10. Mariah Carey: $510 million.
The fans of Mariah Carey should sigh in relief. She is still one of the richest musicians. Mariah is good at getting most out of her singing career. It has been the vehicle for going higher and having more. To prove it, the perfumes from Mariah Carey seems to have a great demand.
9. Jay-Z: $560 million.
How skillfully Jay-Z can deal with money! There is a funny statement: “Jay-Z says goodbye to come back again.” It helped him multiply his savings. He has under his belt 19 Grammy’s, and more than 100 million sold out records. Moreover, his trademark Rocawear and the marriage with Beyonce has made him much wealthier than he used to be.
8. Bono: $600 million.
The Irish singer has got the title of the world richest musician by a mere coincidence. He said “yes” to the suggestion of Larry Mullen Jr to create a rock band. As it turned out, the famous U2 had become a lucrative endeavor. Later on, he invested in a five-star hotel and the Elevation Partners firm. This philanthropic man does lots of charity work as he knows the boomerang law.
7. Celine Dion: $630 million.
Everyone would expect to see her in Forbes richest musicians. And everyone knows why. The smash-hit “My Heart Will Go On” has gained the greatest accolade in the world of music. More than 200 million of sold out records have turned into the unbelievable amount of money. She firmly grabbed the opportunity to get richer. Years passed by but she is still in Top 10.
6. P.Diddy: $700 million.
Another college dropout is on Top Ten richest men in the world. It seems that he does his business according to “the more you get, the more you invest.” P.Diddy hasn’t limited himself to recordings only. The label Bad Boy records and the producing of Mase and The Notorious B.I.G. have significantly enriched his profit.
5. Dr.Dre: $780 million.
It is hard to believe it, but Dr.Dre can boast of just two albums! However, it was enough to launch his trademark as well as a couple of world-famous singers like 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg, and Eminem. His headphones Beats By Dre have become the top one, having gained lots of money for the owner.
4. Madonna: $800 million.
Madonna would not be called Madonna if she hasn’t been on the list of Top 10 richest musicians in the world. She has been pumping hits into the industry of music since the 80’s. This singing traveler has toured around the world more than any singer can ever imagine! Music is her golden trade.
3. Herb Alpert: $850 million
He is the holder of numerous awards: more than 10 Platinum albums, 9 Grammy’s, 15 Gold albums and 72 million sales! Did you know that A&M records imply Alpert? This fact is one of many reasons for his wealth.
2. Paul McCartney: $1.1 billion
No doubt, one of The Beatles is here. The thing is that Mr. McCartney gets money from writing credits. It means he will be on the list of Top Ten Richest Men in the World forever. Beatlemania spread worldwide long time ago, but it is still popular nowadays. That is why the members of the immortal band are rich people.
1. Andrew Lloyd Webber: $1.2 billion
You don’t know his name, but you know such masterpieces as Jesus Christ Superstar, The Phantom of Opera, Cats, Evita, etc. Webber and Broadway are closely related to each other. He gets a profit from practically every show staged on Broadway and around the globe. His business called the Really Useful Group is the extremely lucrative enterprise that guarantees him the status-of-always-extremely-rich-man.
Great talent and hard work of these musicians made them extremely rich, and now they are wealthy enough to be on the list of the richest musicians in the world.

Benny Hinn Admits he went too far with prosperity message

Popular Israeli televangelist, Benny Hinn, has faulted pastors, whose sermons only focus on prosperity and living ostentatiously. Benny Hinn, while reflecting on Billy Graham’s death in a Facebook Live broadcast, called on preachers of the gospel to stop living extravagant lives and start living according to God’s instruction. According to him, everything should be about Jesus not other extravagant things, adding that he has never flown a private jet in his life. “We get attacked for preaching prosperity, well it’s in the Bible, but I think some have gone to the extreme with it sadly, and it’s not God’s word what is taught and I think I’m as guilty as others. Sometimes you go a little farther than you really need to go and then God brings you back to normality and reality,” Hinn, 65, said He admitted that as he has grown older and come to understand the Bible more, he now realizes that some of the things he learned from preachers wh...
