By the early 1720s Telemann’s second marriage had apparently deteriorated, for a Hamburg marionette play of 1724, intended to satirize Telemann, Brockes and Weichmann, alluded to Maria Catharina’s affair with a Swedish military officer.
Soon after this, rumours spread about her large gambling debts, which eventually amounted to the considerable sum of 4400 Reichsthaler (easily exceeding Telemann’s annual income from all sources).
In repaying these debts, Telemann was assisted by a collection taken up among his friends in Hamburg.

 The House of Rothschild
Just what such a share meant can be seen from one of the most important documents to have been found in the recently opened Moscow "trophy" archive: the first known balance sheet of Mayer Amschel Rothschild's firm, dating back over 200 years to the summer of 1797.
The total assets of the firm at this stage were given as 471,221 Reichsthaler or 843,485 gulden, the total liabilities as 734,981 gulden, leaving 108,504 gulden (around 10,000 [pounds sterling]) as--in Mayer Amschel's own words--"the balance of my capital, praise God" ("Saldo meines Vermogens, Gott lob").
This remarkable document repays close scrutiny, for it reveals that Mayer Amschel was already far more of an international merchant banker than has previously been realised.

 Cantata BWV 106 - Discussions - Part 3
In Köthen Bach could rely upon a steady monthly income no matter what, but in Leipzig his income was dependent upon the vacillations caused not only by a wavering death rate, but also by the sociological change brought about by the secularized funeral, many of them not needing Bach's services.
According to Bach's own estimate of his earnings, an estimate that may be lower than it really was, Bach earned 700 Reichsthaler a year (after deducting the 50 Reichsthaler that he had to pay someone to fulfill his teaching duties.) This would correspond approximately to earning 42,000 Euro a year or 3,500 Euro a month.
If the deceased had a church funeral, usually reserved for important and/or wealthy person, the church funeral service would include having the coffin with the deceased in the church for a special funeral service held during the week.
