MJ, Debts? for what...
i doubt he had much debt...

I don't follow celebrities but I do keep up with the news and sometimes read things about people like MJ. And in the last couple days, I have read about $400-500M of debts.

Don't ask me how that happens when you make the kind of money he made but it happens. I remember reading how, once upon a time, The Donald was close to a billion in debt. Of course a developer of his caliber probably runs up his debt load very quickly

I wasn't a huge fan of his later work, but his music from the late 80's and earlier will always stick with me.

I can't remember a time in my childhood when I wasn't listening to him on the radio, or watching a video on MTV....

Same thing happened to MC Hammer. Rich beyond anyone's dreams, then lost it all.


EDIT
I actually miss him now. I'm sad that he's gone. He was a great American Icon.

Josh...that happened to me also... His death didn't phase me until this morning when I woke up and the sadness set in. The memories as a kid made the tears flow. Oh well...
