On the program prince's millions, they say he is sumwhere like £107million

He was broke and in debt just a decade ago (1995). His biggest year ever was 1998 in which he made $23 million (although I suspect he will make more in 04) and he had a couple of years since then with virtually no income so....who knows

Britney has little to no talent and is worth that much? Where's my piece of the pie??

Ok lets do some math! Prince just said he gets all the money for his albums, NPG Records is him & he is it. So lets just give a fun idea of what he might be worth since he took over his career

All in world wide sales
95-TGE- 856,023

95-Girl 6- 427,000

95-Chaos and Disorder- 682,034

96- Emancipation 742,030 (in us but counted as 2 million) (originally around $11,000,000 before they lowered the price)

98- Crystall Ball- over 248,942 ($32..$7,966,144)

98- NPS- 322,122 ($12..$3,865,464)

99- NPG New Masters- 350,234 ($2..$700,468)

99- Rave Un 2 The Joy Fantastic- 688,212 (world wide) ($9,000,000)

00- Very Best of Prince- 1 million world wide

01- TRC 289,045 ($12..$3,468,540)

02- ONA- 295,033 ($40..$11,801,320)

03- NEWS- OVER 90,000 (so far) ($12.. $1,080,000)


Total: $48,881,936 in 8 years

*Plus
$100 each for a NPGMC membership (400,000 Members at now $25 =$10,000,000)
$50-$125 per seat at Concerts
$20-$100 per seat at concerts (this is 1996-1999)
50%-90% of the Merch at Concerts & Online

now add Musicology Album & TOUR!!! Prince just said he has basically the same type deal with the Album as he did with Rave. ($9 Million)

NOW add the Tour! Prince announced this tour way before he had a record label distributing Musicology the Album! he already was booking dates! So I can't see SONY getting a cut. If that is the case Prince is making just on Tickets around $1.1 Million -$1.5 Million PER NIGHT. So just on the American Leg of the Tour he is probably going to make around $50 Million.

NOW think about if he goes overseas with the Tour!

Prince has to have around $200-$300 Million because I am not even thinking of what he had from 1978-1994

IF Prince toured Musicology the rest of this year & ALL of next & it keeps almost selling out 80-90% of the time. He might make $200 Million off the tour alone. damn he also owns the Merchandise too $50 Bucks a T Shirt which costs him like $2 bucks tops

and Londell makes 15% of everything in any case as the manager.

TedW said:

When did Londell become his "manager". I know he is his lawyer but I thought one of the big deals for Prince in the last 20 years was getting rid of having a manager (Steve Fargnoli) and managing himself (and advising young musicians to do the same) but drawing on business and legal advice from people on a needs basis. That means Londell gets paid per job (probably on a hourly rate).
