This, one of the coolest I've seen so far!
But movin' on...
Another little Hallowe'enish item today. New list is out of the highest earning DEAD Celebrities. These guys make more cash from the grave in a year then most of us will in 10 lifetimes. Doesn't seem right, does it? Interesting to see Albert Einstein on the list. Don't know if I'd consider him a celebrity; Famous Yes, but a Celebrity??.... A discussion then ensued, and Kristina Mameli reminded me Politicians, Scientists (like Einstein), Etc. ARE considered Celebs. By definition, someone well known....
Hmmm, you win this round Mameli! Gonna, need to consult my lawyer, and dictionary on this one!
Anywho, here's the list:
Top Earning Dead Celebrities of 2010:
10. Composer Richard Rodgers ... $7 million.
9. NY Yankees owner George Steinbrenner ... $8 million.
8. Physicist Albert Einstein ... $10 million.
7. Children’s author Dr Seuss ... $11 million.
6. ‘Millennium Trilogy’ author Stieg Larsson ... $15 million.
