J.K. Rowling – $1bn
J.K. Rowling pretty much hit it big with the Harry Potter books. Did you know that she was on welfare before? This is certainly an inspiring rags-to-riches story. The magical world that she created is nothing less than amazing.
Paul McCartney – $1.2bn
The success that Paul McCartney has achieved in the music world is definitely unparalleled. In spite of the fact that he rarely performs these days, he doesn’t really need to anymore. However, did you catch him in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales? Anyway, he came out with a collection of his completely discography in 2016, but you would already know this if you’re a fan.
