Taylor Swift is making “serious” money as a day-trader

Not only is Taylor Swift on the top of the pile of the music industry in terms of sales of her new album RED, she’s also making money as a day-trader.

She shared that she started trading stocks as a way to get close to her dad Scott (her great-grandfather, and grandfather were also stockbrokers):

“My dad is so passionate about what he does, like in the way I’m passionate about music. He’s so gung-ho for his job, and I saw how happy it make him. This is a way of bonding with him.”

A friend told Star that this is a profitable hobby for Taylor (and she definitely has plenty of cash to play with) “She started doing it to pass time, but she’s made some serious money.”

So great, Taylor Swift now has even MORE money than the rest of us.
