I keep thinking of General Motors. They somehow lost the narrative when they made more money financing loans for cars than actually making cars. Ads, engagement, loot boxes, freemium upsells, pyramid schemes, fintech, issuing debt... Smart money takes their profits. Retail investors are lucky to get some cheddar. Throngs of customers saddled with debt. Lather, rinse, repeat.
