Dr Dre made $20 per second in 2014, which is silly

Rapper turned mogul is probably richer than you are

 

Dr. Dre Beats earnings per minute according to Sky Range and Forbes Photo:

Yes, here's another story about how poor you are and how ridiculously rich Dr. Dre is.

For all aspirational money obsessed sycophants out there, Sky Range have taken data from Forbes' list of the highest earning musicians and worked out how much money they make per second. One thinks they might have something better to do with their time.

Obviously Dr. Dre has more money than anyone ever, as constantly reported by the press, following the $3 billion sale of the knock off Beats brand to Apple. Dre then raked in $620 million, which boiled down to $19.66 a second, basically more money than you could burn, even if you had a flamethrower.

Beyoncé came in second (are you getting deja-vu yet), earning $3.65 per second, Justin Bieber came in third with $2.54 per second and Taylor Swift came in fourth with $2.03 per second.
