Remember him? The guy that made the idol franchise? Well according to Forbes he is worth 150 million USD.

That is absolutely atrocious! It makes my ears bleed!

And I bet he is miserable. Money doesn't buy happiness.

That's it? For someone on a television show that doesn't surprise me/make me mad.

What makes me mad is the former CEO of Home Depot, Bob Nardelli, got somewhere around 210 million USD -- for getting fired!

You do know that the American Idol franchise is worth $2.5 billion now right? Plus, he helps make the show interesting.

Actually, no, I didn't, because I don't watch the show. :P

That makes a lot of sense. The idol franchise was popular in so many countries. It was probably the no. 1 show at some point.

I'm not THAT surprised, I mean seriously, American Idol is HUGE. Actually, I'm quite surprised it isn't more.

And to those who say that money doens't make you happy, I have money and I'm happy. Like seriously, I'm not super mega rich, but I am very well off. I truly believe that people who say that money doesn't make you happy, obviously haven't had that much money, so they really can't talk.

And like, I'm not ashamed of it, because my family worked their butts off to get to where they/we are. It just sort of ticks me off sometimes, I know that sounded conceited and somewhat rude, but people have just been all up in my case lately. Lol, and Starbucks isn't helping XD.
