  • The world mourned the loss of David Bowie when he died on January 10, 2016. He was a rock icon who not only shook up the industry with his unforgettable music, but he redefined an era with his fashion and style.
    Bowie was a multi-talented individual. Most remember him for his impressive musical catalog, but he was involved in many other endeavors as well. Not only did he explore other artistic pursuits, but he was an early proponent of the internet and a savvy businessperson. It makes sense that the man amassed a substantial amount of money. But where did it go when he was gone? Here’s who inherited David Bowie’s fortune after he died.

    My husband and I had the wonderful good fortune to meet and have breakfast with David Bowie at the sound studio we worked at in the early 90s. It was an early morning and Bowie came to the studio to see someone, but we were the only ones there. I was about to go get some breakfast and asked him if he was hungry, and he was, so I got the best breakfast ever from Luther's, next to the Whiskey on Hollywood Blvd...and we chowed, read the Sunday papers and he was a wonderful, courteous person, with the fantastic dry English humor and my "favorite" person of all the stars and musicians whom we met in those years. He just really had mega watt star power, without doing anything, he just radiated some kind of aura, it was really amazing. I met a lot
    of big stars back then, but he was the only one who, without doing or saying anything, just knocked you flat, he just had ten times the charisma and charm of anyone else, so naturally, it wasn't an act, he was just that way..
    It seems like just a couple of years ago, and impossible that he has been gone so long already. Most of the people we met up in the big leagues are gone, Prince, Michael Jackson, there was a moment when everyone seemed to be recording at once, and the LA studios were full of artists who did a lot of visiting from one to another, anything, it seemed, to avoid working on their own projects, the intense pressure for hit records really unnerved even the calmest artist, and drugs were everywhere, especially cocaine back then...prince was the guy who never, ever stopped working, he wore out assistants so fast, he just worked all the time, he couldn't stop ideas from bugging him, and he always dressed in stage clothes with high, high heeled boots, no matter what. I realized why when I saw him in person for the first time, he was tiny!!

      Wow! That's great, what a cool job you had! I love both Bowie and Prince, who I always thought had a lot of similar artistic traits (both were androgynous and musically experimental). I had the opportunity to attend a soundcheck before a Prince concert in '02. He passed us when he came up the aisle to join his band onstage and I couldn't stop staring at him. He was so tiny, even in his high heels! Lol

    I raised three girls as a single dad. My oldest called me that Sunday morning (I think it was Sunday) and exclaimed "Dad, David Bowie died!" It was hard to believe. I have every thing he ever did. Over 40 albums. I'm a fan since 71. Sure was bad news. All of us who loved him miss him and i would bet he would have had another album out by now. Black Star wouldn't have been the end.

    I was shocked to find we shared a royal ancestor but after a thorough investigation, Hannah Crabtree-Lyon was not some king’s bastard child. She became a widow of a Lyon before she married Edward Smyth during the American Revolution. She was a DAR. I think some someone was just embellishing BS to prop up Bowie. Maybe he was the descendant of a King’s bastard, but it wasn’t my ancestor. I have royal ancestors from Prussia, Ireland, Scotland, and none were bastards.
