Ed Sheeran, Singer-Songwriter, $200 million

All over the world, no one can claim not to know who Ed Sheeran is in the music industry. The London singer has achieved global fame with hit songs like “Thinking Out Loud” and “Perfect” and is still dominating the industry with songs like “Shivers” from his 2021 unreleased album.

Sheeran struggled before achieving career success. He had spent nights homeless, sleeping in underground train stations and on heating vents just to stay warm. He played his music in small places with the few people who would listen and kept at it until his audience started getting bigger. He finally got to the limelight with the song “The A Team.”
