Honestly, he deserves all the money he made. His contributions to music and pop culture almost can't even be calculated. Thriller is still the #1 best selling album of all time even to this day all these years later. He set the bar.
True
Był gigantem pomocy humanitarnej .
I totally agree 🐐
Incalculable success. I don't think anyone can top him. His talent was God given IMO.
VERY true agreed 💯💯
(Paraphrasing) “Wealth is not measured by what we have, but by what we give…not by money or status or power, but by the legacy we leave for those we love and inspire.” Thank you, Mike.
💯👏👏👏👏👏
He was a hard working man ! And deserved every penny.
Slow down
@@leemontoya8028why? It’s literally true 🥴
Yes! It's true he was broke! in fact he didn't even pay his bodyguards for up to a year! he was broke! and I still love him! @@brainanchorstudios879

It always amazed me how much attention was paid to Michael Jackson's money by the media, and it was always negative. Nobody ever cared about anyone else's money as much they did his. The day he bought the Beatles catalog and became the most power person in music publishing, they came after him.
💯
+SeanWarren You already know. Dave Chappelle spoke the words in his Rick James parody.
"THEY SHOULDA NEVER GAVE YOU 'NINJAS' MONEY!!!"
ALWAYS checking our pockets. They STILL think we only work for THEIR benefit...like slaves.
Our money is not our money in their eyes. We're just holding onto it until they come to collect.
SCARED of us passing down Generational Wealth because that's Generational POWER.
And that POWER will overturn their ill-gotten Power so you know why the pocket-watchers throw interference.
He made a lot of money but so many companies made BILLIONS more OFF of MJ and yet not bad word is said about them because they are still to this day making BILLIONS off other artists.
The machine goes on.
@@AmericanNope Yep!!!!
@@SeanWarren Pepsi to this day is still making money off him, some of his shows, Vegas, Cirque du Soleil and whatnot.
Michael's contribution to the development of music is priceless. Yes, he is the highest paid artist on the planet. He is the greatest man without an analogue. He could have given a lot more to the world if not for the courts that destroyed his finances, his dreams, his hopes and so mercilessly undermined his health. Was it intentionally done by someone who remains in the shadows? I think yes!
Я считаю, что к уничтожению Майкла приложил руку Маккартни.
@@user-yr5pd3cx9j . Там были игроки покрупнее и помасштабнее.
💯 MJ had too much power & respect for one single ethnic minority man!!! That was his Real Crime ! 💔😔
@@user-yr5pd3cx9j I hope McCartney grows a taproot like a tree and lives forever. If he happens to die I hope he exits this planet with all the ill acquired wealth. If he doesn't exit with the wealth then shame on him!
Yes Michael Jackson was intentionally and systematically destroyed by people who are not lurking in the shadows but are in full glare. Thing is, they are being protected by the world power, evil world power. They are part of the evil anyway. I hope they live forever, if they ever die BIG SHAME on them.
We miss you, Michael. 🥲
We do you will be truly missed
we do 🙏🏾
So much!! 😢
Don’t miss a bad man👎🏾
@@regiment6541then why are you here
Michael Jackson's music is like comfort food: almost everyone loves it. That is why it sold so well.
yeah easy to digest i think thats the problem with a lot of artist they like to make things complicated to make them look great to many complex rhymes and structures mjs music is so f*cking simple just look at the lyrics its not even poetic but it sounds so good
im an amateur artist I think a lot of amateur artists mistakes is because they think its songwriting they focus too much on writing the words but it's not really the words you're writing sounds👌
nobody will ever replace him or even come close to him. it gives me chills even just thinking about his talent and his heart as a person, he was and IS so amazing. i love him so much
i love him too
My son who follows the music world claims Jayzee passed M.J up..... Im not sure did he?
Grammar!
nobody coz thats his personal record.
for sure 50 to 70 years from now
somebody will reach the same heights
nobody will beat elvis, the Beatles, michael jackson but somebody someday will reach the same heights probably bigger and better with all the modern technology there's a lot of outlet to sell your iconography same way mj did in the start of modern day television in late 70s
Nobody can replace anybody!
I’m not a money expert but I never thought it was a good idea for Michael to build Neverland. I can’t imagine how expensive it must’ve been to run it.
Neverland is such a childish idea, it's bonkers that everyone around him just let him do it, hoping that the money would flow forever.
@@gabedom_because when you’re the one paying EVERYONE’S bill, who are they to tell you what to purchase. I also think there were too many stable minded adults around to allow for a middle aged MJ to have sleepovers with children🤷🏽♀️ no one advice against it
