DJ Tiesto is a real king of dancing music. He started his career in 1994 and during more than two decades in the industry he managed to save $150 million net worth. Although some issues estimated his wealth a little less, still he remains one of the highest-paid DJs in the world and earns more than $35 million each year. Thus in 2016 his annual earnings were estimated by Forbes as $38 million. He got that amount for selling of his albums, for performing in public and for endorsements. In 2016 he had more than 100 shows and reportedly earned impressive $2 million for it. He also got an impressive check (the amount is not known exactly) from 7Up for advertising the brand. A talented businessman, Tiesto founded AFTR:HRS, deep house imprint, last year.
Tiesto’s financial and professional success is hard to overrate. He was born to be a star with his unique manner to perform, with his sweet smile and well-sculpted body. Each his show gives to the audience unforgettable emotions and that’s why they come back again and again and buy incredibly expensive tickets, making Tiesto richer and richer from year to year.
As he tells now, he had never dreamed to earn his living as a musician, although music was his main passion. He performed at The Spock night club and created his own style of DJing, having mixed Dutch pop music and acid house music.
His first financial success came in 1995, when his skills finally were noticed by music producers and he was signed with Trashcan sub-label and released his first records. Initially DJ Tiesto collaborated with Arny Bink, his colleague and friend, with whom they founded their label and released “Forbidden Paradise”, which made Tiesto a star.
Being one of the richest DJs in the world, Tiesto never forgets about those, who were not so lucky. He is also a well-known philanthropist.
