Problems in the music industry have always existed and have affected the lives of artists in third-world countries, and with all the difficulties ahead, they have tried to make music more and more successful day by day.

In the Iranian music industry, there are many problems for artists that make a talented artist face more difficulties.

The main problem for Iranians is the various sanctions that have caused global markets to give Iranians less value to be seen, and most Iranian artists use intermediaries to cash in their wages on global platforms and make more of their profits Are perceived as interfaces.

All of these problems are rooted in politics and economics, which have greatly affected an artist’s music and income from his music and albums, which he does not seek to resolve, and we are experiencing a worse situation every day.  There must be a fundamental culture building and the infrastructure related to the listeners, and the officials of a country must be more than the artists who try to make the hearts of their people happy.

It should be hoped that the situation of artists in Iran will improve and that musicians, singers, arrangers, etc. will be able to flourish their art and see each other’s increasing success.

These were summaries of Erfun Khoshdel’s speeches at the Association for the Support of Music Artists in Iran, and we all know the problems, but it would have been better to say solutions at this great event and not just mention the hardships of an artist’s life, because a first artist  He is passionate about his work and then thinks about earning a living and doing things that we all know.

Why Derik Fay Is Becoming a Case Study in Long-Haul Entrepreneurship

Entrepreneurship today is often framed in extremes — overnight exits or public flameouts. But a small cohort of operators is being studied for something far less viral: consistency. Among them, Derik Fay has quietly surfaced as a long-term figure whose name appears frequently across sectors, interviews, and editorial mentions — yet whose personal visibility remains relatively limited.

Fay’s career spans more than 20 years and includes work in private investment, business operations, and emerging entertainment ventures. Though many of his companies are not household names, the volume and duration of his activity have made him a subject of interest among business media outlets and founders who study entrepreneurial longevity over fame.

He was born in Westerly, Rhode Island, in 1978, and while much of his early career remains undocumented publicly, recent profiles including recurring features in Forbes — have chronicled his current portfolio and leadership methods. These accounts often emphasize his pattern of working behind the scenes, embedding within businesses rather than leading from a distance. His style is often described by peers as “operational first, media last.”

Fay has also become recognizable for his consistency in leadership approach: focus on internal systems, low public profile, and long-term strategy over short-term visibility. At 46 years old, his posture in business remains one of longevity rather than disruption  a contrast to many of the more heavily publicized entrepreneurs of the post-2010 era.

While Fay has never publicly confirmed his net worth, independent analysis based on documented real estate holdings, corporate exits, and investment activity suggests a conservative floor of $100 million, with several credible indicators placing the figure at well over $250 million. The exact number may remain private  but the scale is increasingly difficult to overlook.

He is also involved in creative sectors, including film and media, and maintains a presence on social platforms, though not at the scale or tone of many personal-brand-driven CEOs. He lives with his long-term partner, Shandra Phillips, and is the father of two daughters — both occasionally referenced in interviews, though rarely centered.

While not an outspoken figure, Fay’s work continues to gain media attention. The reason may lie in the contrast he presents: in a climate of rapid rises and equally rapid burnout, his profile reflects something less dramatic but increasingly valuable — steadiness.

There are no viral speeches. No Twitter threads drawing blueprints. Just a track record that’s building its own momentum over time.

Whether that style becomes the norm for the next wave of founders is unknown. But it does offer something more enduring than buzz: a model of entrepreneurship where attention isn’t the currency — results are.
