Vincent Lagaf’, who is making a triumphant return to the small screen with the new version of his cult game “Le Bigdil”, spoke about his fortune and what allowed him to quickly pay off his house…
Vincent Lagaf’ is still so frank! Back with a bang on television with a new version of Bigdil on RMC Story since January 2, the presenter, now 65 years old, intends to continue to make people talk about him. And he’s not afraid to make revelations.
Vincent Lagaf’ surprised by the crazy success of “Bo le Lavabo”
Guest in Guillaume Pley’s media, Legenda few days ago, the one who is also a recurring character in Fort Boyard once again showed himself without tongue in cheek. Defeats, problems, hard blows in life… Vincent Lagaf’ did not avoid any subject. Not even the astronomical sums he earned during the height of his career.
Asked about the totally unpredictable success of his first title, Bo the Sinkhe didn’t really know how to explain it. “We sold tons of them (…) I sold close to a million… And that year, there was a law that was passed and which said that if you opened a company by changing activity , you are exempt from taxes… That paid for my entry fee”he revealed.
Vincent Lagaf’ hit the jackpot: “I sheltered my family”
Vincent Lagaf’ was the first to be surprised by the money earned thanks to this title. “I receive a registered letter, I was still living with my grandmother at the time (…) I look at the thing, I open, SACEM. And I don’t understand you see. I say ‘no but what is it That’s not possible, so I’m calling SACEM.”he then explained to Guillaume Pley.
And to add: “Because at the bottom there is ‘800,000 francs’. I don’t know what 800,000 francs is, for me 800,000 francs is the lottery. The guy told me ‘no no he There’s no mistake, it’s a fifth of what you’re going to get.'”. Faced with his speechless interlocutor, he proudly added that he had received 4 million francs just from this title: “I sheltered my family, I sheltered myself”.
Vincent Lagaf’ did well to take advantage of it. And for good reason, the one who is back on the air every Friday evening in prime time on RMC Story had to lower his requirements for this new adventure. “I divided my salary by five. I didn’t even go to work for the money. I was worked because I needed to know what I was still capable of doing“, he confided on RTL last December 21.
