32. Adam Lambert (Voice) - $48 Million

Adam Lambert came into our homes as an American Idol contestant and then just never left. America immediately opened up their arms for him for his outspoken attitude and great singing voice. The outspoken attitude doesn't pay the bills though. The voice does. He's kept his voice protected with an insurance policy, which is a great idea. Let's say he loses his voice and is forced to go into construction. There's no American Constructor show to launch him to the top.

Wouldn't that be cool if there was a version of American Idol for every profession? You could do American Accountant if you were good with numbers to land a top job as Donald Trump's accountant or something like that. Or American Mortician. Let's be honest, most of them wouldn't be televised, but it would still be cool.