@@alanabrunoSeriously!
Look up when he went shopping. That wasn’t a great idea either
Yeah I definitely agree on that he had a lot going on in Neverland ranch especially being able to keep up with all those different animals that he had their I'm surprised the city even allow for him to have all those animals there like that
I'm so happy. Many videos ago, I suggested you follow Michael's finances all the way back from the Motown days. My request has been answered. I really believe Michael's finances should be a true case study that should be taught in schools and universities.
Thank you! You’ll enjoy this series of videos then!
It should also be taught to many young artist that come in to the industry as what NOT to do with money. No matter how much you have. MJ spending habits were absurd to say the least.
MJ was not just an amazing artist; he was an amazing businessman. He understood that you need multiple streams of income in order to have staying power, and he took the world by storm with unprecedented music deals. No wonder he was one of the richest people of the 80s. Can't wait to see how this continues. Great video from the detail. Long live the king of pop. 🎉
Thank you!
i’ve always been curious to ask if his business method came from his fathers influence of the ins and outs of money and music …..
Michael seemed like a nice guy to have as a friend he was so much fun.
But that would be a nightmare if you were a little boy , you know what he would do to you .
@@levent.a.7280mccauley caulkin said mike did nothing inappropriate with him or around him
Jesus this is getting creepy if you believe he touched them why are you obsessively watching his videos I still don't understand this mindset or are you just miserable I just don't get it
Michael was an amazing unique human being. His music and his talents inspired me since middle school. NO ARTIST COULD EVER COME CLOSE TO MICHAEL. NO ONE. The music industry truly lost a star.😢
Michael’s contribution to music is priceless. He was the highest paid musician in the world. He was the biggest star in the planet. He sold the old friend Paul McCartney’s Beatles catalog that’s when people started being jealous and envious of him. Thriller was one of the biggest selling albums of all time in the history of music. We still hear it in our radio stations every day. He was influenced by The Godfather of Soul James Brown. James Brown loved Michael as much as he loved him. He came to James Brown’s funeral to paid his final respect. He still has millions of people who are die-hard fans of him. I felt his music changed my life forever. He was the lead singer of The Jackson 5/The Jacksons with his brothers as well as a solo artist. There will ever be another Michael Jackson in the history of music ever again.
he didn't even care about the money, he just wanted to be loved and wanted friends. that's all. 💔
Very true. However when you have the substantial wealth like Michael had, EVERYONE wants to be your "friend". No wonder he had trust issues in people.
He just wanted to feel loved and respected. He wanted real friendships with people and not people who are only around him for his money or take advantage of him.
Michael Jackson should have remained his Marriage with Elvis's daughter, make a child with her, and enjoy raising a family that will truly love him. Instead, he chose the weird route.
@@darkvalue505 What makes you say that? I'm merely curious.
What? I have to explain it. Michael's eccentricities got the best of him. Michael was known buying thing that he didn't need. He bought a lot of trinkets and it got the best of him. Maybe it is because of depression of the severe loneliness he had to tolerate due to his level of fame.
But if he believed that his wife and his own children will give him pure love, maybe Michael would live a private life in the 90s.@@alyssajones4368
The thumbnail looks so beautiful
Thank you!
Michael Jackson is the best philantrophist of all times and his wealth benefited the least fortunate people and those who were opportunists too.
And when he died he was 300 Million in Debt
Detail is absolutely the best place to go for mj docs.... I almost feel guilty that it’s free(almost)😂
Thank you!
He worked for it and earned it with dignity genius❤❤❤❤
Michael Jackson is a very intelligent man! - King!!!
Young, full of strength, health, enthusiasm.... he doesn’t yet know what awaits him.... I’m very sad, I’m crying.
Intelligent? When he died he was 300 Million in debt! Health? Are we talking about Micheal Jackson?
He died broke! Sorry!
@@leemontoya8028you don't get to the point he did as a black man by being stupid he was very intelligent a well known fact so don't be redundant
@@leemontoya8028and is now worth up to a billion today you don't have the kind of legal issues he had without having finally problems Sherlock 🙄

He got rich because his fans love him and his music. ❤MJ❤

@@leemontoya8028 Yes, we all know that..🙁
My jaw literally dropped at the 1986/87 royalties revenue ($80 million) and 1993 ATV catalog earnings ($26 million). What a shrewd genius.

