Vera Lynn – 101
Unlike most other celebrities on the list, Vera started as a singer for troops during World War II. According to her, she felt that this was the only way she could support the soldiers. After the war, she took her career to the next step, taking on roles in TV and being on the radio. She then received acclaim across the world, netting her a $20 million net worth. At 101 years old, Vera has stopped performing but she engages heavily with charitable organizations. Fun fact, she is also an official Dame of the United Kingdom!
