Elton John Playing Elton John has been touring relentlessly for years. He continues to perform with the same passion that has made him a household name for decades. He also is one of the richest British music millionaires, according to the Sunday Times newspaper.

The paper reported that John earned $470 million last year. That puts him eighth on the list of British millionaires. The amount he made, however, pales in comparison to the amount he has donated.

John has donated $60.4 million to charities for Aids,
medicine, children, and music in the past twelve months. The money he has donated has gone to help all of these causes, and along with the money, John has given assistance to many charities.

Joining him on the list of British millionaires were singers Mick Jagger at number nine, and Madonna and husband Guy Ritchie, at number six.

Paul McCartney, who recently settled a bitter divorce with ex wife Heather Mills, was third on the list. He was reported to have made $1 billion.
