Based on the amount of happiness Buffett has brought to people, I'd say he deserves everything he has.

I had Jimmy buffet land at the same airport I did and got to tour his Jet and his Albatross. I then went to his concert that night near brown field. They use the Albatross to fly over the crowd to warm up the audience before the concert. I remember the air traffic controller telling Buffet to be on the lookout for a Cessna 182 at his 12 o’clock when he was coming out of Burbank and I was flying over LAX. That was me. He said he didn’t have me but had me on the fish finder. He said he would divert and went by my 3 o’clock position. One of my favorite aviation stories and I tell it whenever anyone will listen.

RIP Jimmy, you'll be missed, and thanks for all the memories.

Buffett is one of only seven authors to have a number one book on both the New York Times Fiction and Non-Fiction Best Sellers list.

Jimmy's music puts me in my happy place

R.I.P. Jimmy Buffett You will Be Missed 😢❤😢❤

I MET JIMMY BUFFETT IN A WAREHOUSE GIG. AT 2 AM, CHICAGO, BEFORE ANYBODY HEARD OF HIM

Love his entrepreneurial spirit and that he makes money doing what he loves - This is a man that figured it out!

R.I.P. Jimmy you were worth it all.

Jimmy is a national treasure! Period! Keep it going as long as you can!

RIP Jimmy! Thank You for the wonderful music. You will be missed!

RIP Jimmy 09/01/2023. Thank You for the many years of memories and entertainment !!!

Jimmy did everything right, one of the greatest lives lived by man ❤

Jimmy jam was the man. His music will play on during my sunset’s. The first thing that comes to mind when I think of Florida is Jimmy Buffett RIP

Dude accepts his doctorate in flip flops.

Jimmy Buffett is my favorite

Bubba was almost Michigander he loved the great lakes

Jimmy passed away peacefully on the night of September 1st 2023 surrounded by his family, friends, music and dogs. Aged 76 years.

Jimmy Buffet one of the few celebrity’s I’d love to meet especially at the bar in the keys

My Hero.

Nothing sweeter than his recording of STARS FELL ON ALABAMA

Sometimes I’d listen to his music in the dead of winter. Helped me think of warmer summer days 😎

I used to go to the Raven Gallery. Never saw Jimmy, there, nor anywhere, yet. The Raven is long gone. Sad day when it closed.

Jimmy lived the American dream! He embraced it, just like others like him. It is possible for anyone who wants it! The only reason you don’t obtain it, is YOU! Look in the mirror that is who is holding back! May God embrace Jimmy Buffet for all eternity!

Ahh sailing! Can't wait to do that again.

Love these Stories!!

Gidyupp lil pineapples 🍍... a Caribbean Cowboy 🤠 50 yrs Great Music FOR ALL us 🇺🇸

Fishing baseball mostly music my favorite stuff...go Jimmy

Saw JB for the first time in 1974 at the Main Point in Bryn Mawr, PA and several times there after. This was before all the Parrot Head craziness started. I saw him again in the early 1990s at the Mann Music Center in Philadelphia and the audience made so much noise and partying you couldn't hear the concert. That put me off going to JB concerts for a long time. Did see him a few years ago at CB Park in Philadelphia and the sound system was able to overcome the crowd noise from the PHs.

I had so much fun at All the shows throughout the years . Fins Up ! RIP Jimmy

His music always made me think of vacation - and what's better than that ? RIP ✌️ ☮️ 🍹 🌴 🌊 ⛵️

Good business man turned Margaritaville into an empire!

I absolutely "loved " this song!! RIP Jimmy.

I was at a club in Dallas named Mother Blues on a Monday night. I had no idea who was playing that night and didn’t much care but it turned out to be some guy named Jimmy Buffett and another guy with him, both playing acoustics. I grabbed a beer, got a seat and thought I’d check this out, drink a few beers and leave early. Didn’t have to look very hard for a seat as there were maybe 6-8 other people in the main room. I listened to a few songs and knew that this fella was gonna be somebody. He played Monday- Friday and I was there for every one of them. He semi packed the place on Friday night with maybe 20 people. I was right for maybe the first and last time in my life about this Jimmy Buffett guy becoming a somebody. I did see him again some time later- took our 10 year old son who slept through most of the show. Funny thing is when he asked the crowd if anyone saw him at Mother Blues back when, probably 1000 people yelled and scream. Jimmy and I both got a big chuckle from the response. RIP Mr Buffett- I bet you’re in Paris, looking for answers to questions that bothered him so. Mike

Jimmy has gone to get his cheeze-burger in Paradise Fri 1 Sept 2023...

RIP you are loved and so missed!

I grew up with Jimmy, as my Mom was a fan from 1975 on. The records were always on until 1982 or so when she remarried. I always kinda liked him, but my music tastes got stranger when I inherited cases of 78s of 1905-50. That's a Rambler Ametican, they brought back the smaller 1953 body as 1958 was a recession year. The American, as a smaller small car remained in production into the mid '60s.

You are missed😊

Jimmy RIP 🍹

RIP Jimmy. Bubbles Up!

RIP Jimmy you will be missed. When I think of Florida it will remind me of you!💖🌹🙏

Blew out my flip-flop..has to be on of the best lines, ever❤❤❤

Great show

Jimmy was worth $1 Billion at his death. He can do anything he wanted. And he did. Good for him.

