American musician, singer-songwriter and composer Billy Joel has an estimated net worth of $180 million.
Joel has been known in the music industry since 1965. He joined the Echoes as pianist but he was fired due to refusal of wearing the same jackets with the band. After the band disbanded five years later, he signed a contract with Artie Ripp’s Family Production in 1971.
With his 13 studio albums, numerous concerts around the world, and 33 Top 40 hits in the United States, he has become the sixth best-selling recording artist, and third best-selling solo artist in America. Through ups and down from his personal life, he was a six-time Grammy Award winner, and inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1999.
William Martin Joel was born on May 9, 1949 in The Bronx, New York, United States.
