Paul McCartney, 80 – $1.2 Billion

Paul McCartney is the wealthiest star on this list, boasting a massive $1.2 billion as his fortune. It wouldn’t have been possible if not for his music career, which started with The Quarrymen in 1957 but shot to success with the famous British rock band The Beatles. He was their co-lead singer and bassist.

After the band split, McCartney embarked on a solo career and also managed the band he formed, Paul McCartney and the Wings, for a decade. His solo career has 26 studio albums, with the latest, McCartney III, released in December 2020, topping the Official Albums Chart in the UK. The 80-year-old has also released over 100 singles.