RIP God Bless , may you continue singing in heaven 🎵❤ in Margarita Ville🌈

Well Jimmy, it's 5:00 somewhere. It's 4:14 here in Buffalo.

Like his pickup truck

RIP Jimmy

RIP Jimmy Buffett ❤

Jimmy puffett

New Orleans Jazz Fest cap!

Man…. There are a lot of cheesy people out there funding all of this based on the “we like to relax, and hang at the beach” theme. Go jimmy!

I was born on December 25th 1977 in Pensacola Florida

How did you choose the sound bites? Throw a dart?

Jimmy had a Grumman Albatross flying boat. The Ultimate Fishing Machine! What every fish nerd would love to have! Jimmy, if there is no fishing in heaven, wait for me. I will create a place!

Jimmy Buffett music for the next 76 hours. September 1, 2023.

We shared a Christmas Bday! Capricorns Rock

Who cares about his wealth. Did you enjoy his music, Y or N. Otherwise, it does not matter. This music is one that I grew up with. I will miss him.

He plays a hell of a character on H50, he is hilarious.

Cant take it with you.

Jimmy also owned a Cessna 208 Caravan Seaplane & I believe a Pilatus PC-12 aircraft.

This is a decent slug of info for a new fan or explorer. There was plenty that was missed but I’m sure you had to pick and choose due to the time window. The editing is a bit rough and the interview sound bites were butchered. The end bit with the planes and cars woefully omitted Buffett’s most famous plane, the Hemisphere Dancer, which is still displayed at Margaritaville Orlando.

He was also on Blue Bloods playing himself.

3:02 no way that’s Jimmy

Looks like Larry David.

I have his 1998 Carnival Tour Shirt, how much does it cost now?

THEN AGAIN WE MET IN KEY WEST FLA. AT HIS BUNGALOW IN THE HARBOR,NEXT TO A FAMOUS BAR. Ha what a co incidence.

Buffett and Beach Lovers! I hope you enjoy this new Jimmy Buffett Style song with some of the most beautiful beach scenes ever! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/g6ijecKW3JvKYJ8.html

You’re the WATOP dude.

I wonder if he ever paid back the mini-mart.

What’s the intro song in the background please!?

The picture of the first El Camino is a 1970... Just saying!

Seems he would have bought some Berkshire Hathaway back in the ‘60’s that would be worth a whole lot now!

3 mins of info spread over 10 mins due to pacing, speech phrasing and repeating material. I guess that's technically a genius approach to monetize a YT channel. But this vid was a mess. How does a video that discusses JBs film appearances not mention FM!?!?

This video literally sounds like those websites written by AI and/or foreigners who don't speak English.

1 minute of content, with 45 seconds of commercial. No thanks.

Ya know what's "funny"? Is that his real estate development in Hardeeville, SC, called "Latitude Margaritaville" goes un-mentioned. A nice place, (I guess, not having never been in there), but I drive past there as infrequently as possible since it's LITERALLY out in the "sticks", but it's on my job route. Not much in the vicinity except a highway called "278" No grocery stores, (or for that matter, NO stores within a 5-10 mile radius), but the retirement homes there run, (or so I've heard), around $3-400K. MAN !!! Grocery delivery and UBER guys must flourish there. 'Just saying...I loved the guy and his music, but perhaps a questionable call for buying the property in the middle of nowhere.

Jimmy needs a HAT!!! A straw island hat!!! Cum on, Jimmy!! You got the shorts and island shirt! Top it all with an island hat!!🤠

All this about Jimmy and in the last two sentences you mention he had a business jet and a "Boeing"..... Your research really did not find out who Jimmy really was. One big void is you missed his love of flying. The Boeing is a Steerman... a very cool radial engined pre World War 2 plane. What he liked even more was his Albatross sea plane . He was rated to fly several sea planes as well as float planes. Music was the first business. Flying was a love. No mention of his island hopping "airline". I don't think you know that much about Jimmy.

Where do these producers find the script writers? High School summer jobs?

Just proves that musicianship is not essential for success!

we know this

This is fascinating information, and I thank you, but you could really work on improving the production values of your videos. This is just sloppy and there's no need for it.

he flunked out of Auburn

Boarding school???

He sold coke to get his start.

Way out of date and inaccurate info.

He could afford the best medical care, still died relatively young. We don't take it with us.

ALL THAT MONEY AND A SWEET FACE CARBUNKLE

James W, is a mediocre singer, at best. That being said, I've been to the last 2 concerts he has done, here in Phoenix. Jimmy is one HELL of a story-teller! I can't think of someone that is alive, that can beat him at telling stories. (I DO know who Joe Merchant is, and his sister!) I would LOVE a ride on Desdemona's rocket ship. steve

Wow, how could you miss the breadth of his interest and activities in aviation…including his ratings, his many planes including a Stearman and three historic Grumman seaplanes? (Yes I know you said he owned a “Boeing” [which the Stearman is] but that could be nearly anything in the company’s long history.) Do better research.

What is it to gain the whole world yet lose your soul! At the end of the day no matter how rich & famous we all die.

The album 'Living and dying in three quarter time?!?' Really...? Do you really know so little about music as to not call it Living and Dying in Three-Four Time??

Total disrespect here. Wishing what you deserve fully comes your way.

WHY WHY won,t he buy a house in Key West? Palm Beach is for arrogant people.

He was a staunch liberal. He supported them and ran fundraisers for liberals, including one for Hillary Clinton in 2016.
