For comparison, Swift earned way more than the $1.6 Billion that was fetched at Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen’s auction last year by selling stunning pieces of art from some of the modern Van Gogh such as George Seurat and Gustav Klimt. Her popular and ongoing Eras Tour has played a big hand in boosting her revenue by leaps and bounds.
