Harold Camping’s net worth, biography, fact, career, awards and life story

Harold Camping Net Worth: Harold Camping was an American Christian radio broadcaster, author, and evangelist who had a net worth of $75 million dollars. Harold Camping was born on July 19, 1921 in Boulder, Colorado. He is perhaps best known among non-evangelical Christians as the man who predicted that Jesus Christ would return to Earth on May 21, 2011, whereupon the saved would be taken up to heaven in the rapture, and that there would follow five months of fire, brimstone, and plagues on Earth, with millions of people dying each day, culminating on October 21, 2011, with the final destruction of the world. He had previously predicted that Judgment Day would occur on or about September 6, 1994. Beginning in 1958, he served as president of Family Radio, a California-based radio station group that broadcasts to more than 150 markets in the United States. In October 2011, he retired from active broadcasting following a stroke, but still maintained a role at Family Radio until his death. His failed predictions of the end of the world temporarily gained him a global following and millions of dollars of donations. Camping died on December 15, 2013, as a result of complications from a fall at his home two weeks earlier.

Irving Azoff’s net worth, biography, fact, career, awards and life story

Irving Azoff Net Worth: Irving Azoff is an American music business personal manager who has a net worth of $300 million. Irving Azoff was born December 12, 1947. His music industry credits include representing such music megastars as Christina Aguilera, Joe Walsh, Van Halen, Thirty Seconds to Mars, Steely Dan, Chelsea Handler and Lindsey Buckingham of Fleetwood Mac. Nicknamed the “poison dwarf,” a commentary on both his size and demeanor, former artist manager and label head Irving Azoff rose to the top of the music industry in the ’80s, becoming head of MCA records. A one-time protege of David Geffen, Azoff began his career by setting up Front Line Management in the mid-’70s. Azoff developed a reputation for being a tyrant when dealing with record companies and Front Line eventually became the most powerful management firm in rock history, counting Boz Skaggs, Stevie Nicks, Heart, Jackson Browne and the Eagles (bequeathed to Azoff by Geffen) among its clients. In 1983, Azoff followed Geffen’s lead by becoming head of a major label—the floundering MCA label. Within a year the crafty executive turned the label from near bankruptcy into a moneymaker through deals such as the acquisition of the distribution rights for Motown and the signing of multi-platinum teen star Tiffany. Azoff resigned from MCA in 1989 to form his own label, Giant, which had early success with Color Me Bad and the New Jack City soundtrack. In 1994 Azoff orchestrated the wildly successful Eagles reunion album and subsequent tour, proving he still had the instincts to keep him on top. Barney Hoskyns, in his book Hotel California about the late ’60s and ’70s Southern California rock scene, wrote that singer-songwriter Randy Newman’s song “Short People” was directed at Azoff, whose height is 5′ 3″; that Azoff had aggressively pursued Newman for Azoff’s Front Line management company and that Azoff was known in the music industry as the “Poison Dwarf”.
