You may think this macabre but Forbes reports that some celebrities are still making bucks after they are dead! Due to royalties, the checks keep on coming.
Here's a quick list:
$40 million - Elvis Presely
$35 million - "Peanuts" creator Charles Schultz
$23 million - "Lord of the Rings" author J.R.R. Tolkien
$21 million - John Lennon
$18 million - Theodor "Dr. Seuss" Geisel
Can you imagine this? Some of them have bigger paychecks after death than when they were alive.
Elvis Presely, still making money after all these years. I guess, in a way, he is still alive.

Every time I think that I'm getting old, and gradually going to the grave, something else happens. -Elvis Presley
