When did “investor” become synonymous with “extractors”?

Extracting wealth by using wealth to create more wealth.

Some people will say that investors have always been 100% exclusively interested in “return on investment” but I’m skeptical 🤔

@heycaseywattsup Ever read Netscape’s founding story? They raided the university team building Mosaic and stole its ideas wholesale. They extracted all value with hype then discarded it. A few engineers rescued the engine and made it into Firefox. And that was the start of the commercial Web. It didn’t get better.
