PAUL MCCARTNEY – 79 YEARS OLD

The music industry would not be what it is today without the degree of contribution from musicians like Paul McCartney. For those of you who do not know, McCartney is a member of the legendary English band The Beatles. They are one of— if not the most— influential rock bands in history. Paul, together with his bandmates, reached the height of their career in the ’60s. In the ‘70s, The Beatles made international headlines when they announced they would be disbanding. This obviously broke a lot of fan’s hearts. However, this also paved the way for McCartney to establish his solo career.

After building a career of his own, he went around the globe touring and making music with other artists. As a songwriter, he penned songs like I Wanna Be Your Man by The Rolling Stones and Fame by David Bowie. Currently, he continues to make music with today’s hottest singers. As fruit for his hard work, Mccartney is one of the world’s wealthiest musicians with a total net worth of £800 million.
