Comment: I know that MJ has amassed a fortune down through the years. There is much debate about how much he is worth. In my humble opinion there has got to be some element of truth that MJ does indeed have money woes. From my observation he is extremely extravagant, his taste in decor leads me to believe that he is channeling the spirit of Liberace. All jokes aside, he has recently agreed to sale the Beatles song catalog back to Paul MacCarthey, there is always news about him been sued for this or that and it always involves non payment, or usually they make the payment at the last minute. Now I know MJ gets lots of money from his royalties but I think MJ has a fiscal problem of late, he is spending more than he is earning. I wouldn't like for him to lose his momentos but business is business.

Comment: I don't know about selling his catalog but he sure as hell ought to be coming up with something to secure their memorabilia. If anyone deserves to make money off of it - it is the rightful owners.

Comment: Well, I hadn't heard the retraction about the Beatle Catalog, but there is something amiss with MJ's finances because brother never pays bills on time and a lot of his s.hit was almost shut down until a last minute payment arrangement. I don't want the brother to be broke but if he continues on the path he's on the money will eventually dry up.

Comment: Even without the "retraction" regarding the Sony/ATV, you have to ask yourself: "How Many Times Have You Heard That Michael Jackson Is Selling That Catalogue". Everytime you turn around, somebody somewhere is saying that MJ is selling his 50%. I personally first heard that rumor in 2003, then in 2004, then in 2005, then again in 2006. LOL!

Comment: I don't get it. Did the first owner obtain this stuff legally like the owner of the storage facility where Whitney Houston abandoned her stuff?

Comment: I won't believe MJ is broke till he sells the Beatles Catalog. Till then he has money. Plus, doesn't he make money from the artists on Sony?

Comment: For the last time folks...Michael Jackson owns 50% of the Beatles catalog, a certain percentage of his own catalog and a host of other catalogs i.e., Elvis Presley and Sly Stone. Why can't you people get it? This man is so filthy rich it's ridiculous. The catalogs of which he partly owns are of the highest selling artists in the world. Thriller is the biggest selling album in the world ever and it's still selling!!! This man's not close to broke. So, why does he have to live beneath his privileges? He should be able to buy whatever he wants, he worked and earned the money and made some very wise investments. Why is it so tough to give the man his props? The man is a genius, on and off the stage. Let's just call it what it is. Then, he's generous man and a giver from his heart. God honors giving...which may be why he's not in prison. If you plant good seeds, you'll reap good.

Comment: it was joe and Katherine that had a business venture that went abust and these things were in a warhouse under their names.. Mike is involved because some of his things were in storage too so the Jackson with the most famous name is the one that the media is going to hang on too.. his stuff is worth the most...he had nothing to do with the storage and the payment .. ones in his family did.. when this 1st surfaced, the man was fighting for his life. I think the lawyer that was to take care of this got paid and sat on his %*$ so the judge threw Mike's part of the case out. Anyways, I hope he gets his things back. As for the Beatles catalog, Mike owns 50% just like Sony and he owns 100% of his Mijac Publishing so don't believe the hype. Broke black men don't get invited to a princess house in Bahrain to live in a Palace.

Comment: Also Mike is suing the accountant firm that was pocketing $2mil a year and not paying his bills. now if you can be robbed for that much money, pay all the shyt he has to pay, own all the property he owns and yet still not file any bankruptcy papers.. then you know them pockets are deep!

Comment: Great points to mention Yasmine1 and lawdhepmypeoples. I truly believe that Michael is innocent of all the bad things that people accuse him of and put him on trial for. I was amazed that he was aqiutted on ALL, ALL, ALL, ALL counts of his last trial, but obviously GOD is at work in his life. If he was doing bad things to people, especially innocent kids, it would come back to him in a Big and Bad way. They are attempting to Lynch Michael Jackson in a modern day sense, to no avail. Michael is strange and makes bad decisions when it comes to people that he brings into his fold, but he is not Broke and is still "BAD". They are just Mad as Hell because he's better than thier "Elvis" or "Beetles"!

Comment: AND Michael Jackson is the Best entertainer that I have seen in concert, Ever!
