Also, while I don't know much about the subject, isn't the estimate of $10 profit per person extremely unrealistic?

    Playing 10,000 shows over the course of 50 years would be one show every 1.825 days. You'd basically have to get extremely famous very early on and do a lifetime residency in Vegas.

      And Vegas is very much a place where show trends come and go. You'd have to spend pretty much every waking hour not preparing or doing a show seeing what's popular and what's up and coming, and also be right every time, so you can sustain 10,000 people every show.

      Dang I was just about to post something similar.

      Instead: I'll say that the comment ironically shows how absurd it is. A show every 2 days, to 10k people (good luck maintaining that average), for an entire lifetime. No breaks.

      Or consider giving someone $1m a year. The oldest people who lived are around 120 and would "only" have 1/10th of a billion.
