Creators and Performers

Another angle to yesterday's Taylor Swift post:

The marketplace rewards the performers, the rainmakers that separate people from their money. CEOs. Professional Athletes. Gladiators.

Scientists and poets are cool and desperately needed, but they don't get the big bucks. Ask most any painter or playwright.

Much better to be singer-songwriter than just songwriter.
