Ed Sheeran. Arguably the best lad in the music industry. He's charitable, humble and, I'll be honest, a fucking great musician.
Turns out, being a good guy sometimes pays off. Our Ed is currently raking in £30,000 a DAY. The average salary in the UK is currently £27,600... so by the time he's having his tea in the evening he's already made more than most of us. Even when he's doing nothing.
According to the Mirror, in 2015 he made £11million in pre-tax profits. The figures, provided by accounts sent to Companies House, show that he's doubled his profit since 2014 when he made £5.3 million.

He's come a long way since 2013 when he made a measly (please sense the sarcasm) £3.6 million.
His firm wrote a summary along with the report that stated: "revenue increased on the previous year due to the release of new material and continued exploitation of the existing sound recording."
The thing is, he revealed a while back that he limits himself to £1,000 a month which 'mainly goes on taxis' because if he had it all in one account he'd 'spend it all'. I feel him.

Ed, you may as well pack it in now; you can retire on that kind of cash. But please don't.
