I don't know a thing about TSwiftie but what kind of wealth bracket is her family meant to have? Are we talking about those Old Money family types where they're so rich is mind-boggling, or were her parents just comfortably well off?

People like to say they were mind-bogglingly rich but they really weren't. They were very comfortably well off but not old money types. Her dad was a stock broker, eventually started his own company.

Due to my job, I know a lot of people like that, and yeah, they're comfortable, but they're not rolling in the riches. It's precarious, when you're starting a company of your own. Bills matter. And a lot of businesses don't make it. There's tons of uncertainty.

Obviously, it worked out for them. But when Taylor was growing up? They weren't filthy, careless rich.

I mean they weren't billionaires but they owned multiple houses/properties and were easily able to spend over $1 million in total on setting up her career in the days before she hit it big, which I would classify as rather above the level of simply "comfortably well off."

None of this is accurate, but ok.

DA but by her own account yes they had a vacation home and before she was a teen they got a second one. Her dad was in an executive position at Merrill Lynch in 1985 and his annual salary would have been between $500k and $750k.

She was born to millionaires at a time when the average American median income was less than $30,000. Which was also less than the cost of a ten year old car with 75k miles on it goes for today.

You got a source on her fam being millionaires when she was born? Everything I've seen about her has supported AYRT's assertion that they were well-off but not wealthy.

Very well off - not billionaire level but wealthy New Yorker in finance level.

Her dad is third generation banker, possibly old money and her maternal grandfather was a doctor.

Annoying baby sister to an older sister struck with the parentification stick early, major "oh my god, I have to take care of this loser" vibes. Made her a great mum, though.
