although Taylor Swift has been keeping a low profile musically over the past
couple of years she's back with a new music video that's already destroyed
YouTube's Ewing records for a solo artist with more than a hundred million
views in under a week and when she says on her new song that there is no one
like her well she's not really lie at least when it comes to her lifestyle
Taylor is pretty fly and by that I mean she's gotten out one foot to private
jets that could run up to 40 million dollars apiece and when she's on the
ground she's still rolling around in style and one of her many cars including
a 7-speed Audio are eight worth around too much okay also a Porsche 911 Turbo
worth around 150 grand every cently there was another car in Taylor's garage
as a stolen car crashed into the front gates of a Rhode Island home after a
wild police chase Lake Taylor once said nothing good starts in a getaway car
and while the front gate of a Rhode Island estate might be a little banged
up it's no problem for Swift because she's also a real estate mogul owning 84
million dollars worth of properties including her twenty five million dollar
Beverly Hills mansion and her 20 million dollar New York penthouse according to
celebrity net worth to Swift is worth four hundred million dollars raking in
an estimated 150 million per year now a few years ago it was estimated that
Taylor would become a billionaire by the time she turned 30
well she turned 30 this year and although she's only about halfway there
with new music and a new tour to follow it seems like t-swift might reach that
goal before the ripe old age of 31 she's also been known to pick herself up some
elaborate gifts on her very own birthday now can you guess what she spent
$100,000 on for her 24th birthday sound off in the comments down below the
answer will be at the end of this video what's going on guys it's pro michael
crichton with the rich life of taylor swift's and we've recently covered Wiz
Khalifa as well as some youtubers like PewDiePie and Mister beets but we want
to hear from you guys in the comments down below on who we document next
alright I'll see you guys after the intro by the way we've been doing a lot
of these in our Spanish channel and they've been blow it up
Taylor Swift was born on December 13 1989 in Reading Pennsylvania to her
father Scott Kingsley Swift and her mother Andrea her father was a
stockbroker for Merrill Lynch and her mother was a marketing executive so
Swift she saw success in her family from an early age in her younger years they
were spent on the family's Christmas tree farm in Wyoming yeah
that's apparently a real thing but Swift she sees a different vision for herself
so it's grandmother was a professional opera singer and Taylor was drawn to
performing as a child Taylor started singing at local events by the age of 10
and even sang the star-spangled banner at a Philadelphia 76ers game at the age
of 11 by 12 she was ringing her own songs on the guitar after a computer
repairman Willy taught her some chords shouting with a that guy no Taylor knew
that she wanted to be a country music star and would often visit the mecca of
country music Nashville so you know try and get a record deal and while her
early demo tapes didn't get her any notice at first after her parents signed
her on with a big New York based music manager
well Taylor eventually signed to RCA through their artist development program
she was going back and forth to Nashville with her mom so much that
eventually her family moved to Tennessee but her childhood it didn't last very
long because after crushing her performance at a showcase at the
Bluebird Cafe in Nashville well she was spotted by Scott Borchetta who's ciders
who would deal with Big Machine Records and she became the youngest ever
songwriter to sign a deal with Sony by 16 she was already approaching superstar
status as her single Tim McGraw landed in the top ten in the country charts and
since then she's received numerous platinum plaques number one hits and
accolades from Grammys to VMAs although you know not everyone agreed with her
with all her victories well over this I'm really happy for you imma let you
finish but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time
one of the best videos on town although according to Kanye well that moment it
only made her more famous you know how many times MTV ran that footage again
cuz it got them more ratings you know how many times they announced Taylor was
gonna give me the award because they got them more ratings all the
acknowledgement for her hard work is nice but it's Taylor's tours that
bringing the majority of her cash their very first tour 2009 earned her roughly
seventy five million dollars with 1.2 million tickets sold over the course of
118 shows and from there well our tours they only got bigger and more lucrative
her reputation stadium tour brought her in two hundred sixty six point 1 million
dollars making it the highest-grossing tour in US history the tour sold over 2
million tickets and on average while billboard estimates that she brings in
seventeen dollars of merchandise purchased per ticket so with two million
tickets well that's another thirty four million dollars not to mention our
