Dolly Parton, Singer-Songwriter, $350 million

Catering for a family of 12 children can be very tasking, and there’s no way the country music singer, Dolly Parton, could have had things easy, especially financially. Her parents struggled to provide for a large number of kids, and it was always difficult. It was in that environment, however, that Parton found her love for music.

She was always around musicians, and they inspired her to pursue her musical dreams. Parton started singing publicly at the age of 10 and became an outstanding musical talent that has won 11 Grammys and has 25 songs that hit no.1 on country music billboard 100 as of 2021.
