Bruce Springsteen | $500 Million

American singer-songwriter Bruce Springsteen has a musical career spanning almost six decades and achieved fame and success to a great degree in his profession, both as a solo artist and the frontman of the E Street Band. When the iconic singer-songwriter is touring in a given year, his annual earnings can easily reach $80 million, increasing his total net worth by an astounding $500 million. He has sold over 135 million albums globally, which made him one of the 35 best-selling musicians in history.

Inspired by a performance he saw on The Ed Sullivan Show by the Beatles, Springsteen purchased his first guitar in 1964. Shortly after, he began playing with a band called the Rogues at local venues in Freehold. Later that year, his mother bought him a Kent guitar, which she took out a loan for, which inspired his hit song The Wish.
