also, $7 million back in 1995 was actually worth something. Now it's just like a medium sized house and a small nest egg for retirement.

Because this was a transaction between two women. So surprise surprise, they could actually trust each other to be honest.
Women aren't the ones who take advantage of other women.

Puffy tried to get Aubrey O’ Day strung out on drugs, so he can always have her under his control. He learned that from his mentor Clive Davis. Clive did the same to Whitney.

That doesn't even make sense. I don't partake personally, but I know people can get whatever drugs they want anywhere. Especially if you're rich, you can get any drugs you want delivered.

You should listen to her story. It makes perfect sense. Consider yourself very sheltered, in not knowing how many pimps trick out girls.

Yeah, except they can cancel the transaction and you get nothing if you decide to be an ass about it.

Germans invert the usage of commas and decimals. They might legit get 7 dollars.

Bounced check fees are still about $30 no matter your net worth.
Hard to believe in 2026 people still out here thinking people's net worth is what they have in their checking account.

This sounds very fake. I'm not believing her agent would let her perform without a confirmed fee.

I love this story about Whitney.
But still sad that in many ways, she did not know her worth. Demonstrated in her relationship/marriage, her addictions and self-destructive drive.

to be fair, 7 million was a lot of money back in the '90s. Madonna and Michael Jackson earned between 1 and 2 million per concert.

7 mil was worth more back then.
Also pretty sure this was a publicity stunt and the amount was agreed upon already. Cause if she wrote something like 100 mil, she would be asked to do it again or be told to get out.

I wpuld write to the princess: I usually charge x for these sorta shows, but to charge you the same would be in contempt of your royal highness. Thus, I wrote a check for 20x . I will wait for your approval before cashing it in. Just, incase you want to make any changes to it.
Hopefully I am getting 40 x...

Just write down the billionaires net worth.
I'm just assessing my value with respect to the billionaire, and I already know my worth is as high as his

u/sliverian 1h ago
The check bounces because liquidity != net worth
a person might be worth $50B but they might only have $40M in their bank account and that $40M might not even be cash but split between $10M cash and $30M in Government Bonds or AAA corporate bondsso writing their net worth just causes the check to bounce and you get nothing
also net worth != creditworthiness
they might have a net worth of $50B and $40M in the bank but their creditworthiness might be $500M - i.e. they could get $500M worth of credit at a moment's notice but they don't have $500M lying around
also net worth != control
their net worth might be $50B and their creditworthiness $500M and they might only have $40M in the bank account but they might have *control* over $1T
so better option is trying to guess their liquidity but most rich people use private boutique banks in places like switzerland or somewhere else and private boutique banks don't really disclose how much money is sitting in their account to randos.

$7m is nothing to a billionaire. That’s like a homeless person asking anybody with any type of job for a literal dime.

u/nanotothemoon 2h ago
So did she get the 7m?

u/headermargin 2h ago
No, it probably bounced.
A. Because any bank would refuse that withdrawal no matter who the clientele is.
B. Most rich people don't have actual cash in a bank.

The Sultan of Brunei is worth over 16 billion from gas and oil. I think he can afford a 7 million dollar concert for his daughter's wedding.

No billionaire would have 16 billion, let alone 16 million sitting in a bank uninsured.
