Harry Nilsson Financial Success and Decline: At the peak of his success in the late 1960s, Harry signed a $5 million record contract which was the largest recording deal in history up to that point, worth around $36 million in today's dollars after adjusting for inflation. Tragically he lost much of his fortune through theft by a former manager who was eventually served two years in prison for stealing client money. At one point in the early 1990s, not long before his death, he thought he was worth around $8 million when in fact he was flat broke and in debt. After he died, his estate was forced to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
