The Lie That's Been Holding Artists Back for Centuries
Here's a fact that will upend everything you thought you knew about creative genius: Michelangelo died worth roughly $47 million in today's money. Not starving in a garret. Not penniless and unappreciated. Wealthy. The man we've mythologized as the quintessential tortured artist was actually a shrewd businessman who invested wisely and lived comfortably. This discovery, made by Professor Rab Hatfield while examining bank records, shatters the foundational myth of creative life-that suffering and poverty are prerequisites for great art. The "Starving Artist" narrative, popularized by Henri Murger's 19th-century romanticization of bohemian poverty, has misled generations into believing that creativity and financial stability are somehow incompatible. This false choice has cost countless talented people their dreams. The truth is simpler and more liberating: real artists don't starve. They build sustainable careers without compromising their vision, and the path forward requires rejecting outdated myths in favor of practical principles that distinguish those who thrive from those who merely survive.
