Bob Dylan sold his catalog of songs for $300 Million
Is the number being reported: Here was one of my Facebook friends (we even share the same birthday -- he's older) comment and I thought that was very appropriate for this board as well:
"Those critical of Bob Dylan for "selling out": oh, come on. The man is 79 and has six children. The $300 million takes care of them without the added burden of managing those assets. He's been forced off the road where he makes most of his money. I get it."
The same thing comes to athletes selling their trophies, momentos or other parts of their career. The money goes to kids, and they don't have potential headaches of whom owns what.
Regards
Rich
