James Taylor | $80 Million

A variety of things can take up a person’s life. For James Taylor, this just so happened to be music. At a young age, he was already quite enthusiastic about it. In fact, he eventually learned the cello and, not long after, the guitar. Suffice to say, the journey doesn’t end there. Having found his singing voice along the way, Taylor then wrote his very first song when he was just 14 years old and, soon after, had found his way to performing coffeehouses.

Since then, Taylor has garnered a skyrocketing degree in the music industry thanks to the songs and albums he has released over the years. With that said, some of these notable titles that have graced the airwaves include You’ve Got a Friend, Fire And Rain, and his rendition of How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved by You). Thanks to that fame, the Rock and Roll Hall-of-Famer now also has a staggering net worth of $80 million.
