Adele – 142M GBP
Do you know Adele Laurie Blue Adkins? We’re sure you know her by her first name! Adele is the wealthiest Brit below 30 years old. She has an Oscar, a Grammy, and a Golden Globe to her name! She has sold more than 100 million copies of her records, which has made her one of the best-selling musicians on the planet. It is interesting because her wealth allegedly comes only from her music. No, this does not include any endorsements or paid spots whatsoever. She rejected offers from Las Vegas, L’Oreal, and even the Super Bowl because she believes it cheapens her work. We have to say we are incredibly impressed by her principles and everything she has achieved!
