(Market Realist) Rocker and actor “Meat Loaf” passed away on January 20 from an undisclosed cause. The 74-year-old, who had acting roles in films and shows including The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Fight Club, and Wayne’s World, also penned and performed iconic rock music for decades.
Meat Loaf made plenty of money throughout his career thanks to selling platinum albums (platinum means at least 1 million units of an album sold). Despite declaring bankruptcy in 1983, his fortune bounced back. As of 2022, CelebrityNetWorth estimated his net worth at $40 million.
He is survived by his wife Deborah and daughters Pearl and Amanda. He married Deborah Gillespie in 2007. It’s likely that his remaining net worth will be divided among his widow and children. First wife Leslie, whom he divorced in 2001, is the mother of his two children.
