Non profit

Reflecting on the idea that performing arts were never profitable: This is basically true of several, if not many, classical and romantic period composers. Take Vivaldi, Mozart, or even Stephen Foster. Brilliant as they were, and ahead of their times, they died as paupers. 99.159.193.207 (talk) 18:31, 25 October 2014 (UTC)
