They say age is just a number, and for some, it's certainly the least that matters. Counting dollars instead of years, the world's highest-paid celebrities under 30, according to Forbes' annual list, include the likes of Jennifer Lawrence and Taylor Swift. Not that we're surprised, but before these A-listers even hit the big three-O, they're already certified members of the millionaire's club.

Below, meet 2015's highest paid celebrities under 30.

2015 Earnings: $80 million

How so shocking! But sarcasm aside (in case you didn’t notice), it’s no secret that Tay Sway’s 1989 album sold over 3.6 million copies. As if that alone isn’t enough, her 1989 World Tour also earned her about $4 million per city.

With a total of 74 shows played over the year, the band raked in at least seven figures at each stop.
