In May 2025, she reclaimed the masters for her first six albums for a reported $360 million. The move allowed him to keep all future royalties, which significantly increased his net worth over the past year.
Swift’s financial rise was further accelerated by her October 2025 album, The Life of a Showgirl. The album made history by selling over four million copies in its first week. This debut is the biggest in music history. The massive commercial success of the project helped them cross the $2 billion mark just in time for the 2026 Forbes ranking.
