Jimmy Buffett Net Worth: Jimmy Buffett is an American singer-songwriter, author, actor and businessmen who has a net worth of $600 million. He is best known for the “island escapism” style of his music and the global business empire it has spawned. Early Life: James William Buffett was born in Pascagoula, Mississippi, on Christmas Day (December 25), 1946. He spent his childhood in the cities of Mobile and Fairhope, Alabama. He attended grade school at St. Ignatius School, where he played the trombone. He first enrolled at Auburn University for college, before continuing his education at Pearl River Community College at the University of Southern Mississippi, where he received a bachelor’s degree in history in 1969. Following graduation from college, he worked a Billboard magazine correspondent in Nashville. Music Career: Buffett’s musical career began in Nashville, Tennessee, during the 1960s. He recorded his first album in 1970, country-tinged folk-rock number “Down to Earth.” Buffett, who had been frequently found busking for tourists in New Orleans at the time, was soon taken by music singer Jerry Jeff Walker on a busking expedition to Key West in November 1971. This prompted Buffett to move to Key West and establish the easy-going beach-bum persona for which he is known. There, Buffett combined both folk and country music with coastal lyrical themes that produced a sound commonly known as the “gulf and western” sound. Thanks to his instant party hits, he gained a loyal following. Before 2003, songs played at every Buffett show were known as the “Big 8,” including the song “Margaritaville” that helped him break into the mainstream. Other songs part of the “Big 8” include “Come Monday,” “Fins,” “Volcano,” “A Pirate Looks at Forty,” “Cheeseburger in Paradise,” “Why Don’t We Get Drunk,” and “Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes.” With his 27 album releases and around 40 live tours to date, he has remained faithful to his well-established persona known as the easy-going beach-bum guy. He also enjoys a dedicated fan-base, nicknamed “Parrotheads.” Writing Career: Buffett is a successful writer, having written three number one bestsellers. His first book, “Tales from Margaritaville” (1989), is a collection of short stories. His second book is the novel “Where Is Joe Merchant?” (1992). These two books both spent over seven months on The New York Times Best Seller fiction list. His memoir “A Pirate Looks at Fifty” (1998) debuted at number one on The New York Times Best Seller nonfiction list. He has released several other novels, including “A Salty Piece of Land” (2004) and “Swine Not?” (2008). Additionally, Buffett co-wrote two children’s books with his eldest daughter Savannah Jane Buffet: “The Jolly Mon” and “Trouble Dolls.” Business Ventures and Other Pursuits: In 1997, Buffett collaborated with novelist Herman Wouk to create a musical based on Wouk’s novel “Don’t Stop the Carnival.” It ran for six weeks in Miami, and Buffett released an album of songs from the musical in 1998. A new musical “Escape to Margaritaville” opened in May 2017 at the La Jolla Playhouse in San Diego, running until July that year. It went on to perform limited runs in cities like New Orleans, Houston, and Chicago. The musical uses Buffett’s classic songs, some of which were rewritten in order to better fit into the story, and features a book by Greg Garcia and Mike O’Malley. The show eventually opened on Broadway in March 2018, directed by Christopher Ashley. It ran until that July, with a total of 29 previews and 124 regular performances. Buffett is involved in two restaurant chains named after two of his hit songs, “Cheeseburger in Paradise” and “Margaritaville.” Furthermore, he is the owner of the Margaritaville Cafe restaurant chain and co-developer of the Cheeseburger in Paradise restaurant concept with OSI Restaurant Partners (parent of Outback Steakhouse), which operates the chain under a licensing agreement with Buffett. Buffett has also licensed a series of products under the “Margaritaville” name, including Margaritaville Tequila, Margaritaville Footwear, and Margaritaville Foods, which produces products like chips, salsa, guacamole, shrimp and chicken. Under the Margaritaville Brewing label, Buffett partnered with the Anheuser-Busch brewing company in 2006 to launch LandShark Lager. He also opened the Margaritaville Casino at the Resorts Casino Hotel in Atlantic City, New Jersey, in May 2013. Other real estate ventures he has made include Latitude Margaritaville, a $1 billion retirement village in Daytona Beach, Florida. It is a joint venture between Minto Communities and Buffett’s Margaritaville Holdings. As of March 2018, 250 of the planned 400 lots had been sold, with home prices ranging between the low $200,000s to the mid-$300,000s. Additionally, Buffett launched Margaritaville Records in 1993, distributed through MCA Records. After his deal with MCA ended following the release of his album “Christmas Island” in 1996, Margaritaville Records partnered with Island Records for a two-record deal. He later partnered with RCA Records for distribution in 2005 and 2006. Between June 2017 and June 2018, Buffett earned $50 million from his musical and business ventures. He earned roughly the same amount between June 2018 and June 2019. Personal Life: Buffett married Margie Washichek in 1969, divorcing in 1971. With his second wife, Jane Slagsvol, he has two daughters and an adopted son. Buffett and Slagsvol separated in the early 1980s but reunited in 1991. They reside in Sag Harbor, New York, and West Palm Beach, Florida. Buffett also owns a home in Saint Barts in the Caribbean. Buffett started the charity Save the Manatee, the world’s leading manatee protection organization, in 1981 along with former Florida governor Bob Graham.

