I remember her talking about someone investing hers and Lindsey's money in real estate when they first began making it. I guess the guy retrieved it from the jeans they threw in the washing machine with $100 bills in them. This was early on, so she may have learned something in the last couple of decades, but back then it was clear she didn't know what she owned. She just knew that the property someone else bought for her was making her money grow.

I'll bet she only paid for 1/2 of it? People are always turning you on to a line!

Default A weekend in the life of Stevie Nicks

1. sleep in till 10
2. Get up, take a quick shower, and slip a Stevie Nicks Wig from the Wig store over her rats nest. You know, the wig she has been wearing since at least 1999.
3. Put on something black.
4. Head out with Lori, Sharon and Karen to the country club for brunch.
5. Have mimosas with the girls and have an extra helping of sausage (because thats about all the sausage the old girl gets these days)
6. Hits up the Shoe Boutique in Hollywood and buys something flowy, something black, and something that starts with a "B" and ends in "oots"
7. Stops at Bed Bath and Beyond and changes up her bed linens for something more Gothic looking.... only in Pink.
8. Meets Tom Petty for a late lunch at the Sushi place and asks him to help her with her new Solo project. He rejects her and that gives her inspiration to write something in her journal later.
9. starts to feel pooped out, so stops at Starbucks and gets a mochachocolatakitchykitchylalafrapachino.
10. Feels better, so has the energy to stop by the beauty salon on the corner and asks for her spit ends to be trimmed.
11. Goes to the Body Shop and gets some new facial lotion
12. Meets up with Mick for dinner and tells him shes not ready to record another FM album, but agress to give lindsey a CD of some Demos from the 70's.
13. Goes home and changes into something black.
14. Sits down at her typewritter and Thinks about how to go about updating her Twitter account, but gives up.
15. Takes off her Stevie Nicks wig and changes into her grandma Pjs and bunny slippers and stays up to watch Saturday NIght Live.

I don't think that is right. Courtney Love is worth 70 million according to them. She's only had two platinum albums with Hole.

Guys guys guys!!! You have this all wrong! This is what Stevie does at NIGHT. She sleeps all day, you've heard of her saying that 2pm was an obnoxious time of the day to be awake.

See, I always thought that too until I found out she was a rock and roll hippie and only wanted to take a hit of that joint!!!!

That's what I'd guess, too... $20-40 million. Definitely not over $50 mil. I've read lots of lists and stories about how much rock stars are worth, etc and that's about where I think Stevie would fall into that hierarchy. Like you said, she's just got so much overhead, and has blown through so much over the years.

How did this turn into a discussion of how much our gal is worth? It's not about the money people, it's about the music! ( and lord knows she aint goin broke anytime soon).
