I work for you." Along with Heller, Wright invested much of his money into Ruthless Records. I am responsible for my expenses and you're responsible for yours. That's industry standard for a manager of my caliber.
According to Heller, he told Wright, "Every dollar comes into Ruthless, I take twenty cents. Wright suggested a half-ownership company, but it was later decided that Wright would get eighty percent of the company's income and Heller would only get twenty percent.
