Which celebrity would you like to see in my next video?
That's why my favorite part of the book, The Beatles Anthology is when they talk about how their lives were changing because they are making money. Ringo talked about counting 37 dress shirts in his closet. John said he did'nt realize just how big his house is until he goes back to Liverpool to visit family. John said they put pop stars in what they call the stockbroker belt because your neighbors are stockbrokers and lawyers. Ringo lived just up the block. George said he bought the first house they showed him.Love the story about John and George racing their Ferrari's through London.
Youve just made that all up 😂
That's why my favorite part of the book The Beatles Anthology. Is when they start talking about how they're lives were changing, because they are making money. Ringo talked about counting 37 dress shirts he had. John talked about not realizing just how big his house is until he goes back to Liver pool to visit family. John talked about how pop stars houses are in what they call the stockbroker belt. Ringo's house was just up the street from John's. George said he bought the first house they showed him. I love the part in the book when George talked about him and John racing their Ferrari's through London. Paul said he chose to stay in London, instead of moving to the suburbs and living on golf course estates. Like the others.
Paul and I will celebrate our 18 June birthdays again soon! I send him a "Happy Mutual Birthdays" cards every year! I have always been a HUGE FAN! Great fun; energy; sentimental love; memories aplenty; wonderful talents! * Cav *

Everybodies favourite bit;money/wealth.
Dear Lord, what's with AI man?
It's awful. Voiceover included. I think AI has a long way to go before it's going to fool anybody.
Why is this world obsessed with how rich artists etc are
Great question. It’s true that the world often focuses on the wealth of artists and celebrities. I think it’s because people are fascinated by lifestyles that are very different from their own. It can be fun and inspiring to see what’s possible, but it’s also important to remember the talent and hard work that got them there. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts! 🎶✨
They shared a 1p record royalty between 5 Inc B Epstien. An American bought the merchandise royalties for $ 50,000 making more than the Beatles in sale
Thank you for sharing this information.
A voiceover would have been sufficient. The appearance of this guy (out of synch btw) is a distraction
Thank you for your help

There are always whiners on these threads.
Always with the whining with some of you people, good fvcking grief. Like nagging women. 🙄
I appreciate feedback from viewers as it helps me improve my content.
Tell me you don't know anything about the Beatles without saying you don't know anything about the Beatles.
I'm sorry to hear you feel that way. I’m always eager to learn more and improve. If you have any specific corrections or additional information, I'd love to hear it. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts!
$ at the time- how much in POUNDS STERLING?
Great question! The exact conversion would depend on the specific year and the exchange rate at that time. Do you have a particular year in mind? I can help look up the historical exchange rate for you!
I think in 1964 a British pound was worth five 1964 dollars- so I guess a 1964 pound was worth about 50 nowadays dollars.
In 1964, the exchange rate for the British pound to US dollar was around $2.80 per £1. This means that one 1964 pound was worth about $2.80 back then. Thanks for pointing that out! 😊
"Beatalee-mania" ?!
You have keen ears.
Not as much as EMI who ripped them off
You're right, the Beatles' relationship with EMI had its ups and downs. It's interesting to look back on how the industry worked back then. Thanks for sharing your perspective! Do you have a favorite Beatles album?
Does this matter? Money is all about we hear these days🤪🤢
I understand your perspective. While discussing their financial success is one aspect of their story, there's so much more to appreciate about The Beatles' music and legacy. What’s your favorite Beatles song or album? 🎶😊
AI bullshit! Just horrible! 😑
Yeah but I wouldn't see his hands dance
This guy has no idea what he's talking about
Sorry to hear you feel that way! I'm always looking to improve, so if you have any specific feedback or points you think I missed, I'd love to hear them. Thanks for watching!
How much did they make? A lot!! LOL!!
Way more than enough to live a good life.
