Beyoncé | $400 million

The brand Beyoncé is not just known for singing but for acting, as well. We know that it took the disbanding of her former band, Destiny’s Child, to propel the singer to great fame. In 2006, she released her second solo album, having previously made the public when the band was on hiatus. We can see from here that when it comes to opportunities, Beyoncé is able to spot and make use of them to her advantage.

One thing she risked her money for is her fashion brand, Ivy Park, which is doing remarkably well. There are, of course, some allegations of unethical business practices, but we hope they are not true. In addition to Ivy Park, Beyoncé’s management company has also made investments in Sidestep, an app for concerts and merchandise. It is not a big amount, but in case the app experiences a sudden growth, they would definitely make some money there.
