So, although if you keep spending you keep needing money, it seems like those royalties are really, really lucrative if all you need to do is maintain. I'd like to know how much they all get a year from catalogue royalties.

The three songwriters would get significantly more than Mick, so for Mick to be comfortable purely on catalog royalties, well, it's no wonder that Stevie is "financially stable" (i.e., no recession could put a dent in her fortune).
