Prince is worth $204,871,573. and 83 cents.

No way could Prince have been worth that much after the release of 1999. Didn't he have serious financial issues in the 90s? I heard he was damn near bankrupt.

The above poster said in 83-84 the 90's hadn't happened yet. After the release of the album 1999.

Id say : $175 Million.

Probably more..

scriptgirl said:

Hey that number surprised me too..but if you can..look it up, if ebony mag has any kind of archives on the net or maybe at your local library. When I saw 35 mill way back in the early 80's I was like damn, Prince making some serious cheese under the radar so ta speak....He's not on the cover, but it was an article titled something like americas richest entertainers or something like that....

He's definetly a multi-millionaire, and will be worth many times that when he's gone, it's always that way!

My math came up with $204,871,573 and 73 cents.

Illustrator said:

It's interesting that whenever there's a list of top richest entertainers, I don't think I remember P ever being mentioned.

But yeah, dude has lotsa .

I think he's PRICELESS

amen- talent doesn't have a $$ attached 2 it. aside from the money from the albums, you have concerts, collectible items. Prince is rich in $$, talent, connections (the ppl he knows),etc.

wlcm2thdwn said:

yes indeed

dont forget to subtract what Manuela took away.

He's worth his weight in gold.

LexNevermind said:

He was on their list again in the late 90's. He was name one of the highest paid black entertainers.

he would make so much money starting up a "ptunes.com" imagine a website with all the material he's every recorded available for download...



that site would crash everyday.

financially i think it would be worth it for him. if done right

I wouldn't have any idea. I mean he's made a lot but we also know he's probably lost some on some deals, like maybe when he was running his Paisley Park Record imprint and like nobody was buying the people on his label.

They're rare as hell now but I don't know that that means people bought them then.
