From the Dec. 27, 2012, Y! Music "Jimmy Buffett Worth $400 Million."
I wonder how much of that he has gotten from me as I sit here with just about every album and CD he's ever put out.
He was born Christmas Day, 65 years ago "The Christmas War Baby Turned Island Boy On the Day W.C. Fields Died.
As far as earnings, he is behind Paul McCartney and Bono, but ahead of Elton John and Mick jagger.He has had no songs in Billboard's Top Pop 40 since 1979 (and didn't have a whole lot before that) although he did have a #1 Country Song with "It's Five O'Clock Somewhere" nine years ago.
Owns the Margaritaville chain of restaurants, retail stores, hotels and nigh clubs. His Margaritaville in the Flamingo in Las Vegas is "the top grossing restaurant in the nation" making some $43 million a year.
Of course, his concerts are legend with his rabid partying Parrot Heads, but I wouldn't know anything about that.
