Because blacks are naturally good with money. Better than Jews even.

syphilis treatment was expensive back then, user. Maybe the disease ravaged his mind too much for him to do well with his money. He did spend a lot on producing his compositions too from what I remember. I’m not a big ragtime fan either, too degenerate.

True, if you die with savings you'll have wasted it.

most musicians in all of history died poor because they are low value people who are bad with money

In 1914, Joplin and Lottie self-published his "Magnetic Rag" as the Scott Joplin Music Company, which he had formed the previous December. Biographer Vera Brodsky Lawrence speculates that Joplin was aware of his advancing deterioration due to syphilis and was "consciously racing against time." In her sleeve notes on the 1992 Deutsche Grammophon release of Treemonisha she notes that he "plunged feverishly into the task of orchestrating his opera, day and night, with his friend Sam Patterson standing by to copy out the parts, page by page, as each page of the full score was completed."
By 1916, Joplin was suffering from tertiary syphilis, but more specifically it likely was neurosyphilis. In January 1917, he was admitted to Manhattan State Hospital, a mental institution.[54] He died there on April 1 of syphilitic dementia at the age of 48 and was buried in a pauper's grave that remained unmarked for 57 years. His grave at St. Michael's Cemetery in East Elmhurst was finally given a marker in 1974, the year The Sting, which showcased his music, won for Best Picture at the Oscars.

Mozart died penniless. It’s more that true artists often get fucked than that it’s all about racism.
