Agree with him 100%. Unfortunately, now and as pretty much has always been the case, people who are generous and honest consistently get shafted by those who are avaricious and duplicitous. The only way to have any chance is to get other nasty fucks working to protect your own interests; a lesson learned too late by many musicians.
