She has more money than she can spend in her lifetime. If she quit singing today it wouldn't be downhill for her.

So I think you'd be fine without the talent.

Yeah but waking up as a proficient multi-instrumentalist, singer, and songwriter would be part of the fun, I imagine.

True, but I'd just take the billion dollars and live with the solace that I didn't have the talent of Taylor Swift.

I guess I mean that in this thought experiment it's about waking up as Taylor Swift, not as some random billionaire. Like waking up as Elon Musk seems like it would be a lot more boring than waking up as a talented musician.

True.

In that case, I would use my talents to switch to Funk.

The last time the talents of Taylor Swift were directed toward funk it didn't go so well.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

Well she countrified it. I can see why.

If you're going to do Earth, Wind and Fire, you gotta put some stank on it!
