that may be the old fashioned way to make money per se: loan somebody money
so they can enter a market with an unstoppable advantage, rape the
competition, take the profits, leave emotional scars on everybody in the
field who's halfway interesting and nice and creative  ...
(thus seriously annoying people who were holding their own destructive
capabilities in abeyance in the interest of a common-wealth, and so forth
...
so yes, perhaps hatred is among the possibilities for an intelligent
response, though soon eliminated by those who bother to think much, or at
all...)

however, if you mean, "make something of value", that people who are not
all callous and nasty will appreciate and enjoy "and charge a fair price
for it" which still happens more than most pundits will admit...well then...
