Even after his death, he was reportedly a high-earning celebrity. His estate, estimated to be worth $482 million but later found to be $111 million, has released “a number” since his death 12 years ago, The List reported. Both ‘The Immortal World Tour’ and ‘One’ have made millions. Sony bought Michael’s Sony/ATV shares for $750 million in 2016. In 2018, they paid $287.5 million for his EMI Music Publishing catalog. According to reports, the ‘Billie Jean’ singer’s children have enough money to sustain them. Each got $8 million a year after his death. When the children turn 33, they’ll each get half the estate, according to a report. The children will get equal shares of the estate when they turn 40.
