Celebrity Net Worth confirms Jimmy Buffett wore many hats over the course of his life. Some of these hats included singer, songwriter, actor, author, and businessman. This collection of hats allowed him to amass a shocking net worth of $1 billion at the time of his passing.

Next to “Margaritaville,” his second most popular song was arguably “Cheeseburger in Paradise.” These two songs soared in popularity because of the message behind them. They inspired kicking back and escaping from “the daily grind” of life.

It was in 1977 when he really solidified his place in the music industry. During his career, he released over 30 different albums. It was extremely common for his singing gigs to be sold out. His fan base was so devoted they were affectionately nicknamed “Parrotheads.” Typically, fans who fell into the category of “Parrothead” would wear tropical-themed clothing to events involving Jimmy Buffett.

He Created An Empire

Now, Jimmy Buffett’s music didn’t just inspire an “island escapism” lifestyle. He doubled as a businessman and played a role in creating an entire empire based on this relaxed and tropical lifestyle. To date, there are casinos, resorts, hotels, eateries, frozen drinks, and lines of merchandise within this empire. During most years, Jimmy reportedly earned anywhere from $50 to $100 million dollars between his music career and his business ventures.
