Bob Seger tops annual list of highest-paid musicians

In 2021 it looked like the musician’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Wednesday (April 24) that Seger is the highest-paid musician in the world, pulling in an astonishing $75 million between March 2023 and March 2024, a nearly $40 million lead over his closest competition.

People With Money’s factors

In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.

The American musician-singer has an estimated net worth of $215 million. He owes his fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Seger Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “Dearborn Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderseger - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Bob) and a fashion line called “Bob Seger Seduction”.

The ranking is significant for many Bob fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
