How rich is George Lucus?

what next ?

So how rich is he ?? will he ever stop ? 馃槙

Rich.

Very Rich.

He's a billionare

Richer than anyone here.

I read recently that he's worth 4 billion. That's a lot of sweets.

Quite.

Yoda 馃槚hifty:

Is he rich too?

The more he changes the movies the more richer he gets

Getting rich off of a lot of my hard-earned money.

isnt that the way it always works?

But thats not to say that Mr Lucas didnt put alot of hard work in himself. 30 odd years of his life were dedicated to making SW - without him we wouldnt have any of the movies and chances are we wouldnt be here having this conversation.

Ups - see below

Star Wars is much more than a movie. It's a global phenomenon, with legions of devoted fans. Since the release of the original film in 1977, Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, Princess Leia and the rest of the gang have become a familiar part of our culture, their legendary story as familiar as Robin Hood's.

Star Wars is also a gold mine. Director George Lucas parlayed the movie's success into an empire, founding landmark companies Lucasfilm and Industrial Light & Magic. The six films, books, videogames, action figures and television shows have pulled in well over $20 billion and counting. Lucas himself can boast a net worth of more than $3.5 billion.

In May, Lucas released Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith, the last film in the franchise. On Nov. 1, Revenge of the Sith will be released on DVD, so we decided to pull together the best of Forbes' Star Wars coverage to celebrate the occasion. May the force be with you.

That says it all..
