Or.... how a non musician collects royalties on hundreds of songs he didn't write. If this doesn't make you mad...... There's no upfront money..... Run! https://youtu.be/zk872ERRVxA

The gatekeepers have always exploited the artists.
So many one-hit-wonders of the past never made a penny on their hit records. Out of their royalties, the labels took inflated recording, distribution, and promotional costs. They assigned 'ghost writers' to share the writing royalties that never wrote a note or lyric, and the demanded the publishing rights as well.
Gallery owners take over half the price a painting sells for.
The theater makes a mint, while the ballet troupe makes so little they can't hire real musicians but go with a recording.
It's because artists love what they do, and generally don't have a lot of business sense. Business people love what they do and they know as much about business theory as the best musicians know about music theory.
But, I love what I do and wouldn't be as happy as the non-musician business person.
How about you?

Pat Donahue wrote a parody to Would You Like To Swing on a Star, called Would You Like to Play the Guitar. One line about a manager was "because he's good at business and he knows your not". Sums it up.

Hopefully the bono fide certificate includes a shiny gold seal. Ya' can't prove you're the best if the certificate doesn't have the gold seal.
