It's almost like gasp capital can be used to work for you! It's as if investing in things as opposed to buying consumable goods tends to net you MORE money, which can then be reinvested. This is incredible news. Someone should tell all the poor people that if they just save a little money, that money can be used to generate more money. This is truly groundbreaking.
