10 Famous musicians that went broke (With Pictures)

10. Marvin Gaye

Tragedy seemed to follow Marvin Gaye regardless of the successes that he would come upon during his career. The man responsible for some of the most beautiful and even bone-chilling music of his time was forced to file for bankruptcy after he was left hurting from a divorce settlement. Gaye fell into depression and addiction later on in his life, and he was shot to death inside of his parents’ home by his father. Haunted by personal demons despite all of the fame and money that he had made during his career, Gaye was thrust into peace in one of the saddest ways imaginable.
