IMO He is actually quite invaluable and certainly worth his weight in gold
I doubt if it is posible to put a value on genius anyway

Yes but to us "He's worth more than money, He's 14 Karat gold" or to paraphrase the commercial
The enjoyment of a Lightfoot song is Priceless

Zowie. Good for Gordon! He was on a talk show - I forget which one, but I know it was in the early 80s and when asked about his success he referred to a quote and stated, "The harder I work, the luckier I get!" Yep.

Of course he lost some of that long ago, when he had the largest alimony payment in Canadian history, but I'm sure with all the touring he is doing now, he is back up there again.

The figure of 30 million is current.

That divorce settlement was in 1974, he still maintained a large portion of his wealth at that time and has continued to tour and sell albums and have royalties for the last 38 years.