@@leemontoya8028bc they kept coming after him bc he had too much power. they literally did everything they could to tear him down and it worked
Love you forever Michael Jackson ❤️😇💖
Великий,гениальный,умный,добрый,щедрый!!Никто его пока не заменил!!Зарабатывал большие деньги и потом их тратил на благотворительность.Практически всё отдавал детям.Зависть людей и желтая пресса погубили его .😢❤
true
The most Realistic comment I have ever seen
It's cute that there is Englsih speakers answers
Согласна
💯
He was amazing super legend earth has never owned artest like MJ ever! no he is so iconic unique talented and his charecter full of charisma and final3he is number one of humanity charity ❤️❤️ MJ4ever never die
Michael was so smart 😊
Yes very smart! when he died he was 300 Million in Debt!
One of the most ever talent that never will be beaten. He goes a long way back. He is a phenomenal man. Even at death and after.
Yo Michael is a definition successful
And when he died he was 300 Million in Debt! That is not the definition of successful!
@@leemontoya8028he is literally the most successful entertainer of all time. Please shut the hell up
He worked hard, he earned all that money through sheer hard work! Those who call him names and hate him bcoz of conspiracy theories, u are just jealousy of the biggest pop Star that ever walked this Earth! We miss you Michael.
This financial breakdown is okay, but when adjusted for inflation... it's pretty damn great!!
Thank you!
And when he died he was 300 Million in Debt
I remember the day he died. I was living in Reading, England. I used to take a bus to work. I decided to walk home that evening. My childhood idol. RIP brother.
Michael Jackson worked hard for his money.
....huh.....yyyeah you can tell this is a MAJOR reason why Mike was targeted so much by the press, allegation scams and such. He was too powerful...and vulnerable. He was so giving man, he ain't deserve that shit.... RIP, King....
💯
Great footage. The best of them all. If possible , can you upload videos about Michael Jackson the businessman, it is very inspiring.
Michael was smart, he knew how to play the game. 👏
And the record companies, media, doctors and F.B.I. played him til his death
And when he died he was 300 Million in Debt! Yes! Very Smart!
I just want him back😢😪💔❤❤
i remember being at the front in the crowd at the history tour he looked at me and made the peace sign time stood still when he did that
That's nothing. I got backstage pass at the Victory Tour and saw he upfront while he was on stage. And saw him and his brothers walk right past us to walk to their hotel van. I was younger and in too much shock to yell out MICHAEL!
You did it! You are a great investigator. 🥳
Love you Michael Jackson I miss you.
I mean if you go by Frank Cascio's book, he was being drained left and right by financial advisors & also neverland staff - over 1000 mobile plan contracts going on his bill… He didn't have the time, energy nor will to handle his finances like he used to before the 90s, add to that his drug addiction - he was easy prey for everyone around him.
Probably true unfortunately
Literally, as soon as I heard the details of that SONY contract I got a bad feeling. Add on the fact that they said they were "Married to him now." That statement alone has alot of evil and deception in it. It's like they put chains on him with that contract on purpose. So many snakes in the grass.
My skin crawled; with just that statement alone. They probably even dictated what child or children to father?
Michael hated Sony. They treated him like a dog on a leash. 😡
@@MrMJmusicLover I will be communicating with a different music company: I'm sad for those who are their dogs on a leash. My question is: What companies are safe to be part of? Any suggestions will be welcoming!
@@user-hi3bn8pe5l I'm not educated well enough to to give you an in depth answer to that. Just gave you my opinion on the subject.
Thank you "the detail." for keeping my legacy alive.
-Michael Jackson
This was so good. I love the fact you showed the blueprint. I love your channel and thank you.
