Billy Connolly: ~ $20 Million

Another comedian on the list is Billy Connolly, who started his career back in the ’60s after becoming a folk singer in the Scottish folk-rock band, The Humblebums. He played alongside his friends Gerry Rafferty and Tam Harvey. In 1971, Billy decided to pursue a solo path as a musical artist and a stand-up comic at the same time. After working as a musician, Connolly’s funny introductions to his songs became longer and longer.

It was this gradual change in his sets that eventually nudged Billy Connolly into becoming a comedian. Billy appeared in several films and TV series, including Indecent Proposal, Muppet Treasure Island, The Boondock Saints, The Last Samurai, and Brave. We believe he’s sorted out his investments when he announced he would stop touring as a comedian. He is worth $20 million as of writing. In addition to his huge net worth, he has earned the respect of his followers for his unique style, where he mixes a casual and folky presentation with often hard-hitting social commentary.
