UK - It has just been revealed that Fifty Shades of Grey also means “Fifty Shades of Rich,” as new figures show that the author of the steamy trilogy, E.L. James, earned a massive $55 million in just one year from her books.
It has just been revealed that Fifty Shades of Grey also means “Fifty Shades of Rich,” as new figures show that the author of the steamy trilogy, E.L. James, earned a massive $55 million in just one year from her books.
That translates to about $150,000 per day!
Just to put these figures into perspective, that’s four times more than the total earnings for the Harry Potter books of J.K. Rowling in the very same year.
The Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy, which is based around a sadomasochistic millionaire called Christian Grey, who falls in love with, and seduces a submissive younger woman, has already sold more than 100 million copies worldwide and is being made into a Hollywood film.
The much anticipated film adaptation of the books will star Jamie Dornan and is directed by Sam Taylor-Wood.
More to the point though, how much does E.L James (whose real name is Erika Leonard) stand to earn from it?
Considering that the latest accounts filed by James’ company, aptly named,
Fifty Shades Limited, show a pre-tax profit of $55 million in the year to September 2013, she paid herself only a modest salary of around $13,000 a month.
Even though she did take substantial dividends, and rightfully so, James, a former TV exec, was also able to pay an additional $850,000 into her pension.
James and her husband Niall live in a modest six-bedroom house in west London and maintain a normal life despite the wealth they have acquired.
