The "Eras" tour of Taylor Swift can be considered as the most profitable concert tour in US history with an estimated earnings of $4.1 billion.
Far more than just money in her pocket, this could be a big boon to the American economy. Traveling and performing in theaters, it has certainly paid off grandly to take her show on the road.
Peter Cohan, a professor of MBA students from Babson College in Massachusetts, used his analytical prowess to come up with some extraordinary figures for The Washington Post.
According to him, the total value of the windfall to be received by singer-songwriter, Taylor Swift amounts to billions of dollars.
Believe it or not, the "Anti-Hero" singer's portion of the profits is estimated to be worth more than the total annual economic output of 42 countries. An unbelievable $4.1 billion profit can give each American about $17.
It is no secret that Taylor's "Eras" tour has been a success for both its performers and the cities in which it stopped.
With her ticket sales and highly-desired merch, the Grammy award-winning singer-songwriter has made great gains from this tour.
In addition to her financial benefit, reports state that hotels generated some $208 million on nights where concerts took place; however, the impact is likely even greater as many fans tend to stay an extra day.
An enormous economic benefit comes along with Taylor's concerts.

Furthermore, every truck driver who had the responsibility of transporting equipment around the nation was given an additional $100,000.
Taylor's "Eras Tour" concert film is a hit and it's set to make her even more money; presales alone have already reached an impressive $100 million from all over world. It has just recently been released in theaters and looks likely to get sweeter for Taylor yet.
