I'm thinking that many of his debt's may be cancelled because of his death but his royalties will keep pouring in. No doubt someone will make loads of cash from this.

I read something today about him having 200 unpublished songs that he left his children so that they would be set for life. Apparently he knew what he was doing all along. I wonder exactly how much money he burned through in his lifetime.
Our ebay store has sold several MJ items and we jacked the prices up about 3-5x the original prices that we were originally selling them for. Made about $600 profit so far. It's pretty crazy how fast it hit ebay. I got on and bought a bunch of shit for the low before some sellers could react. I really liked MJ and did shed a tear so I feel a bit sleazy about this. There has never been a single individual in the world that had the fame he achieved at his prime. I was really dissapointed to read that he wouldn't even of been able to perform in the shape he was in. I go to a lot of concerts and travel around the country to catch certain acts (not dave or phish or any of that shit =D) I was hoping to at least catch one of his performances before this happened.
