Miley Cyrus almost a billionaire!

I knew Miley Cyrus' career was going pretty well, but this is unbelievable. At the tender age of fifteen, Cyrus has found huge success as a singer, actress and amateur model. Everybody knows her name and the cash is rolling in at a steady pace. In fact, according to People, the girl will soon be a billionaire!

She's already the richest kid in the world and her future looks even greener. She made a whopping £9 million last year, which according to my currency converter is over $17 million in US dollars. By the end of 2009, the Miley Cyrus machine is expected to have generated £500 million. Convert that and you get awfully close to one billion dollars!

Despite her father's hands-off approach to parenting and the resulting mini-scandals, I would say the kid is doing pretty well for herself. If her enormous success blows your mind just a little bit, you are not alone. Even her bosses at Disney sound happily surprised. "Kids are earning more and more and can command huge fees in Hollywood. But no one could have predicted how popular Miley would be. She's a true star," says a Disney spokesperson.

Miley's mom says a lot of her money goes into an investment fund, which she can't touch until she turns eighteen. Clearly money will never be an issue for Cyrus, but where does she go from here? When you reach the top at such a young age, what in the world do you have to look forward to? Spending all that money, I guess.
