Ireland’s richest people have been revealed and some will surprise you

Lifestyles of the rich and the famous.

If we had this much money floating around, we would have probably bought a small island somewhere. RTÉ is doing a rich list show and has revealed to the Irish Mirror some of the candidates who are on the list from 30-16. The two part series will count down those at the top of the money tree in Ireland and they will also give the viewer an insight into what it takes to join the elite millionaire's club. Niall Horan is one of the youngest and highest entertainers on the list with a fortune of €44 million at the tender age of 23. Hozier is also on the list but is worth only 10% of Horan's fortune at €4.5 million while the wild-haired duo of Jedward come in at €1.5 million. Irish golfer, Rory McIlroy comes out on top on the sports rich list at €96 million which is surprisingly ahead of Conor McGregor whose fortune stands at €82 million. Irish footballers Seamus Coleman and Shane Long have €9 million and €5.1 million respectively and golfer Shane Lowry has also collected the same amount as Coleman. Shockingly enough, U2 are in the first half of the countdown as Bono and the boys have a combined wealth of €645 million. It's the luck of the Irish, eh?
