An entrepreneur? Wow, can we come visit you somewhere? We really respect people who are successful as well, and since you're an entrepreneur, we want to come visit you.

You didn't start this thread, you god damn idiot. Are you smoking weed right now??? Oh wait, I'm sorry I forgot, you're an entreprenuer, you have lots of disposable income, so you're probably snorting coke through $1000 bills.

NHL009, I apoligize for everything I said, I really respect you and your disposable income. Being an entreprenuer is something we should all look up to.

C'mon, mods. Just get rid of this loser already. Alot of good posters are getting baited and he's clearly here just to stir the pot. Nice troll job, I admit, but just end it already.

Well, why don't you just type what you mean then? That would be the smart thing to do. It's stupid to type one thing but mean another.

I think Mj SUCKED after 1993. He was done, but his albums had that appeal. You could play a song from the 80's and people love it.

His songs pretty much will stand the rest of time.

How can he have over 30 out of the top 50 songs after he dies? 400 Million debt cleared in less than 2 months.
Look at what happened to the Beatles Album Sales after John Lennon died. There was even a peak when George Harrison died. I would expect that the Beatles total album sales will probably double when Paul McCartney dies.

Its great that you can know songs from the 80's. Remember that Jackson had massive exposure due to the MTV generation that wasn't available to the Beatles who gained their popularity through Radio in a age when there was a strong anti rock and roll revolution in the beginning.

While Jackson had a massive video based machine pushing his stuff, the Beatles needed one appearance on the Ed Sullivan show to become the biggest band on the planet.

The Beatles sold their albums and concert tickets based on their musical ability, Michael Jackson rose to prominence with multi million dollar music videos that were more about his dance steps then his music.

On the debt front its unlikely that his debt will be cleared up that quickly as there are more bills to come on top of his current 500 million dollar debts. While Sony will certainly re-release albums or create a zillion greatest hits packages most of that money will go directly to Sony and a much smaller percentage to the Jackson Estate.

The other massive venture would be to turn Neverland Ranch into a sort of Grace Land, however the Jackson Estate no longer owns it, it was signed over to Colony Capital.

There will also be a massive fight over any of the remaining trusts and cash that were supposedly set aside for the children. On top of that the IRS is going to go after any tax issues that are not part of his current debt and they are also going to asses estate taxes.

At the end of the day, while there will probably be a lot of Michael Jackson merchandise, videos and records, probably very little of it will go towards servicing his debt, on top of that the only thing that he still owned of value which was his library of copyrighted songs are 50% owned by Sony and they will probably move to secure the other half for less then Jackson's debt load.

Doesn't mean I'm a fanboy. I like all artists.
Except Johnny Cash?

Too bad you didn't go to Vegas when he went broke a couple of years ago and had to sell a lot of his personal items. Most things didn't even sell as hardly anyone showed up.

Best post I seen here.

You think he just made great music videos? I think he's known for that, but he had a great voice, etc.

It's already been reported that his songs now will pay off his debt within 6 weeks.

I didn't say you were lying, I implied that constantly telling people you're rich and an entrepenuer on a message board is silly, unless there was a thread titled "Are you an entrepenuer and have lots of disposable income?", then it would be more appropriate.
