Think They’re Fools? They’re The Guys Laughing All The Way To The Bank!

Pop duo Jedward raked in a whopping €400,000 last year following the establishment of their own brand.

The words ‘insufficient funds’ is never good, especially when displayed on an ATM machine after you’ve just popped out of the pub to pay for your round.

However, Jedward will never have to experience the money horrors of the average 21-year-old (or Her.ie girl) as they raked in over €400,000 last year.

The pair established their firm, Planet Jedward Ltd in 2010 and have since been rolling in money, maybe literally.

The twins lucrative career kicked off on X Factor where they met their current manager Louis Walsh.

The company’s main income has been the success of the twins’ single Lipstick in 2011 and also their appearance on Celebrity Big Brother, which generated thousands for the duo.

The twins unveiled their wax models at the National Wax Museum earlier this week

John and Edward won’t be short of a few bob this Christmas either as the two will earn a whopping €150,000 for 36 performances of their pantomime, Jedward and the Magic Lamp this Christmas.

The brothers are also planning to launch their own musical next year in which they will play themselves and the take home pay is believed to be €200,000.

We spend an afternoon laughing at Jedward’s awful models and we chuckle at their ridiculous attire and their cringe worthy songs but they’re certainly not fools.

The real fool, in fact, is the girl who is fighting with the ATM machine on a Friday evening and not the twins who have raked in 16 times the average person’s annual salary in one year!