You are so welcome!
Super talented family
Man , i starting to feel old...
Michael Jackson used his money to discover and grow unlike today's artists main goal is to become rich asf and live like kings. Once they get some millions their goal change
I've never thought about Michael's money I miss that man 😢😢
What money? when he died he was 300 Million in Debt!
@@leemontoya8028 mj way more than 3hm
Motown dropped the ball letting the Jackson’s go.
Period. They dropped the ball first when they didn't let them write their own songs and when they didn't upgrade their paycheck
Naw, Motown was holding him back. MJ needed to focus on the future of music production, incorporating more influences than just R&B and soul into his sound.
Can't wait for part 2
AMAZING GOD GIFTED MICHAEL WORLD MOST FAMOUS PERSONALITY
Love and miss you, king 👑, always ❤.
He left out Captain EO from Disney in 1986. Hahahaha!
Michael's Earnings were only a PIECE of the story. The other thing to talk about is his INVESTMENTS.
Michael spent big because he gained big. He had so many income streams you'll never know it.
What other star has the ability to do a world tour ONLY for charity?!
The Dangerous Tour was a glorified telethon like Jerry Lewis with the Muscular Dystrophy Association.
The coldest most awesome telethon there ever could be! It was all to help others because Mike already had his money.
A lot has to be investigated about that contract Michael signed with Sony at the start of the 1990s.
It sounds more & more as time goes on like that was a trap.
Was Sony part of the conspiracy to damage Michael's income train in order to get leverage on him & his assets?
If Michael completed the Dangerous Tour at the end of 1993, he would move into a higher echelon as world healer.
All of his planned multimedia projects were not just for his artistic & professional benefit but it seems like he was creating a media platform to literally change the world. If Michael completed the Dangerous Tour, this would be inevitable.
Sony's PlayStation came out at the end of 1994 & I know as a Nintendo fan that videogames were part of Sony's expansionist mentality towards different types of media content. But suddenly Michael's not there because of the 1993 scandal.
Lawyers ate up a good deal of Michael's funds fighting off that witch hunt among other usual nuisance lawsuits.
He puts out HIStory & it's a hit once again despite radio shading Michael at this time.
But he no longer has the Pepsi endorsement & this black cloud of suspicion is over him scaring away potential fans-to-be.
The HIStory era is Michael repairing the damage from the allegations & it's also the last time he was a single man.
Fatherhood changed his priorities & years-long world tours were OUT.
NO WONDER Sony sabotaged Invincible from 2001. To keep him buried into their contracts & sabotage his earning power.
They wanted his catalogue in full. A single man had equal standing as a conglomerate corporation & that could not stand.
When he wouldn't sell, revive the witch hunt & that's why we got the 2003 to 2005 period.
Now he's spending all of this time paying back lawyers & other entities with his liquidity leaving him cash poor, asset rich.
The music industry is trying to replace him with a younger generation & he no longer tours because of his children.
ONE LAST big set of concerts should set things right as Mike tries to move to that next echelon.
And then they kill him & years down the road, they snap up his half of the catalogue.
Michael's name is now richer than ever but Michael the man is no longer here & he couldn't fulfill his total vision.
I just wanna know who exactly was a part of the conspiracy to bring down Michael. Name by name. Who?
💯👏👏👏
He is alive, you can research that. I don't know though if one reason why he escaped was that catalogue thing.
@japo137 totally false. Let that man rest FFS
@@Snyper1405 :D You should do a bit research, then you will find out.
@@japo137dove si può fare ricerca per favore?
Michael forever ❤️
Just BEAT IT........🕊️🎶👑

