Random question but I’m just curious how much money they made during their time with Oasis? I don’t know how the songwriter vs band member salaries differ so I thought someone who does could help me estimate how much they made? For example do you think it was enough to never have to work again?

They, along with Owen Morris, added a raw edge to the band that was lost once they left. I think they also contributed a lot to the culture around the band which in turn changed the songwriting approach and approach to the albums Noel took once they left.

Now I don’t know about you, but if I had that kind of money, I could certainly never work again.

Doesn't Bonehead have his own studio? Less than rich people don't own those.
Can't remember where I read that mind.

Not a fucking chance. i wonder what guigs has been doing for the last 20 years to make a living. also, what has boneheads profession been since 1999? beside showing up at randong liam gigs, he was part of some obscure bands, where he probably invested more than he made from and occasionally, he was a dj. i would assume that they still make most of their money off oasis. even though not nearly as much as noel, but probably still enough to pay the bills and live a normal life.

I doubt either of them have a mortgage to pay and they probably get enough royalties to live off.

Noel, the soul songwriter had rougly 86m Liam, The main performer had about 56m
This would place bonehead and guigsy at about 6-10m, more than enough to live the rest of their days quietly.

Didn't Noel say he writes cheques to Bonehead and Guigsy every month? He talked about it in some interview, but I can't find it now.

Of course they will have made enough cash to be set for the rest of their days, Alan too.
I think if Guigs for example had been painting and decorating for the last 20 years, we’d have heard about it by now. Nope, he’ll have been sitting in a nice house, having nice holidays and smoking a copious amount of splifs.

Why do people think Guigs, Bonehead and Alan never have to work again? They didn’t write any material. All of them haven’t been in the band for the last 20 years. I’m sure all 3 got a nice chunk of change at the moment of departure but 17-20 years later???

He made that much monkey? Geez. He even quit the band for several weeks in 1995.

I’m sure all 3 got a nice chunk of change at the moment of departure but 17-20 years later??? As I said earlier, I’d guess guigs and bone prob made around £10 mil each. If you spent half and just put £5 mil in a legit, safe account that draws interest at 2.5%, they’ll be getting £125,000 per year and don’t have to touch the large sum. Add in that they’re receiving royalties from DM, MG, BHN and you’d think a low number of even £50,000 per year is easily attainable. That’s £175,000 per year income with essentially no overhead costs because they likely own their homes outright. Not a difficult concept to grasp.

It depends how much they made (make) with WTSMG. That's almost 20 millions records sold there.

Seems really really high to me. I’d figure after the record company takes their massive cut, then Noel gets his massive cut, then Liam gets his cut that would leave BAG with a small pool to draw from.

I love that my previous post autocorrected money into “monkey”. Brilliant. I just figured that Noel manipulated their contract with Creation in the same manner that Billy Corgan did for the Pumpkins. That since he wrote all the songs. Was the leader. Did quality control. He would structure all deals to benefit himself and Liam.

Information about ppls fortunes/net worth in the papers/sites is super unreliable. It’s not like anyone wants to make information about their money public, so these numbers are just guesses based on whatever. I don’t believe in stories abt their 10mil fortunes but I guess they made enough to retire early assuming they spend their money wisely.

I’d figure after the record company takes their massive cut, then Noel gets his massive cut, then Liam gets his cut that would leave BAG with a small pool to draw from. They made LOADS touring, and I don’t think it’s crazy to think the founding members of Oasis earned 15-20% of what Noel did (touring included) overall. Granted, I’m going off reports that Noel earned £50-60 during that period.

I mind reading that a house Alan owned was up for sale a few year back for something like £6million. I doubt he had a mortgage on it when he bought it so think that gives an indication of the sort of wealth here.
