Cash Poor, Asset Rich

Michael Jackson died cash poor, but asset rich.

Two years since his death there has been a dramatic turn around in his finances.

Court documents show that his estate has generated more than $310M, which has enabled executors to distribute a preliminary payment of $30M to Jackson's mother and children, and to unnamed charities.

Additionally, the estate has been able to pay off numerous approved creditors' claims as well as Jackson's income taxes.
