Unfair Business
Not everything is good and fair in show business. Sadly, Jimmy Osmond knows this all too well! At the youngest number one performer in the United Kingdom, one would think Jimmy made off pretty well. Actually, the 9 year old did not see a penny from his record’s million copies sold. Jimmy has said that it’s not a very fair business, but luckily things changed for him later on.
He said, “We sold 100 million records, and the money we made on record sales is peanuts.” However, he’s done fairly well for himself since then, which we’re getting to…
Making Their Fortune
Actually, he did more than just well for himself. Jimmy made an impressive 80 million dollars! Where did all this come from, if not from those record sales?
Turns out, he amassed this fortune from live shows, movies, TV shows and other ventures. Through the Osmond fortune, the family gained more freedom to take their talents into new forms and lead very comfortable lives with their families.
