M: Now are the some of the richest kids in the world and the money they’re making. The current issue of People magazine features some very famous faces who are under 15, and cashed in on concert tours, movies, TV shows and more. Julie Dane is People’s senior editor. Julie, good morning!
W: Good morning.
M: So, when you looked at some of these kids, were you amazed at the money they’re making?
W: Yeah, I mean it’s nothing like when I was a kid, that’s for sure.
M: That’s right. Well, let’s get started with Miley Cyrus. I mean this girl is a machine.
W: She is in the industry and to herself. And she only has the biggest kids show on cable: she has this huge concert tour: she was taking home a million dollars a week. She just signed a 7-figure book deal and this year her merchandise sales for Hannah Montana are expected to hit a billion dollars.
M: A billion?
W: A billion with a "B"!
M: And she gets a percentage of that, right?
W: She does. She gets a percentage of it. I mean she’s really raking in it, but she does have her, you know, had on her shoulders and her mum says that most of the money is going into an investment fund that she won’t touch it until she’s 18.
M: Wow... and where is all that besides all that money, I mean, does she seem like she’s handling this stuff OK?
W: Er, she seems like an incredibly mature, grounded girl which is great to see.
M: Another one of her Disney stable mates, this is such a hot band, the Jones Brothers. I mean, the Disney basically resurrected them and now they’re just pulling in the dough.
W: They’re huge. They just signed a multimillion-dollar two-year-concert deal. They’re taking in a 12 million on this concert tour among the three of them. And, you know, they’re also super grounded and they have a good family around them. They give 10% to charity. So it’s a good story.
M: And then what cash do they have? What do they like?
W: They do spend money. They give their mum a really nice diamond watch, they buy new computers, and Nick, the youngest, he’s 15, has just shot up 1,500 dollars for a pair of shoes.
M: Yeah, let’s gonna say that they’re all kind of clothes horse.
W: Yeah, they’re definitely natty dressers.
M: Yeah, and when you look at all these young actors, what’s the common theme you see amongst them, the actors in these country-goers?
W: Well, these really successful ones, like Miley and Jones Brothers have really good families around them and they’re clearly not in this on their own. They have families to help them along and they seem to be totally normal kids.
M: Great, well, Julie Dane, thank you so much.
W: Thanks for having me.
