Shakespeare for most of his life was a partner in a theatrical company and had a cut of the profit of the company. He helped the company make money by writing and acting in plays. He also got a share of the profits of two theatre buildings he had invested in. And as well he bought land and rented it out which made him good money.
One gets the feeling that Shakespeare, who had endured poverty in his youth, had a sharp feel for money. He made money out of acting, out of playwriting (not an easy thing to do), out of owning a share in a theatre and in an acting company, and from publishing poetry. He then took that money and loaned it out--we have records of him suing to recover bad loans.
He was not content to be an actor-for-wages. He invested in the theatrical company he worked with, then in the theatres they owned, and also in real estate both in London and Stratford. William learned a sense of business from his father and was always a good businessman. As it happened, his skills as an actor and writer made his business enterprises even more profitable.
