Over the past few months, the British singer has been taking the world by storm, getting the most nominations in any award show he goes to, most recently the BRIT Awards in his own country - but how much has this kind of success affected Sam Smith's net worth?

He appeared in charts for the very first time back in 2012, when his single "Latch" ended up taking the charts by storm, reaching number eleven in the UK - and, only a few months later, Sam Smith's net worth continued to grow as he released a second single along with Nature Boy, "La La La," which ended up becoming his first-ever number one song.

Ever since, Sam Smith's net worth has continued to grow as the impressive 22 year-old singer takes up the charts in his native country and abroad, as well as breaking records and winning awards.

Earlier this week, The Guardian reported that there was yet another reason to be impressed with what's happened to Sam Smith's net worth: recently, the UK added another category to the way they measure charts success, namely streaming data, and the "Money on my Mind" singer took the historic first spot ever in the new measuring way!

As Sam Smith's net worth grows, so do the earnings of fellow BRIT Awards winners Ed Sheeran, Royal Blood and even Taylor Swift, as they're all in the first spots of the new streaming UK charts.

Of course, in the UK he racks up a lot of success, along with redhead compatriot Ed Sheeran, but he's proved his talents are well above the limitations of his own nation: in the past Grammy Awards 2015, the singer took home four Grammys and thanked his ex, Jonathan Zeizel, for having broken his heart, because it had earned him such huge awards success!

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Sam Smith's net worth currently stands at $15 million - quite a lot, considering he's been famous for less than three years!
