This is a nice SoHo loft! Plus she owns a house in Nashville?
Can we all speculate about Vanessa's finances... please? So she was the sole songwriter on "A Thousand Miles" which was an international hit and has been licensed in movies, teevee, commercials, etc... so she is pretty well set mainly from that?

1. Those bangs... 2. A Thousand Miles alone has allowed her to finance the recording of at least one of her independent album's. I feel like it was Rabbits, but not 100% sure. She then needed to find someone to distribute said album - which she did, Dine Alone Records. I would assume the success of ATM still let's her live comfortably.
ETA: She likely made from songwriting alone, about a dime from each single sale of ATM - not sure the percentage back in the early 2000's just going off of what it is now (0.09ish). For streaming, I think she would make 0.005 per stream, so half a penny. However, since she is generally the sole writer, at least of her more popular songs, she more than likely is doing fine financially.

I really don't like these layered vocals she's been doing for so long. I used to like her voice, as simple and imperfect as it was. It's all just so sterile and boring, I can't get into any song from her for the past 5 years...

It's pretty cool that the success of ATM allows her to continue to enjoy a career as a creative person + live comfortably + she gets to live with some degree of privacy.

She's also a dear friend to Stevie Nicks. We can all use a godmother like Stephanie Lynn.

I've been listening to her first two albums, and forgot how much I adored how moody her work can be. "Sway", "Rinse", and "She Floats" are stunning. Feeling particularly nostalgic, especially realizing "Be Not Nobody" was released 19 years ago tomorrow.
