If you liked this article, check out the Joe Rogan podcast with Jewel[1]. She talks a lot about her rise to stardom and how she was able to maintain creative freedom with good financial decisions. This is far from a happy ending though. Jewel is an incredibly fascinating person. I highly recommend checking this one out.

I wish I had the time to invest in watching / listening to a 3 hour interview… I wish there was a highlights version or something that was maybe 45 minutes at most.

Skip 30 minutes in and listen to it sped up, and you should experience enough of it in 45 minutes.

Here’s a 15 min clip about her record deal [1]. TL;DR: She didn’t take a big advance even though she was broke and ended up making a lot more money from residuals.

Things get really interesting when she talks about how her mom stole all her money and now she’s basically starting over (in the original link).

I sat through a 3 hour interview with Carmack. Guy is not a bad host, though I've listened to many, many Carmack speeches so I might be biased.
