TODAY’s key word is Income
Income 收入，收益
A person's income is the money that they earn or receive。
The cost of living is now so high that you need to earn a good income just to keep your head above water.
现在生活费用太高了,你需要有相当的收入才能勉强维持生活。
To keep your head above water 避免欠债。
这里To keep your head above water is a colorful expression that means staying out of debt.
言归正传，今天我们要说的这个income 收入，是乡村歌曲小天后 Taylor swift 的收入。
这位小天后不光是前男友多，钱也是多的不要不要的。你猜，她每年的收入有多少呢？
Taylor Swift has been named the highest-paid musician in the world after reportedly earning more than one million dollars a day for the duration of 2015。
一天一百万美元！我需要找个角落静一静，重新思考人生。
Forbes magazine（福布斯） has claimed she could hit full-blown billionaire（亿万富翁） status well before her 30th birthday and ultimately（最后） become one of the world’s wealthiest women.
人美，歌甜，男友多，还不缺钱，弱弱的问一下，她是怎么办到的？总结一下，主要是一下几点原因。
1.专辑大卖。
The stunning 1 star released her fifth studio album in October last year and the hugely-successful record sold 1.287 million in its first week。
2. 工作认真
Last year, we saw her storm the globe performing 85 jam-packed dates, in North America, Asia, Europe and Oceania.
一年85场演唱会，遍及地球各个角落, 光门票收入就够吃一年青岛大虾了。
3.理财能手。
Her father Scott is a wealth management adviser 2, and mother Andrea is a former mutual 3 fund executive. 请问你家还缺孩子吗？
除此以外，她和雅顿合作，发售了三款自己的香水，代言健怡可乐，代言keds 的鞋。那代言费是哗哗的进账。
4.最后，也是非常非常重要的一点---前男友们。
Taylor Swift的前男友们站在一起那才是偶像天团。(具体都有谁，请问度娘)分一次手，送一首歌，这首歌还能赚好多钱。
It is really a good deal.
那这些歌里到底唱了点什么呢？还是学好英语，才能听懂啊。大家一起努力 fighting （结尾再来两句她的歌？）
adj.极好的；使人晕倒的
