Also, while I don't know much about the subject, isn't the estimate of $10 profit per person extremely unrealistic?
yeah exactly. most profitable thing for most major touring artists is going to be merch sales. that's probably even still true for taylor, although likely less so since she owns most of her music rights these days. but the $10 profit is just such an absurd suggestion
Just being able to consistently sell out shows involves a massive marketing and management infrastructure that probably eats a large chunk of live show profits. It's such a dumb guy to think that if you're just good at something you'll be magically successful
not to mention the bizarre claim that they'd be able to sustain that for several decades. like i'm pretty sure the rolling stones don't have 10k paying audience members nightly.
also, just the idea that a person could physically survive touring that hard for that long is laughable. you'd literally die, if you did that.
And apparently, the audience will never get tired of this musician who never writes or records new music because they're too busy doing arena shows every single night for 27 years.
not even the taylor swift music collective even, since as you pointed out, the math doesn't math for even her, and also as you point out, she very much does not write her own music. she might write a majority of her own lyrics and maybe even a number of her own song skeletons, but production for taylor swift has been phoned in for a bit now. and even if it wasn't that's still people that are being paid to work on it, not her grinding at the studio in between eras tour stops.
