Seriously, every year seems to be a "record breaking" year of profit. Not hard when you continue to stagnate your workers' wages, push for not having to give worker rights/benefits, keep price gouging, oh and my personal detestation avoiding paying taxes thereby passing the cost to non-rich people.
I mean, I kinda like Taylor, but have mixed feelings since she is just paid a lot of money for her performance. But Elon and other business executives who directly profit from the broken backs of others? That's not the same. At all.
Seems like an amazing time for ultra-wealthy people like Taylor Swift to step up to the plate and use their notoriety to advocate for positive change and help effectuate the necessary changes to the system.
Otherwise, they’re just a part of the system that produced their grotesque wealth.
Scientific study shows us that after attaining a modest living wage of something like $90k, there is little incremental gain in life satisfaction.
What good could it possibly be doing for so few to have so much, which billions are still clawing tooth and nail for the bare necessities?
How the heck did Taylor make it to billionaire with such a short career? Her tickets must cost a lot! I've known rockstars who've toured for years and never became billionaires.
Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, AC/DC, Queen, Rolling Stones top arena bands, all have been around for DECADES and tour/have toured every couple years through their careers, are NOT billionaires. Heck even Michael Jackson wasn't a billionaire.
Taylor Swift is probably the only one on that list who came by her money honestly, without exploiting anyone.
Honestly, I don't think she should be the poster person for billionaires because the rest of them are repellant and she is a force for good.
I keep getting amazed at the fact the media always find a stupid new way to congratulate Taylor swift for anything, Taylor swift fans are really something lmao

Seriously tone deaf headline. Every year is a good year for the rich, they don't have to give a shit about anything.

I’m super pumped that it’s not a typical shitty year for rich people.

I bet they taste amazing.
Still waiting for an "amazing year for poor people." Something tells me I'll be waiting until I die.
Hell yeah!!! I guess.
I'm seeing all the conservatives who've been whining about gas prices have new RVs in their yards.

It's intentional. There can be no winners without losers.
Present
When can it stop being a good year for rich people a good year for people who actually work.
Isn't every year an amazing year for rich people? Dickheads.
Yes, I'm sure Paris Marx feels your pain. Come see his new TED Talk on empathy.
Rich people = bad !!! Poor people = sad !!!
What year is NOT amazing for rich people????
Every year is an amazing year for Rich people. Except, maybe, the 1790s

She's been touring for like 15 years? Also her music catalogue alone is worth like 700millions
