He died in 2014, with a net worth of several hundred million dollars.
Never married, no kids.
Made his money in publishing, including The Week and Maxim.
Also became England's single best-selling poet ever. Wrote five books of poetry.
Spent over $100 million on drugs and women, by his own calculation.
Most of his estate, when he died, went into a foundation which ... wait for it ... is planting a forest. The Forest of Dennis is currently over 3000 acres, and growing. He didn't give to a bunch of charities, or establish an ego-trip foundation. He planted a fucking FOREST.
He was the first person to say the word "cunt" on British television.
Bottom line: he lived his life his way, all the way. An absolute fucking legend, and a total badass.
