Elton John – $500 million

Sir Elton John, British singer and composer, has a colorful acting and music career spanning decades and he has amassed a huge fortune along the way. The multi-hyphenated star is widely recognized as one of the most successful and decorated solo artists in music history, having received more awards than he can count and having sold more than 300 million records throughout his career. He is best known for his 1997 record-breaking single “Candle in the Wind”.

Other than singing and going on tour, he also owes his $500 million net worth to the work he has done composing original music for Broadway productions. Given his massive wealth, there is no question that Elton has earned a solid credit score. Although he is already in his early 70s, there appears to be no stopping Elton John, not even retirement!
