Q&A: How to become a record producer?

Question by Tom: How to become a record producer?
Hi, im in high school now, and i am interested in becoming a record producer. Im not even totally sure what that means or what they do, so im asking here. Also, i assume i would go into Business courses or something, right? Another thing; the music industry is pretty bombed right now, and do you think it will get better in the next few years? This is just an option and i want to learn more about this profession.

they dont see any of the tour money
