How Many Singers Wished They Had a Conservatorship Like Hers.

In 2008 her estimated net worth was around $42 million. While that is a staggering amount for most of us, most experts agree that with even semi responsible financial management, she should have been easily over $250 million. Even more disturbing was that according to court papers she only had $4 million on hand, and at the rate she was going would have blown thru that in a couple of months.

Thanks to her fathers conservatorship, she was back over $85 million. However she's now back to around $60, since SHE decided to stop her Vegas residency.

Just can't help but wonder how many artist over the years who ended up dying penniless would have loved to have someone responsible control their money for them. Someone who would be able to say "No you do not need to buy a new car." or "You already have 3 houses, you don't need another." or "A Yacht is a terrible purchase." or "I'm not giving you more money until you get sober."