Yeah but Diana Ross wasn't the one who discovered the Jackson 5 originally it was Gladys Knight Gladys is the one who hooked the Jacksons up with Berry Gordy not Diana Ross
MJ maybe the most famous and idolized human to ever live
Wrong! Elvis was! And never played out of the States!
@@leemontoya8028you're pretty delusional. MJ was far more famous and idolized than Elvis ever was

I don’t think people appreciate this mans business sense thank you for hi lighting this
The best moment of my weeks has come! Thank you for the video ❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@thedetail. I certainly did☺️
I still cannot believe that his estate sold his stake on ATV to Sony. MJ would have never done that if he were alive. NEVER EVER.
That was - in my estimation - a bad financial move. Big media conglomerates are now buying other people's music rights... Thank God his estate did not sell MJJ Records to them. I believe that it is still entirely owned by the estate.
Damn, the detail really said class is in session. TBH, those numbers are too big to fully grasp. Anyway, shot for every time the narrator says "millions today" or "inflation".
Lol just wanted to give it context
Michael it’s the man ❤
Close! Elvis was the Man!!
@@leemontoya8028oh so you're an Elvis fan😂😂 ironic you're talking about Mike dying broke but Elvis wasn't worth shit before he died and his wife was needed to build his name back which even got squandered by his empty headed daughter 😂😂😂
@@leemontoya8028welvis ain't even shit to us the younger gen Mike has earned what welvis couldn't even earn in 209 years or how long has it been since that heffa died on his throne🚽🧻
Excellent break down however Michael Jackson did have a few solo albums while at Motown and his lawyer Tom Messeru said Michael Jackson was a billionaire by the age of 29. Another that wasn't mentioned was how his animals at Neverland Ranch were assets and he owned other properties around the world.
And he deserves every penny off it ❤

Bro you consistent with the mj videos
Always
Great content. Awaiting Part 2.
It’s out now!
This guy was a multi 10000x billionaire in the 50years he lived. Legendary icon michael
he is too POWERFUL as an artist. no wonder many want him dead. the moment he owned 50% of SONY ATV, he became a prime target. Upper hands in the industry would not like to see an artist to amass such power. they want to keep the culture where they have artists locked under their palms n became record company slave.
He is not only the best singer, dancer, entertainer on the World but he is very smart person and has so successful business with a lots of activities ✌️❤️ So, he is absolutely great person! God bless him! Who can do, do everything.
Thank you detail i appreciate your efforts 👌
My pleasure
This was probably a feel good news reports about mj to many of us.
AWESOME 😎😎🎉❤
No one will ever surpass michael jackson.
Elvis did! And never left the States!
@@leemontoya8028no he didn't. Dream on
You are my inspiration
I would have guessed that he made majority of his money due the Thriller era and then buying music Catalogs..
I love your vids, you are the best. Greetings from Dominican Republic.
Glad you like them!
Thriller still til this day the best record of all times for halloween parties...❤
Il piu grande artista di tutti tempi....così ricco e cosi semplice era...lui voleva solo vuvere tranquillo e nella normalità..a lui i soldi non lo interessavano per niente...era il re del pop ....ti amerò per sempre Michael...eri il più grandi di tutti...resta jn pace Michel
Another thing that wasnt mentioned he owned MJJ Music which had the likes of 3T and Tatyana Ali as well as R&B group Brownstone. Also as far as Thriller and most of his albums after that he has writing credits, co-producer credits which adds up when considering albums sold in a short amount of time
I love the thum nail ❤️
I refuse to believe he died broke aint no way
he was in debt
He can't die broke with that catalog
@@limerobloxgaming8567 that’s mind blowing to me im in disbelief bro been workin since he was a baby dam near imo the biggest musician to ever live and he was in debt? that’s crazy

@@limerobloxgaming8567 so you’re telling me the trials took up every dollar he earned? no way
The catalogs he bought, apparently had a combined worth about $51 billion dollars.

he definitely deserved much more than he had. We will love you, Michael, forever!!!
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 WOW!
It's crazy how since his death, he has still made $2billion...with a B! He has been named forbes highest earning deceased celebrity for 11 years out of the 14 and top 3 in all 14 according to forbes
1 word “Thriller”
I Love you so much Michael Jackson ❤💚❤🙏❤😢❤🙏❤💜
🙏🏽POP GOD❤️🤴🏿
Maybe what made his fortune go downhill were: the court cases, the Neverland ranch and allowing children to stay there for free, giving away millions to charities...
He bought neverland in March of 1988. but he was never home, not until January of 1989 he finally went to his new home that he recently bought.
Sure. MJ went to Neverland after he wrapped up the Bad World Tour in January of 1989.
He lived there for 16 years until he said in interview back in 2003 that he will never go back that didn't happen until two years later in 2005 the year michael left his own place. I am very sad about that and I wish michael promised himself to never ever go on tour again
Then never went back to it!
Forever loved MJ❤❤
How? Just....How???? I make 20 per hour. How did he have the ENERGY?
Sycamore valley ranch was probably Michael's biggest expense. He spent a lot to keep up his property even today.
Bro was rich af 💀
when he died he was 300 Million in Debt!
