Bottom line for me. Having the "magical" ability to look at, understand, breakdown, decipher, teach, & play a piece of music perfectly on every instrument is great, but not as grand or valuable as you think. You named 2 writers & composers in your post. Would you still take this "magical" talent if you weren't also gonna be given any creativity or ability to compose original music of your own?
Just because you know & understand every nuance of grammar, writing, & punctuation, doesn't mean you can write an interesting novel.

Can't pull bytches by showing them you can play every instrument, but speaking like 30 different languages to her will get her wet automatically
That's literally the reason most nikkaz start playing instruments.
You still have yet to name anyone with this ability that is broke.
But understanding what good writing is definitely means you can.

Not saying you would be broke. You would always have a job as a teacher or hired hand performer. You could make a good living grinding and doing what you love to do. Doesn't mean you would ever be wealthy though. I just see being the only human to understand & speak every language with "high accuracy" has at least equal and greater value.
I still have yet to see you post any one with talent like what is described in OP that isn't rich or living incredibly wealthy.
On the other hand, there are parts of the world where speaking 5,6,7,8 languages is the norm and nikkas are broke.
Languages easily anyone who has traveled the world knows this. Also people starts to open up and embrace you regardless your race, ethnicity and nationality if you speak their language. As a Ghanaian speaking simple broken English had gotten me laid in America.

Yea because speaking multiple similar languages has minimal value vs speaking languages that are drastically different from each other.
Do you know any great musicians that aren't also artists or part of a famous band? What the OP described probably doesn't exist, but this is a fictional scenario. You don't think there are people that can play multiple instruments at a high level that aren't simply grinding as concert orchestra players or studio players for hire?
There are people, especially from developing countries, who can speak English, Spanish/French/Portuguese/Dutch/German, plus multiple local languages that are drastically different. Not sure where you heard otherwise. In fact, its common and those people are far from rich often.
Not sure why such a person wouldn't be able to be in a band or a stand a lone artist but 3 have been named in this thread alone then you have dudes like Trent Reznor and Hans Zimmer who make killings off OSTs.
A basic court interpreter with no degree makes $250 interpreting for few hours.And the poll is 32 and 11 for the languages. these nikkas really lost.
But shyt there is alot of money for masters of other languages working for the Government. My roommate knows Russian like a MF, trynna get his International Relations Degree and work for the Pentagon

Every single person you've named are creators.

Phillip Glass, Aphex, Zimmer have tons of music based on math and theory with no "raw creativity"
I'm still waiting on a list of these musical genius not making bank, breh.
