So Bighit got around $500 million of profit and BTS as a group has like 50% share of the profits. Let's consider $ 100 million was from TXT and other artists (the number might be even more less), $ 400 million profits were from BTS. So BTS as a group gets around $200 million and when you share that among 7 ppl, it is around $ 28.5 million on average. And these numbers don't count concert tickets. I know my numbers might be wrong but...

Now my question to Forbes is, DOES EACH MEMBER STILL HAVE $8 MILLION NET WORTH?
