People make fun of Enya's music but it's really well produced and exactly what she likes to make. What a great life, making art you love, really well, never touring, and living with your cats in a castle
Exactly - what I'm trying to say is that if I was dying and I decided that even though I'd never particularly been into, say, Enya before but that now I really, really was into Enya and that in fact, I thought Enya was great and that Enya died for our sins and I wanted an Enya themed funeral with pictures of Enya and lots and lots of mentions of Enya, then I think it would be a bit bloody rich for my sister to ban all mention of Enya from my funeral. Yeah?
Get over yourself man, just let people be happy. It's okay to have nice things, you don't have to feel guilty about it unless you did something wrong to get it.
Well some would argue that accumulating this much wealth is the wrongdoing in this story.
With her wealth she easily belongs to the top 0.1 % wealthiest people in the us. I think this amount of wealth surpassed the "It's okay to have nice things" phase and quickly got to the "You should take some responsibility with your inexplicable wealth!"
You don't get to live in a 100 million dollars castle while others struggle to pay rent just by doing good things. The music industry is just as rigged as hollywood. Thanks to majors and all these salesmen who make millions there's plenty of real and skilled musicians who don't get half of the recognition they deserve. It's these greedy souls that should get over themself and just let people be happy: once you are a millionare you don't really have to keep squeezing money out of the industry with your albums just so that you can buy a whole fucking castle for yourself...
