Whenever someone questions her very few accomplishments, you always bring up money. Is being rich her biggest accomplishment?
I mean, you're saying it yourself. She has less "accomplishments" than everyone but has still made more money than them.
That's winning. Pop stars don't exist for accomplishments, they exist as a brand to make money. At the end of the day, everything we discuss on here is being done to make money.

But her money doesn't come from the accomplishments, it comes from selling crap and endorsing crap. So it is meaningless. There are tons of people who have made even more money by doing that and I don't see anyone stanning for them.

How does her money not come from her accomplishments?
She wouldn't be tapped to sell or endorse things if she wasn't an accomplished performer. Her brand as a performer and celebrity is the reason she's so sought after to sell and endorse things. You're making a completely illogical distinction.

They exist to make/release music too. Whitney died broke yet she'll always be remembered as one of the biggest voices of all time. Shouldn't that matter more at the end of the day? All of them are millionaires anyway, like who cares.

This is ATRL. We discuss pop and chart music.
And Bey now has the most acclaimed album of any pop girl not named Madonna and has headlined the Super Bowl, so she's doing just fine on the music and legacy front.
I feel like I could write a book of all these roundabout ways you guys try to find to make Bey's career seem unimpressive

They're hardly discussing music here, they discuss sales all the time.
Discussing money is hardly any more pointless than discussing sales, which're basically to generate money
Unless you wanna say Flo Rida, Ke$ha, Pitbull and Katy Perry will be remembered too
Emeli Sandé her last net worth was clocked at $8m, but I'd be interested to see how much that's grown by.
~4m ablums sold WW, songwriting credits on every single track, numerous WW collabs with songwriting credits on each, songwriting royalties from ablums like Crotch on Fire, PISSM, Unapologetic...

Because like you said yourself, her accomplishments are nothing special compared to her peers. There are many other contemporary artists who are far more successful. The empire she built is a different venture that has little to do with her career as an artist. So while it made her richer than other singers, she's not "winning" in the field that we're discussing here every day, which is music.
