Clapton has also sold off part of his extensive guitar collection to raise money for the rehab clinic he founded in 1998 to help treat drug and alcohol addiction.
Even before the sale, the Sunday Times Rich List estimated the Cream guitarist' s wealth at some £140m, making him the 17th-richest British musician.The Times Music Millionaires list dated April 2012 pegs his income at just £130m. I'm not sure why there is a discrepancy and it's probably petty to worry about a measly £10m.

I don't blame him, I'd unload that holiday shopping bag looking thing, too.
ReplyDeleteIf part of his wealth is in fine art, that's a subjective figure. Depends on what it would fetch at auction in any given year.
