2. Elvis Presley – $55 million 

Need we say more? It’s Elvis Presley! This iconic man was a hip-swiveling machine and raked in loads of adoring fans and cash during his lifetime. He continues to see huge success, earning $55 million even after his death in 1977. SEE ALSO: Chris Brown blames the devil for ruining his life – Sends out emotional message (Look)

Sure, as he aged he got a bit chunky (must have been the peanut butter and banana sandwiches with bacon) but he was a star singer who changed the music scene in the 1950s, 60s and 70s. He is still known as The King of Rock and Roll and people flock each year to his home in Graceland. If he were still alive, we are sure he would say “Thank you very much.”
