According to Forbes, Cobain, the former Nirvana frontman, earned $50 million between October 2005 and October 2006, while Presley earned just $42 million in the same time period. Others notable dead earners are Charles Schulz, creator of the Peanuts comic strip ($35m), the Beatles’ John Lennon ($24m) and Albert Einstein ($20m).
