That's almost half a billion dollars. Not too surprising though, considering he's been at it over 40 years and they're the Greatest Show On Earth. |

Amazing that you can make more money off a few cheesy musicals than off 40 years of rock'n'roll circus. Anyway, I suppose the list would look different if Allen Klein didn't own the rights to some of the most famous songs -- have there been any estimates of Allen Klein's fortune? |

Not really. Its commercially more popular in many cases and a musical can run simultaneously in different cities around the world for years at a time. Then you can add in the profits from the soundtrack records plus the fact that most of his musicals get made into movies.
Plus, he's also been doing it for about 40 years now, and always very successfully. |

he'd rather be behind him than in front of him, I would think......
Maybe this is why he keeps touring - because he wants to overtake him... |

Mick paid quite a lot to his previous wives/conquests, while Elton's lovers kept their mouth shut. That's probably the reason.
Besides....Elton has a funeral-charge that surpasses Micks holiday-income. |

I can't believe there are 333 other people in the UK that are richer than Mick. I mean what do you have to do to beat Mick. and also how come Keith has 25 million less? is it cuz he has more houses and spends more $? and could they have done without ronnie and charlie? it doesn't seem fair but the multiplier effect is powerful I'm sure

I bet Mick wins more because he's on charge of the Stones, he drives the whole circus, completely fair IMO. |

Mick must make 50 Million pounds per year in investment income! |

I'd actually say it's a pretty conservative figure. I bet there's squillions more "hidden". |

Run a successful business? Have inherited wealth?
Please. Britain isnt exactly a third world country of about 1 million people.

Mick and Keith get more due to publishing royalties.
It doesnt seem fair? They're worth over a billion dollars between them!!

Ronnie Wood has the potential to top the charts. Speaking with a NY art gallery dealer, I was told some of Woody's large oils are selling for over $1,000,000.00 US$! RONNIE has lots of paintings left to sell, all over the world, which are rising in value as we speak! Anyone who bought a Woody when they were going for a few hundred made a good investment! |

Absolutely. That's why God made Swiss banks.

I can't believe no one has complained that McCartney is worth more alone than the Stones combined. |
