Despite a great career in music, Michael Jones assures him: he is far from rich. Unlike his friend and colleague Jean-Jacques Goldman, he must live with a modest retreat.
This Wednesday, September 23, it is a Michael Jones in shape and determined to say his truths that viewers were able to find in THE Luxury jetLuxe Jordan’s show. The host received the Franco-Gallen musician to speak with him health, career and … money. The opportunity for the artist to make a confidence on what he earns today.
Michael Jones receives a small retirement: he continues to work for “A BOOK HIS”
And the least we can say is that the great friend and ancient musical complicates by Jean-Jacques Goldman did not mince his words. Asked, as it is a habit in the program, on the state of his finances, the 73 -year -old artist was extremely honest. “I am retired and I touch a normal retirement, even less than a civil servant”said Michael Jones. And it is up to him to complete: “I think I have to earn 1,800 euros per month.” Before admitting continuing to work to “A living his living.”
“It doesn’t bother me, I love it”still launched the one who will celebrate his 60 years of career on the stage of the Olympia, on September 28. But then does Michael Jones earn much less money than his accomplice Jean-Jacques Goldman? “I have no idea, we never talk about money. It has no interest …” It is however the evidence itself since Goldman is a millionaire and owes in particular his fortune thanks to the royalties That he touches on his tubes but also those written for others, starting with Céline Dion.
Michael Jones weakened? “I’m going to get off … it becomes very difficult …”
Asked in the process of his state of health since he became septuagenarian, this father of three children -now as grandfather -said that he was going to “Raising your foot”. And for good reason, “It becomes very difficult logistically”. “Traveling to France today, it becomes difficult. And I want to give my musicians the opportunity to make other adventures. Besides, there are some who will go on other adventures and it’s very good”he said.
But as a good hard worker, Michael Jones says he is ready for new adventures, he who was a professor at the Star Academy On TF1 for four seasons before finally taking off after “A little disagreement with Pascal Nègre on an artist”. Head on the future then! What continue putting butter in the spinach.
