    He had no kids and no wife. They'll get over it.

    Pretty confident I'm not getting a claim either way.

    I also don't have a will, so I just take extra care not to die.

    He's got a bunch of brothers and sisters who'll all want their share and will likely fight each other for it.

    There's also people coming out saying they're his secret love child. Bogus or not, they'll be using resources to make a claim that will need to be defended by the rest.

    It's the lawyers that have the most to gain from this.

    I reckon by the time they got Prince into the ambo there would have been heaps of people doing quick calculations in their head or the back of an envelope as to how much mula they're gonna get.
