Not sure if anyone saw this already but check out #28 on the list: http://www.celebritynetworth.com/articl ... ers-world/ ***The figures contained in this list were acquired from all publicly available information including salaries, real estate holdings, divorces, record sales, royalties and endorsements. The final net worths come from a formula that takes out taxes, manager’s fees, agents’ fees, and lifestyle.*** The 50 Richest Lead Singers in the World: #1: Paul McCartney Net Worth – $800 Million (The Beatles) #2: Bono Net Worth – $600 Million (U2) ***There was a time when Bono’s net worth could have topped $1 billion. Through his private equity venture Elevation Partners, Bono purchased a 1.5% private stake in Facebook long before the IPO. Had the company achieved a $100 billion market cap, Bono may have been the first billionaire rock star. Currently Facebook’s market cap is $44 billion.*** #3: Jimmy Buffett Net Worth – $400 Million #4: Elton John Net Worth – $320 Million (Solo) #5: Mick Jagger Net Worth – $305 Million (The Rolling Stones) #6: Sting Net Worth – $290 Million (The Police, Solo) #7: Phil Collins Net Worth – $250 Million (Genesis, Solo) #8: Dave Matthews Net Worth – $250 Million (Dave Matthews Band) #9: Prince Net Worth – $250 Million #10: Dave Grohl Net Worth – $225 Million (Foo Fighters, Nirvana on drums) #11: Rod Stewart Net Worth – $220 Million #12: David Bowie Net Worth – $215 Million #13: Bruce Springsteen Net Worth – $200 Million (The E Street Band) #14: James Hetfield Net Worth – $175 Million (Metallica) #15: Axl Rose Net Worth – $150 Million (Guns N’ Roses) #16: Roger Waters Net Worth – $145 Million (Pink Floyd) #17: David Gilmour Net Worth – $130 Million (Pink Floyd) #18: Steven Tyler Net Worth – $130 Million (Aerosmith) #19: Jon Bon Jovi Net Worth – $125 Million (Bon Jovi) #20: Anthony Kiedis Net Worth – $120 Million (Red Hot Chili Peppers) #21: Sammy Hagar Net Worth – $120 Million (Van Halen) #22: Robert Plant Net Worth – $120 Million (Led Zeppelin) #23: Bruce Dickinson Net Worth – $115 Million (Iron Maiden) #24: Eric Clapton Net Worth – $115 Million (Cream, Solo) #25: Brian Johnson Net Worth – $90 Million (AC/DC) #26: Ozzy Osbourne Net Worth – $90 Million (Black Sabbath, Solo) #27: Gwen Stefani Net Worth – $80 Million (No Doubt, Solo) #28: Eddie Vedder Net Worth – $80 Million (Pearl Jam) #29: Bob Dylan Net Worth – $80 Million #30: Brian Wilson Net Worth – $75 Million (The Beach Boys) #31: Michael Stipe Net Worth – $75 Million (R.E.M.) #32: Trey Anastasio Net Worth – $75 Million (Phish) #33: Joe Elliott Net Worth – $70 Million (Def Leppard) #34: Peter Gabriel Net Worth – $70 Million (Genesis, Solo) #35: John Fogerty Net Worth – $68 Million (Creedence Clearwater Revival) #36: Stevie Nicks Net Worth – $65 Million (Fleetwood Mac, Solo) #37: Roger Daltrey Net Worth – $65 Million (The Who) #38: Chris Cornell Net Worth – $60 Million (Soundgarden, Audioslave) #39: Mark Hoppus Net Worth – $60 Million (Blink 182) #40: Tom DeLonge Net Worth – $60 Million (Blink 182) #41: Chris Martin Net Worth – $60 Million (Coldplay) #42: Billie Joe Armstrong Net Worth – $55 Million (Green Day) #43: Liam Gallagher Net Worth – $50 Million (Oasis) #44: Zack de la Rocha Net Worth – $50 Million (Rage Against the Machine) #45: Vince Neil Net Worth – $50 Million (Motley Crue) #46: Steve Perry Net Worth – $45 Million (Journey) #47: Jon Anderson Net Worth – $45 Million (Yes) #48: Maynard James Keenan Net Worth – $45 Million (Tool) #49: Jonathan Davis Net Worth – $45 Million (Korn) #50: David Lee Roth Net Worth – $40 Million (Van Halen) #51: David Byrne Net Worth – $40 Million (Talking Heads) #52: Thom Yorke Net Worth – $35 Million (Radiohead) #53: Jack White Net Worth – $30 Million (The White Stripes) #54: Geddy Lee Net Worth – $28 Million (Rush) #55: Rob Halford Net Worth – $25 Million (Judas Priest) #56: Geoff Tate Net Worth: $17 Million (Queensrÿche) #57: Gregg Allman Net Worth – $15 Million (Allman Brothers) #58: Scott Weiland Net Worth – $10 Million (Stone Temple Pilots) |

I find it hard to believe that Eddie is worth more than some of the people below him. |

But what about Fogerty's legendary collection of CCR socks, panties, and hoodies? Was all that money lost on egg futures?? |

I have serious doubts about the reliability of that site. Here is an example: You can search Adam Yauch of the Beastie Boys and the site tells you that he is/was worth $75 million. However, when Yauch died a few weeks back it was widely reported that the value of his estate was $6.4 million. The PJ definitely have big bucks but I would take the information on "Celebrity Net Worth" with a grain of salt. |

Net worth isn't just how much money you have in your savings account, dudes. |

Somewhere, Eddie Van Halen is making that grandpa face he does so well because he doesn't qualify for this list. |

Glad to see Scott Weiland made the top 50, he's been partying like it's 1994, since 1994. |

For Ten the band split royalties evenly and then switched to a 36% cut to Eddie, 16% to everyone else. But I don't think that matters much in the long run since album sales don't bring in big cash in the 21st Century. Matt might very well be the richest of all of them because of his dual success with Soungarden and PJ. I imagine Eddie has earned more than the rest of the original PJ guys but I'm sure his divorce cut his fortune in half. |

The only shocker on this list is Jimmy Buffet. I know he has had a good run, but 400 million? |
