Neil Sedaka | $300 Million

Neil Sedaka has a fruitful career in the music industry as a singer, pianist, as well as a composer. His parents’ investments in their son started with him taking piano lessons when he was in second grade. Later on, he enrolled in Julliard School of Music from the ages of eight to 16. He became inclined to rock music where he partnered with Howard Green. The two gained notoriety with their song Stupid Cupid, which was sung by Connie Francis.

Sedaka formed the band called The Tokens and had a hit single, The Lion Sleeps Tonight. His music gained traction in the 60s with hits like Stairway to Heaven, Run, Samson, Run, You Mean Everything to Me, and Breaking Up is Hard to Do. Unfortunately, with The Beatles taking the world by storm during the time, Sedaka’s record sales started to decline. Still, he has gained a huge net worth thanks to his tours and albums that he has been consistently releasing.
