the guy is a millionaire
Possible, but I highly doubt it.
I'm probably overstating it, but I do know his net worth is around 8 million, and I've seen his house, car, and pool o_o
I don't think so. Don't believe everything you read on the Internet.
I only believed it after seeing a mansion-like house on a hill. I suppose it makes sense that I'm wrong, I live in the country therefore have no clue.
Nah, he is definitely a millionaire. He shares pictures of his house on twitter and that type of house in his location is approaching 1M alone. I doubt he is worth 8M though.
Well, yeah, "millionaire" implies that he actually has a
net worth (i.e., total assets minus total liabilities) in excess of $1M. And it is possible he does. I can't say. But a huge house alone doesn't tell the story. If the house is worth, say, $1.5M, but he has a $1M balance on his mortgage, the net value of his home is only $500k.
Does he have a million in net assets? I guess it wouldn't surprise me. I would guess a bit shy of that, but I obviously don't know. Does he have $8 million? Possible, but I
highly doubt it. Those "net worth" sites don't have all the facts when they project what somebody's "net worth" is. And when it comes to entertainers, especially musicians, the math gets
really fuzzy. For instance, they may value his share of future royalties from Images & Words at $1M. Does that mean he will see $1M in royalties from I&W? Maybe; maybe not. Does that mean he could liquidate that asset right now and actually have $1M? Absolutely not.
Bottom line is, we're all just speculating, but it's silly and probably very wrong to assume that just because he has a lot of stuff and toured with A7X that he has millions in net assets.
Anyway, sorry for that tangent. Now back to SoA: I liked the clip. It doesn't give away a lot. But it's pretty good. Consistent with the first song that was released. I can say that, as far as the music, I'm definitely interested. Can't say how much I will ultimately like or it whether it will have any lasting staying power. Time will tell. But it's enough that I am interested for sure.
