I hope that his mother, Katherine, is in good health and has a few good years left (I think she's 79). You can bet her estranged husband will be back in good graces with his wife. I hope that if she passes before he does, Joe doesn't end up with Katherine's inheritance. If his son left him with nothing, there's good reason why. Katherine really needs to think about where her share will go when she passes. Should it go to Michael's siblings or children?

Michael is worth quite a bit, even after all the debts are paid. I know his smartest business move (whether it actually was his idea, who knows) was acquiring ATV Music Publishing Co., who among many artists included most of the Beatle songs. Jackson purchased it for 47.5 million, and today the worth may be as high as 1.5 billion They also include many other artists including the Jonas Brothers and Taylor Swift.

Interestingly, his Neverland estate almost went to auction last year. Somehow he was able to prevent it from going to auction. I know that the property is much more valuable now, so it's a good thing he found some cash flow. Also, just a couple of months ago some of personal belongings were to be auctioned off. For some reason, he called off the auction. Again, those personal items, like his notorious glove, are worth much more now than a couple of months ago.

Someone mentioned that his dermatologist was the sperm donor. That theory could be true since it's obvious that the children are white; no way are biologically his children. I guess we will never know why he did not want to be the biological father of any of his children.

So many mysteries.
