I know. That was where it ended on the site I was on. I am sure he did more after that. I was just using these an an example.
He still had a rather large income as of October 30, 2001, when he released Invincible, which went on to sell about 10 million copies worldwide, which is hige by any definition other than that of the relatively few "Thrillers" of the world. Interestingly, although he was allegedly cash poor (which I highly doubt) - his net worth was still $200+ million or more until the day he died and he stood to make tens of million off of those London dates and any tour that followed. His problem was he spent money like crazy. Invincible allegedly took $30 million to make
So, maybe that spending and the reduced mega sales lessened his ability to donate in the mid 00's.
