Look, we all know Taylor Swift is Scrooge McDuck–levels of wealthy. But...guys. The precise amount of $$$ she's raking in is seriously staggering—especially over the past few years. Since 2020 (when her net worth was a mere $365 million), Taylor has released approximately one million new albums (with The Life of a Showgirl on its way!!), embarked on her Eras Tour, and come out with a concert film—so it's no shock that her net worth has grown hundreds of millions in the span of just a few years.
So, yeah, while the rest of us were stalking her squad on socials and trying to decipher the meaning of all those Easter eggs (!!!), Taylor was busy making money. Let's dig in.
Not so surprisingly, Taylor's studio albums—including Taylor Swift, Fearless, Speak Now, Red, 1989, Reputation, Lover, Folklore, Evermore, Midnights, The Tortured Poets Department, and now The Life of a Showgirl—have earned *tens of millions of dollars* worldwide. Per the Recording Industry Association of America, an organization that sounds like it knows what it's talking about, she has earned $137.5 million in digital singles and $51 million in album sales. Oh, and now seems like a good time to mention that Midnights sold more than 1 million copies in its FIRST. WEEK.
Some other fun facts for you?
And even though it cost her more than a pretty penny to buy her masters back (like, we're talking $360 million a lot), her net worth has only increased from the purchase, as she now has the power to license the original masters for film and TV.
By the end of 2023—and less than halfway through its scheduled 152-show run—the Eras Tour had nabbed the distinction of earning over $1 billion to become the highest-grossing concert tour...of all time.
And by the end of its run, Forbes reported that the tour generated an estimated $4.1 billion in revenue, with Tay personally earning an estimated $10 to $13 million per show. Excuse me while I go cry in broke.
Meanwhile, Taylor's Eras Tour concert film broke AMC records on its first day, bringing in a reported $26 million. It's since earned $100 million in advance global ticket sales, and Variety reports that Tay and her team have pocketed $60 million of that. In total, the movie earned $262 million at the box office. HER POWER!
Taylor wasn't able to tour for a few years due to the pandemic, but it's cool because she made enough on her Reputation Tour to last a lifetime. The tour grossed $266.1 million in domestic revenue, making it the highest-grossing tour in United States history at the time. Truly, what is life? No, seriously:
In case you want some details, when Taylor kicked off her tour in Phoenix in 2018, she set a new venue record for gross and attendance. THEN she hit up San Francisco and made a cool $14 million, before pocketing another $16.2 million in SoCal. Also, the entire thing was filmed by Netflix for an undisclosed sum rumored to be worth millions.
What did you make in 2015? Because Taylor Swift took home $250 million (mostly in ticket sales) thanks to her 1989 Tour—and she was the top-grossing tour artist of that year.
Taylor Swift doesn't really ~do~ social media sponcon, but she does have a history of working with brands, namely Keds, Diet Coke, Capital One, and Apple. These are private working relationships, so who knows exactly how much money she took home, but it was presumably a lot.
Not only does Taylor own an apartment in NYC, but she also owns the homes next door because why not? This epic real estate haul set her back a reported $50 million, but who wouldn't want to avoid annoying neighbors by throwing lots of money at the problem? Also in Tay's real estate portfolio: a $4 million check for a property she recently sold in Beverly Hills, a $2 million place in Nashville, plus that sweet vacation pad in Rhode Island where Tom Hiddleston once frolicked gleefully. (It's worth $17 million.)
Business Insider estimates that in total, her property is worth $81 million, while Bloomberg says it's closer to $110 million.
Back in August 2017, Forbes reported that Taylor was worth $280 million. Then in June 2023, the publication revealed that her net worth had increased to $740 million—up from $365 million in 2020. And now, as of August 2025, however, Tay cemented her status as the richest female musician with an estimated net worth of $1.6 billion.
The celeb is no doubt very much used to breaking records (and glass ceilings, for that matter), and told TIME during her December 2023 cover story that she hopes her success will inspire others to invest in women.
"What has existed since the dawn of time? A patriarchal society. What fuels a patriarchal society? Money, flow of revenue, the economy," she mused. "So actually, if we're going to look at this in the most cynical way possible, feminine ideas becoming lucrative means that more female art will get made. It's extremely heartening."
So yeah...TL;DR: TAYLOR IS A BILLIONAIRE AND AN ICON!
Please excuse me while I go weep with happiness for her and sadness for myself.
