Gary Barlow's Wealthy Existence

Gary Barlow will be rich until he dies.

The Take That singer - who penned most of the band's hit records, including 'Back For Good' and 'Never Forget' - has never embarked on a frugal lifestyle, despite his 10-year break from the band, because he has more money than he needs.

He said: "The first time around I was the only songwriter, so I'm OK until the day I die. Sure you don't have to lose your house, but money is no comfort when you lose your career. In 1993 I realised I had more money than I could ever spend, so from that point I never worried about money."

For me, it's been more successful than the first time round

The 38-year-old star also admits he was shocked by the reaction the band - also consisting of Howard Donald, Jason Orange and Mark Owen - received when they reformed in 2006.

Gary explained: "From doing this comeback tour and releasing an album, it's just blown up. For me, it's been more successful than the first time round. And it feels a lot more comfortable - we're much happier than the first time around so it feels fantastic."
