Do you think he has 500k in the bank? He hasn't earned any money in decades

no, bands didn't tend to earn much back in the day. A number 1 single may have earned about 10k. Even now, a number 1 single earns next to nothing, it's the tours that make the money.

Glitter will have received next to nothing in royalties because no-one will buy his stuff

Oh I bet that there are some people out there buying Glitter's Music.

I've just looked on Amazon.

As recently as 2023, there was a review from someone that had bought the "Ultimate" Gary Glitter Album.

And tbf, the Music isn't the person.

that may be, but not in quantities to earn cash. I'm involved in the music business, i know how difficult it is for artists to earn money. A few artists do very well, but you will find that most big artists have sold off their music catalog, because the money just isn't there any more and the better solution is to hand it off to companies for a lump sum now and Gary Glitter is not in that category. He was the face of a band in the 70's that had a couple of hit singles. That's it

“ Even after handing over the amount of £1/2 million. Glitter will still be extraordinarily wealthy, with a fortune estimated to be approximately £6million... “

I normally feel bad for singers who might be financially struggling to make a profit.

But in Gary Glitter's case, I am glad about what you're telling me.

…he raped her when she was 12yrs old, purposefully avoided paying any compensation later and now he’s facing financial ruin…?…sometimes the world does level itself out somewhat…why are the Mirror giving him front page story fees, though…

I'm always wary of cash payouts after a crime. No amount of money will change what happened.
