am somewhat staggered that Paul and his ex-missus' future royalties are valued at 10 million quid - makes you wonder how much Joe and Mick's cut is worth!

That's about $13,00,000 US...wow! My guess is that Mick and Joe's cut would be quite a bit higher considering they were the main song writers.

I've been saying for ages that people underestimate how much they must still make off the back of movies, adverts, tv soundtracks etc. You cannot live in Notting Hill without being quite wealthy.
They fully deserve it imo, the joy they've brought to the world via their music. Insane though to think those 5 years set you up for life.

There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Paul's partner - Serena Rees - is pretty well off, too.

Yup. Definitely. They're some of the best guys in the history of rock, too.Heston wrote: ↑21 Mar 2019, 12:22pmI've been saying for ages that people underestimate how much they must still make off the back of movies, adverts, tv soundtracks etc. You cannot live in Notting Hill without being quite wealthy.

Happy for them too but only a little surprised by the figures given they were in one of the most famous rock bands of all time. Shane MacGowan has probably earned as much as simmo on the royalties from one song.
