It pays to be Britney Spears' co-conservator, because a judge has just signed off Andrew Wallett to be paid nearly $500,000 in 2014, Breaking Celebrity News has exclusively learned.

The pop star, 32, has been under a conservatorship since 2008, after several very public breakdowns.

According the court order "for 2014 in the amount of $426,000 to be paid Mr. Wallett. The proposed 2014 compensation shall be paid monthly, in the amount of $35,500, payable on the first day of each and every month, to commence on January 1, 2014."
