The 17-year-old "Harry Potter" star's wealth raised ￡8 million in the past year, as royalties come through, taking him to an estimated ￡14 million, and placing him firmly among the list of the world's 5,000 wealthiest people.
Philip Beresford, who put the list together, said Radcliffe - thanks to the ongoing Potter series would not have to worry about finance for a very long time.
"He is still at school but he is in a position where he will never have to work again. Money has been pouring in to his personal company, largely from royalties he is paid every time the films are shown on TV”, said Beresford.
"He may also have negotiated a share of the profits from the films or a share of the merchandising money. If he wants to go to university, we can safely say he won't need to worry about a student loan", added Philip.
The youngest woman on the list is soul singer Joss Stone. The 19 year-old
singer has only released two albums so far but has collected an estimated
fortune of ￡6 million.
