GEORGE Michael made £55,000 per day from beyond the grave last year thanks to bumper record sales and a Netflix deal.
His company reported a £20million pre-tax profit on a £23.8million turnover.
The figures, for the 12 months ending in March 2023, are for his company Nobby’s Hobbies Holdings and take in earnings from several projects.
It made £20.6million in publishing income, £2.5million in record royalties and an additional £600,000.
George, who had a number one hit with The Edge of Heaven with Wham! in 1986, died in 2016 aged 53.
He was the subject of the hit Netflix documentary Wham! last year and the film Freedom! in 2022.
In September of that year, he also reached No 2 in the charts with a remastered and expanded version of his 1996 album Older.
And last year, George spent four more weeks at No 1 when Wham!’s Last Christmas became the festive chart-topper — 39 years after it was first released.
The sum dwarves the amount earned by his Eighties rival Boy George, who made less than half that and is fighting debts.
Speaking in 2017, Boy George, 62, said: “We had our squabbles, he was my rival, he was called George, he made soul music so everything he did it was like we were kind of battling all the time.”
George left a £98million fortune when he died, mostly to his sisters.
