Record labels usually fuck over wannabe stars with bad contracts. Even the bigger names in the business don't get a big share because they can't just run their real own label (and I'm not talking about pseudo labels that are distributed and promoted by the same big labels again) and have the same success, no matter how famous you are.
The big mainstream sellers usually can live good off their few cents per CD and especially concerts but those who started the big lifestyle, are taken advantage of, usually spend most of their money to save on taxes because someone told them to do that and if no fresh money comes in they're fucked.
