lizziebix Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 More likely it's because Billie gets the royalties for the lyrics. Their CDs always say "Music by Green Day, Lyrics by Billie Joe Armstrong". That too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteTim Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 He said years ago the royalties are divided equally, even song writing royalties Maybe he was saying that to look good for the fans...

No Rhyme Or Reason Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Maybe he was saying that to look good for the fans... (not that i know for sure) but it wouldnt shock me to find out they really dont... Or he may have been referring to the music writing credits being divided equally, separately from the lyrics.

I don't see why he would lie when he brought it up himself personally, he said he didn't want to be earning anymore than them. Think the difference in money would be a lot more other wise (mike supposedly has five million more than tre ...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even so this interests me, and im not sure why. maybe i like to know who my own salary is going to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteTim Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Saying lied is a strech... But some bands publicily will say this is band earns equal etc to look like a united front takes guns and roses axel preached all members shared the same ampunt but really axel had more points again not sayin Billie lied bout it but i wouldnt be suprised if he did takr the lyrics for himself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather. Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 That celeb net worth website explains why there is a difference, and divorces do have something to do with it (maybe Mike fared better than Tre with his ex-wives ) It also has to do with solo endeavors and branding and markets. The fact that Billie Joe owns a record label, for example, whatever Adeline is worth is factored into his personal wealth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farley drexel hatcher Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Plus child support is valued by what you earned the year you divorce so I'd say both tre and mike (tre especially, two kids, two divorces) have paid a substantial amount of that since they both separated from their kids mums when they very young. And if you divorce your ex is entitled to half of everything you earned while you were together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all know they have lots of money, but why should we care about it? Well i certainly am not haha and i don't see it as news that they have money (or a website claiming to know how much any of them have either ...i don't care how they estimate it...unless they have receipts then it is bullshit and if they do then it is called invasion of privacy). We really don't know about their personal lives or spending habits because they are "personal"...for all we know Billie may be a wise investor in stocks and shares (lmao) while Tre wastes his money on horses (so he can make horse porn for instagram of course haha). OR like i said that website is just a bunch of losers guesstimating wiildly and assuming that the lead singer/vocalist and lyric writer should have more money than the drummer (which is generalisation at it's finest) ...all i know is this discussion has gotten past the point of news and is (imo) way too personal and pointless.