Tim Robbins Net Worth: Tim Robbins is an American actor, screenwriter, director, producer, activist and musician who has a net worth of $70 million dollars. He is probably most widely recognized for his roles in such films as “Bull Durham”, “The Shawshank Redemption”, “The Player”, and “Mystic River”, for which he won an Oscar. Early Life: Timothy Francis Robbins was born on October 16, 1958, in West Covina, California. He was raised in New York City with his three siblings. His mother, Mary Cecelia (née Bledsoe), was a musician, and his father, Gilbert Lee Robbins, was a singer and actor, as well as the manager of The Gaslight Café in Greenwich Village, New York. The reason why the family moved from California to New York was so his father could pursue a career with the folk music group The Highwaymen. Robbins first began performing in theatrical productions when he was twelve years old. At Stuyvesant High School, he joined the drama club. As a teenager, he spent his summers acting in the Theater for the New City’s Annual Summer Street Theater. After graduating from high school in 1976, he continued his education at SUNY Plattsburgh for two years before transferring to California to study at the UCLA Film School. He graduated from UCLA in 1981 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Drama. Following graduation, Robbins remained in Los Angeles and founded the experimental theater group, the Actors’ Gang, which included the actor John Cusack. Career: In 1982, Robbins landed one of his earliest television roles on the series “St. Elsewhere”, on which he plays the character of domestic terrorist Andrew Reinhardt. He followed this up with a guest-starring role on the television series “Moonlighting” (1985), in the episode “Gunfight at the So-So Corral”, as well as smaller parts in several films like “Fraternity Vacation” (1985) and “Top Gun” (1986). It wasn’t until 1988 that he had his breakthrough role as the pitcher Ebby Calvin “Nuke” LaLoosh in “Bull Durham”, a baseball film co-starring Susan Sarandon and Kevin Costner. For his next major film role, as a film executive in “The Player” (1992), directed by Robert Altman, Robbins received widespread praise and even won the Best Actor Award at the Cannes Film Festival. One of his most memorable and famous role, as banker Andy Dufresne, came in 1994 when he starred alongside Morgan Freeman in “The Shawshank Redemption” (1994). The film was based on a novella by Stephen King of the same name, and despite a disappointing initial performance at the box office, it had very positive reviews and was nominated for seven Academy Awards. He actually won an Academy Award for Best Support Actor (as well as a SAG Award) for his role in the film “Mystic River” (2003). Other films he has starred in include “The Hudsucker Proxy” (1994), “Nothing to Lose” (1997), “Arlington Road” (1999), “High Fidelity” (2000), “Antitrust” (2001), “The Secret Life of Words” (2005), “Catch a Fire” (2006), “The Lucky Ones” (2008), “City of Ember” (2008), and “Green Lantern” (2011). Outside of film, Robbins has also acted in various television projects, including episodes of shows like “Amazing Stories” (1986), “The Simpsons” (1999), “Jack & Bobby” (2005), “Portlandia” (2012), and “The Spoils Before Dying” (2015). He starred in the miniseries “The Spoils of Babylon” (2014), and was a member of the main cast in the first (and only) season of the series “The Brink” (2015), co-starring alongside Jack Black; the single season of  the HBO series “Here and Now” (2018), also starring Holly Hunter; and season 2 of “Castle Rock” (2019). In addition to his acting career, Robbins is also a director and screenwriter. In 1992, Robbins made his debut as a director (and screenwriter) with the mockumentary “Bob Roberts”. He not only directed and wrote the film, but starred in it as well. It is based on a character he once played on the comedy show “Saturday Night Live” back in 1986. Another film he has directed that earned him widespread praise was “Dead Man Walking” (1995), starring Susan Sarandon and Sean Penn. For the film, he was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Director. Another film he has directed is the musical “Cradle Will Rock” (1999), set in the era of the Great Depression. He was not only the director of “Cradle Will Rock”, but the film’s writer and producer as well. As a filmmaker, Robbins is known for the skillful way he treats viewers with new perspectives on political and social issues, through engaging, real-life characters and stories. He has also worked as a television director, directing two episodes of the series “Treme”—one in 2011 (“Everything I Do Gonh Be Funky”) and one in 2012 (“Promised Land”). Furthermore, Robbins served as the director of a theatrical production, an adaptation of George Orwell’s novel “1984” written by Michael Gene Sullivan.
