These people deserve their money. They worked all their lives. And politicians don't deserve their money.

At least three on the list are dead so why are George Harrison & John Lennon missing ?

Never heard of Phish in my life how can they possibly be worth more than page plant gilmour etc

R.I.P. Jimmy Buffett, George Michael, and David Bowie.

How did Bob Geldof end up with 150 million , he sang one good song about 300 years ago?

...and BARRY GIBB (BEE GEES) and PER GESLE ( ROXETTE)??????? Gold Songwriters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😅😅😅😅

Rockers from the British Isles reign supreme!

I think this should be re-titled richest musicians considering many are not rock stars but rather pop stars

Есть масса случаев, когда люди решаются конвертировать свой талант в деньги, но я не знаю ни одного, чтоб деньги были превращены в талант.😊

Im very surprised that Townsend isnt on the list as he is the songwriting force of the who for very nearly 60 years

How stupid is to have English and British flags as two different country... Will they ever learn. You can have English, Scottish, Welsh and Northern Ireland or you can have the British flag, but NOT both ways... Dammit

At least credit Rod Stewart as British rather than just English, he is proud of his Scottish heritage.

klar hat Paul McCartney das größte Vermögen . Er hat ja auch mit abstand das Meiste in seinem Leben geleistet .

Bob Geldof asked all of us for money to donate to those starving, I guess he kept a lot of that money because I can only recall about 2 successful songs he wrote. He’s the biggest surprise on the list other than George Micheal who I mistakenly thought was deceased.

McCartney siempre nro 1.

There's a huge difference between net worth and self worth that makes some have non rich priceless and some very rich worthless.

Why is Rod Stewart not richer? I bought one of his albums in 1984.

Amazing! Loved watching this!

Where is the Gibb brothers? Collectively as a group (Bee Gees) they were reputedly worth over $1B. Surely Barry Gibb has to be worth over $500M.

No Jeff Lynn?! My God he wrote and produced the greatest music of all time!

La money que tendrían Sting y Paul si hubiesen seguido con Police y The Beatles porque así y todo son mega ricos, que la disfruten, se la han ganado a puro talento

Very valuable information 🎉

Barry gibb?

Very dubious set of earnings - last I heard George Michael & Charlie Watts are dead and have been for some time !!!!!!!!

I now the first is Paul McCartney 🎉🎙🎶🎸👍👍👍he is the best singer Songwriter of the World 😊🥂🍾Beatles live for ever 🎉

やっぱりポールは凄いな　１９８０年頃は当時のレートで１００億円の年収を何年か上げていたよ

How is Barry Gibb (and Bee Gees) not on this list ??????????????

I’m so proud I contributed to Paul‘s, Ringo‘s and Roger‘s safety net. 🤩👍

you can have all the money in the world, but if you don't have health, it's over!

Thanks to school kids' pocket money in the 60s and 70s 😃

This is actually very interesting. For example, John Deacon and Brian May (Queen) are both from the UK, but Roger Taylor is from England. Nick Mason and David Gilmour (Pink Floyd) are also from the UK but Roger Waters is from England 😀

Barry Gibb? Si está Abba deben estar bee gees. Abba y Bee Gees no se comparan pero pertenece a una época y una línea. Abba: Pop, dance, música disco, pop rock, glam rock Bee Gees: R&B Disco, rock ,pop rock pop, pop barroco, rock psicodélico, soft rock, pop psicodélico.

United State produce a lot of great legendary rock star and not to mention or the other legendary artist in the music industry👍🔥🔥

Me extraña que no esté en la lista Barry Gibb

🎼🎶🎵🔊🎸🎸Que gran época la que vivimos comprando los discos vinyl de éstos insuperables artistas. Ahora salen estadísticas de " vistas" en las redes sociales pero la gente ahora lo produce y lo ve todo sin sentimientos ni propósito de vida. Y existen sólo en "la nube" tecnológica. 😢

In Sweden we do not consider the Swedes on jour list (=ABBA) as ROCKSTARS but rather as singers/composers

People have been saying Paul was worth ~$1 billion for 20 years. You think he’s not in the stock market? (Warren Buffet is a good friend.) He’s probably worth more like $10 billion today.

Frank Sinatra / dean martin / prince / Michael Jackson /

Adam Clayton is 100% Irish !! 🇮🇪

Good to see those boys, (mostly), do so well, knowing they earned every penny!

Sir Paul Mcartney. WOW

Jimmy Buffet died three weeks ago. RIP 🙏

No Elvis, Freddie Mercury, Pete Townsend, John Lennon, or Jeff Lynne?????

All these "gentlemen" sold their souls for this vast wealth.

Hello. Could you tell me the software you use to do the slide effect? Thank you

As a music lover, I contributed a bit to the wealth of many of these legends.....do you think they'd object if I asked for a loan? 🤣

Other than Bono and Elton John it is very sad that with all that money other musicians do not contribute to improve the lives of those in need.

The drummer and bass player for U2 twice as rich as Page and Plant....hahahahahahaha omg I can't stop...hahahahahahaha.

Rest in peace Jimmy...

Billy Joel really recovered well after being left broke by a crooked accountant.

There are no Punk Rock Millioners, so now we know who is playing music for love of it and ideas.

Geldof must have kept some of the live aid money, cause his band didn't sell enough for him to get that rich.

