Mrs. Billington, we're told, was paid 10,000 pounds for a season. How should we think of that? Well, the Bank of England has a great historical database, which tells us that per capita GDP in Great Britain was around 30 pounds at the time 3/ https://t.co/tbZ9dQm2mB — PolitiTweet.org

That was a bit over 350 times U.S. GDP per capita in that year. So to a first approximation Rihanna and Mr.s Billington actually earned about the same amount relative to their societal norms! 5/ https://t.co/Cm2Rx9gCsl — PolitiTweet.org
