It's not like they're doing 4M an album and doing $250M+ tours like 1D

Uh, no. A streaming equivalent sale earns pretty much the same amount of revenue as a pure sale, that's why it's called an equivalent
Read All in My Head's thread about SPS. And their album outsold Twice's releases. They're not 1D-level rich but they're still rich. If 5H are poor then I dread to think how poor Twice are considering they have to split their money nine ways

No it doesn't. Sales is often used to include streaming equivalents, which is obviously the case here. What you're thinking of is called "pure sales"

Their tour did well for a group in its second album... has Twice even toured?
