They have the top two slots on the The Sunday Times Rich List 2021 of the wealthiest musicians in the U.K. and Ireland. McCartney has a net worth of $1.16 billion, which is a jump of almost $29 million from last year’s list. U2 came in second with a combined fortune of $877 million, up $52 million from last year.
Elton John is fourth with a fortune of $531 million, Mick Jagger fifth with $439 million, Keith Richards sixth with $417 million and Ed Sheeran in ninth with $311 million. Sheeran also topped the wealthiest “young musician” list.
