He is making a living...just never know how much those videos cost him personally to make and how much owing to the label for the album?? How much of his income from touring dollars will go to debt incurred for the Trespassing album?
" The costs of breaking an artist in a major market remain substantial at up to US$1.4 million. The cost typically breaks down as payment of an advance (US$200,000), recording costs (US$200,000-300,000), video production costs (US$50,000-300,000), tour support (US$100,000) and marketing and promotional costs (US$200,000-500,000)."

As of last week, the estimated worldwide total sales for TSP stands at 305,000 copies sold, per Media Traffic, I would say that is sufficient enough to cover the TSP project expenses, and keep in mind this is only one of many revenue sources for RCA and Adam. Here is an article from www.rollingstone.com/music/news/t....dustry-20111025 entitled "The New Economics of the Music Industry" might also interest you.
Every expense comes out of the TSP project, not Adam's own personal bank account; and unless he had a 360 deal with RCA, most likely RCA gets no dibs on his touring income either.  |

If I remember correctly, Adam doesn't have 360deal with RCA which I'm really happy right now. Just look at his tour dates in 2013? And we will see more dates ;D internationally and in the US. |

No, he doesn't; he mentioned it when being asked one time. 
But, there might be some Idol contract stipulations when it comes to touring which I've only heard but never been able to confirm. |

I can't resist commenting on this latest swirl of rumors. We learn that Adam's house is on the market, and some people think they're seeing unhappiness in recent pics of Adam and Sauli, and all of a sudden, this is supposed to be proof that some great catastrophe is about to take place.
It's all speculation, people. There could be all kinds of reason Adam chose not to renew his lease. Could be his landlords really jacked up the rent, or maybe the home's owners decided to live there themselves or rent the place to friends. Or maybe Adam's ready to invest in property himself. Or the guys want to choose a new place together. (Adam picked out his current house by himself.) Whatever. We won't know for sure what's behind the move unless Adam chooses to tell us.
And I'm not seeing evidence of problems between the boys. Who missed the happy, proud grin on Adam's face today when Wendy talked about him and Sauli being together for two years? And would Sauli be saying "life is smiling" if he wasn't excited about his siippa's homecoming?
Adam doesn't fear changes in his life, he embraces them. So what makes so many of us start angsting when something changes for him? I think it's just a vocal minority who angst. I prefer to think the majority spend most of their time exulting in all the nice, shiny things we in this fandom get. I know which group I belong to, lol! Oooooo, pretty pictures! Adam committing charmicide three times in one day! Divas this weekend! Who has time for angst? |

Me too! Trespassing. But what Whitney or Donna song would be good, solo or in a duet? Adam said once which his favourite Whitney song was, but I can't remember it. They are focusing on their disco tracks. I love 'My love is your love' by Whitney or , even better, it'd be cool if he did Donna's 'I feel love' - he could kill it vocally. Adam's favorite WHitney song was Run To You... I remembered because I have to search for it as soon as he mentioned it :D |
