I agree to an extent, although Deacon gets writing royalties which Mick doesn’t. They don’t make as much of a difference in the age of streaming, but they used to. Also Queen is way more of a slick commercial enterprise like FM so suspect it’s more lucrative. I get the impression that in recent decades Mick “only” has touring income and then yes he fritters it away on divorces and bad business decisions.
