So basically what i'm saying is that unless they are actually musical geniuses who are prepared and able to evolve with pop music they have a shelf life of only a few years.....

spending 20 million on a house is all well and fine as long as you continually have millions coming in to maintain it and keep on living the lifestyle.... but if you stop selling albums by the truck load you're gonna be fucked pretty quickly

They always put a lot of really expensive but unnecessary stupid shit in the house too. Like one rapper I saw had a solid gold toilet. Why?

You can get one of the computer operated ones that heat, spray, wipe, whatever for cheaper. Then they have to pay for all their family and friends. Money just ends up going to nothing.

It's alright if you can take your money and invest it in something that will make you money when your music career is finished.

150 million net worth to zero in 7 years, nice job

To match the other fixtures?

I just read that sting makes over 700k per year for royalties from "every breath you take".

Maybe 50's not so bad off after all.

that's pretty unexpected but than again, if you aren't making investments than its bound to go sometime... with a "house" like that!

Unwise investments perhaps?

He's likely declaring himself bankrupt to avoid paying the 5mil he owes. Very common practise among uber rich douche nozzles.
