Adele makes a fortune in royalties each day

Adele earns $65,600 a day thanks to her chart success, according to newly published accounts.

The “Rolling In The Deep” hitmaker, whose two albums “19″ and “21″ have topped charts around the world, has $16.4 millionĀ  in the bank and $7.3 million due in royalties, reports Britain’s The Sun.

Adele’s company Melted Stone Ltd’s accounts cover the year to April 2012 and were substantially increased on the previous year – when she had assets of just $545,600.

The publication reports that the 24-year-old’s bank balance is set to be boosted further by her hit theme for James Bond movie “Skyfall,” for which she bagged a Golden Globe award last month.
