People Applaud Man For Paying His College Tuition After Selling Taylor Swift Tickets For $14K
Recently, a Taylor Swift fan went viral for claiming he sold fourth-row seats to the pop star’s ‘The Eras Tour’ show for $14,000.
Isaac Jarman, the American behind the viral TikTok, expressed his gratitude to the unnamed concertgoer who shelled out enough money to cover Jarman’s college fees.
“To whoever just bought my Taylor Swift tickets for FOURTEEN THOUSAND dollars, I love you. Thank you for literally paying for my college tuition,” he said on his TikTok, with Swift’s “Cruel Summer” blaring in the background.
He continued: “I hope you enjoy the show so much. I wish I could be there but also 14k is pretty nice too, idk.’

Of course, for Swift fans, hearing something like this might not be that shocking. After all, ticket prices for her fully booked performances at Inglewood’s SoFi Stadium scheduled for this month ranged from $49 to $449, assuming you acted fast enough to get your hands on them.
Currently, you can find first-night tickets on StubHub for approximately $800 to $11,000 per ticket.
Although some people were upset at the insanity of such prices, most congratulated the college student on his fortunate stroke of luck
The amount of money being spent, some people have a very unhealthy relationship with Taylor Swift and need to get some help.
Or some people just have too much money and should be taxed more.

I don’t think he cares at this point that you judge him.
Load More Replies...Taylor Swift doesn't set the ticket prices. Also, friends of mine got tickets and were surprised at how affordable they are. The resellers are killing the concert industry. It needs to be regulated so the resellers can't make the cash. I don't mean this kid, I mean Stub Hub and those types. Kudos to this kid for getting his tuition paid. Saves him from going broke paying off student loans down the line. Ticket prices are the reasons we don't see big name bands/artists anymore.
My younger sister recently shelled out $2,000 to go see Taylor Swift. That is INSANE. I get mad if I have to pay more than $30 to go see a band. For that amount of money, I feel like lil sis should have been given a chair on the stage and access to an open bar!!
Some folks seem to have more $ than sense, that said, how many other folks spend "obscene" amounts of money on things that a great deal of others would call frivolous? How many people, each year, pony up in excess of $70k for a pick up truck that will never see use other than parading around the fact that someone is silly enough to buy one? It's all relative.
Clearly the numbers shows that she isn't average at all
Load More Replies...I get it if you don't like Taylor Swift. But that doesn't mean you have to hate on people who do. A lot of people, including me, relate and are moved by her music. It's not some random obsession. I think 14k is obviously too much, but remember that she doesn't set the ticket prices. But I'm not going to judge someone for liking something, they can like it on a more personal level.
Taylor Swift isn't destroying anything re: the tickets. Try Ticketmaster + all those other sites.
This should be ilegal, scalping was ilegal before what happened. Taylor should be mad about this.
@ David....Yes, she should be....IF she's told about it and she really cares about the cost of her concert tickets.
Load More Replies...14k to idolize some corporate puppet in some short-lived "entertainment"?! These people are played like a marionette
Even for a singer that I'm a massive fan of (P!NK is the one), I wouldn't pay anywhere NEAR $14K for a ticket to see her. Whomever has that kind of money has no life and I feel sorry for that person. I hope the guy that sold the ticket didn't spend that much money.
"Whomever has that kind of money has no life ..." Whoever has that kind of money probably has a very enjoyable life.

Don’t know why you were down voted but it’s true! In the 80’s it was highly illegal to sell over face value.
Load More Replies...yeah! people shouldn't be able to do fun things AND go to school at the same time!!!!!!1!!
