8. Albert Einstein – $11 million
The young Albert Einstein was an inquisitive little boy with a passion for science and music. As we can see from his $11 million posthumous earnings, those interests have carried him very far. Einstein is touted as a genius for his theories on relativity and his insightful quotes on life. His famous equation e=mc2 is still highly regarded. We can thank his equations and research for many of life’s modern conveniences, as well as our appreciation for the simple things in life, such as imagination. After all, it was Einstein who said that “Knowledge is limited [but] imagination encircles the world.”