Some of their wealth accumulated over their careers would have to be from investments as well not just music. Think Bono and Steve Jobs Rod Stewart and football I'm surprized that Gene Simmons didn't appear separately with his merch empire. Maybe he didn't want the recognition Many have sold there catalogue of music for 100's of millions good for them

Interesting fact about Phil Collins being worth more than Ringo Starr, as a kid Phil was in the audience in the theatre scene of A Hard Day's Night.

Interesting l agree with the fact that John and George are not registered on this list as it does include those who have gone to R n R heaven..according to a recent Billboard post The Beatles have the most No. 1's collectively - singles and albums with 39 No. 1's ..McCartney is notably mentioned with collectively 56 No. 1's ..so Macca is The GOAT or The OG..just saying

Props to Phil Collins’ attourneys who managed to keep him with all that amount after his divorces.

Also you must take into account the difference between American dollars, and British Pounds. Another thing to look at is the citizenship. Jagger lives primarily in the states, lower tax rate. Most English rock stars left England decades ago because of the high tax rates and are citizens of other countries for lower tax rates. Bands like The Who still live in, and are English citizens who get bent over with high tax rates. Many on this list sold their music rights for huge lump sums. Another example, Townshend was worth 125 million and then divorce. Cut his wealth in half and now built it back up to 150 million in a high tax country.

Barry Gibb wrote 14 Billboard nummer 1 hits but only has 40 million dollars. The Bee Gees were mismanaged. He should have gotten 300 million.

All in there 80 s soon to be the richest men in cemetery ,,spend it 😊

You should make a list of how much money celebrities have donated to charity.

#25 Kiss - they used a tribute band photo...LOL

Был бы жив уникальный Фредди, он бы потеснил многих в этом ряду!

How did Mr Geldof accumulate 150 million ? certainly not through his music

W Piano Man

Cornelio the Queen 3. 3 billones

Jimmy Buffet at #2….. I really have my doubts

Didn't know McCartney was a billionaire, I thought Buffett had them all beat.

Talent will out.

Where did Geldof get the money from, wasn't his music that's for sure....

What is the authority for these figures? How accurate are they really?

Someone tell Gene Simmons he now has enough cash to ride a sub to the Titanic!

How did you arrive at these numbers and is their wealth from the music business only or other investments?

Nice to have a rich life isn't it huh while others struggle everywhere to make ends meet they should cut back on what entertainers make while others can't enjoy simple things

The main man in my humble opinion in at number 33😊

I didn’t know Erik Clapton from England 😊

1 billion for singing Cheeseburger in Paradise, Come Monday, and Margaritaville

Good for them hope they enjoy themselves, as none of them look really happy...

Figures picked out of the air - completely invented,

Money can't buy you love Paul. Remember Heather.

None of them deserve that kind of money it's Obscene.

Are you sure those arent listed backwards? Those with the most talent are at the bottom while those Involved in non profit concerts, seemed to have profited well.

Only goes to show how much the public ( fans ) get ripped off ?

What about Slash and Claus Maine,,Bee Gees

The Edge 399,999,99 worth of hype. 1 cent worth of talent.

❤❤❤❤😊

A lot of them are british or english and became rich in the US of A. But the music wasn t getting any better !

I think Madonna, Rihanna, Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, Elvis, Michael Jackson, John Lennon, George Harrison should be included in this list. I also don`t think the members of Kiss are THAT rich. Gene Simmons is not worth hundreds of million. That`s bullshit. As far as the female members of ABBA being as rich as the boys. That`s impossible. The boys wrote the songs, and own the copyright to every single ABBA song. That should make them much richer than the girls. Paul McCartney is probably the richest pop star in the world, followed by Elton John. Elton John has made almost $1 billion on his farwell tour. And it`s not as if he was broke before that tour started, so he is definitely extremely wealthy. Btw. How did Sting become so rich? That figure seems very unlikely to me.

When they meet their maker it won’t matter.

You miss Neil Young

ビージーズ、スティービー・ワンダー、マイケル・ジャクソン、マドンナ....名前がなぜ無いんだ？

Ok McCartney deserves the first position. But who hell is Jimmy Buffet??😂

Charlie Watts,David Bowie, George Michael?

Why Agnetha gets lees than Bjorn and Frida?

А где Сэр Эндрю Ллойд Вэббер. Там уже только авторские под лярд?!!!

And I though professional athletes made an absurd amount of money this is even more absurd lol!

And what do they have in common? They all wrote, produced and/or performed real music rather than speaking quickly ir wailing over a computer generated backing track

Says something about British v American rock/pop music. For every American there were 2 Brits. For mine the British are so much better at it.

Forgot about Ian Gillan he did Deep Purple,Rainbow,Black Sabbath then went back to Deep purple should be renamed “Deep Pockets”!

Paul McCartney I knew was the richest

Hard to Judge their worth , considering if they are counting their properties, Companies, Royalties or Live concert shows , John Lennon & Paul McCartney received near equal Royalties for their Beatles Songs because they were co-written together , in early 2000 , McCartney was the highest grossing musician in the world by him playing live concerts at $ 50,000,000 yr , Rumers are Paul was worth $ 1,000,000,000 , John Lennon/ Yoco Ono was worth about the same, $ 1, 000,000,000 due to their Royalties at 1 point Elton John was near Bankrupt due to his shopping and spending sprees, at one of Elton's spending sprees he spent $350,000 on clothes , jewelry and other personal items in Paris France , that's when his accountants told him he's nearly broke , MANY FACTORS INVOLVED IN ESTIMATING THEIR TOTAL WORTH
