Woohoo, someone who actually read the article!

Come on, seriously - a musical artist who is a billionaire? Not even the Eltons, Maccas or Jackos of this world have that personal wealth.

the caption directly below the picture states that he is the seventh billionaire from the left

"Spreading the wealth: Billionaires (l-r) Warren Buffet, Oprah Winfrey, Bill and Melinda Gates, Pete Peterson, Leon Black, Jon Bon Jovi, Marc Benioff, David Rubenstein, Steve Case, Laura Arrillaga-Andreessen and Marc Andreessen"

It's not all about the money he has though, it's about what his business and investments are worth. Which would mean the rights to his songs, movies, videos, merchandising and stuff like that.

That caption can say anything it wants, common sense makes it kinda obvious that he's not a billionaire, especially not after losing all that money with his arena football adventure. He'll need to sell a few more bottles of Bon Jovi wine for that.

Salaam Aleikum,

I think Jon is probably wealthier than any of us really know, but I also think that if he was a billionaire he'd own part of an NFL team by now. That's one of his goals.

His net worth is £750 million, he lives in the UK so he's not classed as a billionaire.
