Default Which member has the highest net worth?

This article published in july 2023 Lindsey Buckingham Tops The List With $150 Million (250 before the divorce or so I understand. Christine and Stevie are mentioned with close but smaller numbers ($105M and $120M respectively). I don't know how reliable is that info. Christine and Stevie got far more singles, I'm not sure but at first sight it should mean far more profit?

Though Lindsey partially produced some albums. I don't know if that mean he got more money from album sales.

Or it just mean he was more organized with his investments and savings.

Lindsey likely bought weed, but wasn’t much of a cocaine user (probably just took part in the band purchase). On a podcast, it was noted that he never bought anyone gifts. Although he took his Out of the Cradle band to Hawaii after that tour. His tours the last 15 years probably broke even at best. His albums have not been huge sellers, as he has probably been releasing new music for his legacy. He and his (ex?) wife were into flipping houses in Southern California, and with the hot real estate market, likely increased his net worth.

Just from touring alone, Stevie would have to have the highest net worth. They all sold their music catalogues so at this point, they’re all sitting pretty. I mean, let’s say Stevie sold hers for $100 million and Lindsey sold his for $90 million and Christine sold hers for $80 million…. I mean, wealthy is wealthy no matter who has the highest actual net worth. I would say all three had good returns on their investments, but just from touring alone, it’s hard to believe Stevie didn’t have a higher net worth.

Not when you look at the way she lives. Keeping all those loser "yes friends" on your payroll can't be cheap.
Celebrity Net Worth says that Lindsey is the richest, with 150M. Stevie is at 120M. Searching Christine kept taking me to links about her death, so I gave up on her.
So the apparent answer is Lindsey, and also that you're wrong.

Before Christine’s death and the parsing of her estate, a basic Google search often said:

Stevie 150 mil
Lindsey 125 mil
Christine 120 mil
John 85 mil

Mick’s with fluctuates but never exceeds 20 mil—and is often much less.

Mick has to be the worst business person ever. The band always bailed him out but it was never enough. More bad investments and the cycle repeats. He needs meet and greets with fans to stay afloat.

I am fascinated with the mid 90s with the band members. Mick was still touring and staying in seedy Best Western Hotels on the interstate. I get that because they were playing clubs back then.
Stevie was rich but sort of panicked. She saw her career over with Fleetwood Mac and her solo career flaming out. She was touring by bus. She was even afraid to cut a video for her first Street Angel video because she thought it was too much money to waste. Its the last time many of them thought about money. Post Dance changed everything.

Money may have played a part in that, but I bet Stevie also felt uncomfortable with the idea of filming a video because of her weight at the time. Supposedly she made a video for Unconditional Love that has never seen the light of day, and I wouldn’t be surprised if that was because she didn’t like how she looked in it.

Mick is blessed with an inverse Midas touch.
Everything he touches turns to…..

I’m just thankful that all their accountants were so willing to share this accurate and confidential information on the internet so we could discuss their wealth freely and openly
