(Photo by Tim Whitby/Getty Images)This year, for the 7th year in a row, Michael Jackson is the highest earning dead celebrity on the Forbes list. His estate made over $46 million in the last 12 months (despite the Leaving Neverland controversy earlier this year).
In 2nd place is Elvis Presley ($30 million), 3rd is cartoonist Charles Shulz ($29 million), 4th is Arnold Palmer ($23 million) and Bob Marley was 5th ($20 million). 6th - Dr. Seuss ($19 million). 7th - John Lennon ($14 million). 8th - Marilyn Monroe ($13 million). 9th - Prince - $12 million). 10th - Nipsey Hussle, who was sadly killed this past March ($11 million).
The list measured earnings from October 1st 2018 to October 1st 2019.
I'd be happy to make even a tiny percentage of these numbers (alive preferably).
