i was raised that one didn't discuss another Person's finances. Bad Manners, Unless Prince released it, then its OKAY.

If you do the converson rate for all that money, his run earned him $44,730,000 in US Dollars, A Princely Sum if there ever was one. I don't know how much he'll end up with after taxes, but I'm sure he'll be able to pay the light bill. lol

DAMN. Hopefully he'll be able to keep most of it and the Brits won't tax it all away....

on that same chart, the police earned $15M for just 2 nights, while P had to play 21 nights for $22M...

seems like P had to work awfully hard for his cash....

Also that figure doesn't take into account staff salaries and other expenses does it?

but prince manages himself, has the band members on salary etc. i gave him about $1000 of that total so i hope he is grateful. i am happy that as far as i am concerned he definately earned that money.

On the dates I was there it didn't seem like it was work for him; he was too busy enjoying himself. wink

Also, you have to think about ticket prices. I am sure the Police were asking for a lot more that £31.20 for their tickets.

It would appear that looking at the ticket prices it didn't into account the VIP tickets !!
