List is first ridiculous and second it's totally wrong. First, a dead person can't actually earn any money. Maybe there is money coming in somewhere for previous works that are now being managed or earned by someone alive...but if that's the qualification; then a whole bunch of other dead folks would pass this list like it was standing still. Example: Henry Ford's corpse "earning" any money for his little idea on mass production?
Andy Warhol is still dead??
1:11 I see your point but, I think the list is for “celebrities” how ever they define a “celebrity”.
Here is my observation. It looks to me like Generation X has passed up the Baby Boomers in buying dead singer crap.
Yeah, Ol Albert was quite the Hollywood celebrity.
3:18, Einstein is not a celebrity, but he's on their list.
