Would You Insure Your Favorite Rockstar?

Here’s a wild money move: Janis Joplin’s manager took out a life insurance policy on her, cashing in $112K after her tragic passing.

Lesson: Sometimes, the people behind the scenes are hedging their bets just like Wall Street. #Business #MusicBiz #MoneyMoves
