22 Years Later, Here's the Richest Member of Fall Out Boy
There is no bringing back the 2000s, with their roaring and rebellious punk.
However, we can always thank the music scene's veterans when they return to their roots.
The American band Fall Out Boy evolved from an underground side project in the Chicago punk scene to a world-famous rock act.
There's probably no one who hasn't heard Dance, Dance, Sugar, and We're Goin Down, or Thanks for the Memories at least once. Ushering in the era of skateboards, high tops, and internet message boards, this band from Wilmette, Illinois, became a gateway to the world of pop-punk for many.
And now, after five years of silence, Fall Out Boy has released a new album! Unlike their 2018 release Mania, largely based on electronic and pop music, their new record, So Much (for) Stardust, experiments with 'that' pop-punk sound, strongly emphasising guitar and funk. The album has enjoyed success with both the public and critics.
In light of these developments, fans can't help but wonder how much each band member makes and which one of them is the most loaded.
4. Joe Trohman
Joe Trohman is the fourth wealthiest Fall Out Boy member. He plays the guitar and provides back vocals for the legendary band. He was at the band's heart along with bassist Pete Wentz when Fall Out Boy started playing together in 2003.
But don't let his fourth place fool you! Trohman's net worth is $12 million, which allows him to not only participate in other projects but also own the label Son Of Man Records.
3. Andy Hurley
In addition to Fall Out Boy, drummer Andy Hurley is known for his involvement in several hardcore punk and heavy metal bands. He is also a vegan activist. His net worth is estimated at $14 million..
2. Patrick Stump
Second place on the list goes to the band's vocalist, whose net worth is about $16 million.
This isn't surprising, considering that in addition to Fall Out Boy's enormous success, Stump has participated in numerous collaborations with other famous performers, released a solo album in 2011, and even appeared on television, starring in popular shows such as 90210, House M.D., and Law & Order.
1. Pete Wentz
Pete Wentz is a very prolific entrepreneur. He has been in several bands and owns his own record label, DCD2 Records (which has worked with many famous bands, including Panic! at the Disco).
He owned a fashion brand and a bar, was a TV host, and also cooperated with UNICEF and Invisible Children.
Though each member is active outside of the band, it is Fall Out Boy that has allowed them to each amass a fortune. The band has been on the Billboard 200 and Hot 100, won two Grammys, and sold over 7.5 million albums worldwide. We should all be happy about the success of these living legends!
