Star’s Net Worth: $500 million*
Annual Protection Cost: $2 million*

Sir Elton John has a net worth of $500 million. He has been one of the world’s most famous musicians for over fifty years, and his albums and concerts are best-sellers whenever he releases something new. Needless to say, the singer has millions upon millions of fans, so he has to keep a bodyguard close by.

Pictured here is Jeffrey Wenniger, his former bodyguard. Wenniger worked for the Los Angeles Police Department before leaving public safety and becoming a private personal security contractor. He was John’s bodyguard from 2002 until 2014. After twelve years, the two parted ways.
