"Ha, I wanted to be a mate matchmaker when I was younger - any matchmaking between people and other people is an inherently centralized profession, since it generates value quadratic in the number of people you know in sufficient detail, so it's inherently centralized, so a few leading practitioners can capture most of the trade's gains instead of it being distributed evenly among competitors, so half the matchmakers dream of becoming an rich famous mate matchmaker.  And the other half dream of matching... huh, you don't have a word that means 'employer or employee but just cooperating without a control asymmetry' which I guess makes sense for Earth.  But of course only one percent can be in the top one percent, and I didn't have much luck proving myself by setting up romances among the people I knew from matching them with books, even though that's relatively personality-revealing knowledge as matchmaking goes."
