Brian Wilson – 78

Beach Boys wouldn’t be as large as it is today if it wasn’t for Brian Wilson. After all, he was the one who founded the band. This genius is widely recognized for his extraordinary musical aptitude and his excellent recording techniques. He has co-written and produced a lot of songs we all know today including I Get Around and Good Vibrations. Not only was he inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as the member of the Beach Boys, but Wilson also received two Grammy Awards.

He was taking up a degree in Psychology at El Camino Junior College when he decided it was not the right fit for him. He then called up his brothers Dennis and Carl, cousin Mike, and his friend Al and formed a band with them. It was the best thing he ever did. This 78-year-old superstar is now enjoying a net worth of $100 million.