online merch store that frequently launches new collections including $40
t-shirts $65 sweaters and $30 hats she also filmed a Netflix documentary to
capture the reputation tour and although we don't know the exact amount the deal
was worth well we've got to assume it was at least a few million dollars she
recently signed one of the most important deals in recent music business
history with Universal Music Group where she was able to get control of all her
own masters she also bargained for other artists by negotiating a deal where UMG
has to share proceeds from their stake and Spotify with musicians on their
label and artist we'd be getting a pretty nice payout thanks to T Swift
regardless of how low the percentage is because um G stake is worth about 1
billion dollars in the company now this comes after she boycotted Spotify and
criticized Apple music earlier in her career
due to their low artist royalties so although she's rich well she's
definitely using her influence to make sure her and her contemporaries well
they're all getting a fair piece of the pot now if you think we're done talking
about her earnings while we're just getting started
of course t-swift she also has them sponsorships no over the years she's
partnered with basically every major brand you could possibly think of so
let's run through a list of some of them there's kids there's AT&T Diet Coke
covergirl ups ABC Ticketmaster Comcast American Express Target and Taylor was
even a global welcome ambassador for New York City and like she's not even from
there oh well hi we get it the girl makes a lot of money but how she spends
it is even more interesting no Taylor she owns two private jets the first of
the salt forgot the Sterry falcon 900 and this is worth around forty million
dollars it's not expensive if I can't even pronounce it no she bought that one
in 2011 and it's got 12 seats so there's plenty of room for an entourage now on
the nose of the jet the number 13 is painted which is her favorite number and
the same number that she draws on her hand before every show for good luck on
the engine you can see and eight nine eight ts written with the 89 standing
for her birth dear now the second number eight being the number of number one
single she had the time of purchase and TS well it stands for you guessed it
this sucks kidding of course it stands for Taylor
Swift but just a year later Swift got another private jet a Dassault Falcon 50
which is a little cheaper with prices online ranging from one to six million
now these jets are good for a short flight and have nine seats for
passengers in terms the car she's got a few of them she's got a white Audion
eight a Porsche 911 and keeping a country an all pink Chevy Silverado
she's also been spotted hopping out of a Cadillac Escalade which will run her
over a hundred thousand dollars but her first ever splurge was buying the car
that Regina George from Mean Girls drove around in it's Alexis
SC 430 and Swift she told the Guardian that it was sort of a revenge purchase
more than cars though t-swift she loves her properties she reportedly has an 84
million dollar real estate portfolio that includes eight properties in four
different states this includes her twenty five million dollar mansion in
Beverly Hills the house is over ten thousand square feet with seven bedrooms
and ten baths apparently she plans to turn the house
into a Historic Landmark one day soon the Beverly Hills Cultural Heritage
Commission has even voted in favor of it the home was previously owned by movie
icon Samuel Goldwyn so Swift and her team will they plan to restore the home
to as close as original state as possible she also has a 20 million
dollar new york penthouse now this place it was apparently previously owned by
the Lord of the Rings director Peter Jackson
I guess she only lives in places that were good enough for Hollywood's finest
I don't know and since Taylor loves New York so much
well she recently bought an entire NYC block in Tribeca for close to 50 million
dollars and here is her Rhode Island mansion worth 6 million dollars sitting
at 12,000 square feet although I think she'll be needing a front gate or
getting it fixed at least these go along with her Nashville pads which include a
three thousand two hundred forty square foot three million dollar condo and a
5,600 square foot estate worth around three million dollars as well but
Taylor's generous with her money as she also donates a lot of it back toward the
causes recently she gave away one hundred and thirteen thousand dollars to
an LGBTQ advocacy group called the Tennessee Equality project Shima bought
a homeless fan and her entire family a house now the fan was eight months
pregnant when she met the singer and Taylor felt connected enough to her
story to help her out the craziest part about
it is that she didn't even publicize it herself
good stuff Taylor and on her 24th birthday will she donated $100,000 to
the Nashville Symphony sounds probably not like his lavish of his purchase as
you guests but that's the answer to your
question off the top alright guys that's all I got for you in this episode of the
rich life my name of course is Michael McCrudden we need you guys to let us
know who to document next in the comments down below I'll see you guys in
another video Oh
