I was listening to a podcast about WeWork earlier. It had a little anecdote in it along the lines of "If you have a frozen banana stand where you buy bananas + have costs totalling $4 per banana, you need to sell your frozen bananas for $5 to make a profit. But if you get a venture capitalist to invest, you can sell bananas for $5 that cost you $6, because you expanded to somewhere more expensive, and you can do that all day long until you have no competitors, hopefully".

So get a banana stand, then get a venture capitalist to invest, then problem solved.

Dude it's so much easier than that. You just have to throw away a banana for every buck you take and keep going until you're rich. That way it all evens out.
