Paul Simon – $75 million
Do you know who deserves credit for writing songs like “Sound of Silence,” “Bridge Over Troubled Water,” and “Mrs. Robinson”? The answer to that question is Paul Simon, who made up the first part of Simon and Garfunkel. The two of them went their own ways in 1970. Simon went on to release “Graceland,” which was influenced by the time that he spent in South Africa. When it was released, it sold 14 million copies and remains his most successful solo album to this day! He wrote screenplays too.
