    All brands and businesses are trying to make money

    But only publicly traded ones will trade the brand recognition they’ve built for short term profits…

    Investors care about quarterly growth, which literally cannot keep constantly increasing.

    A private company could have a flat dollar goal for yearly profit. And not give a shit if that number goes up 100k a year at the detriment to long term profits

    I thought that didn’t need explaining, but I can admit when I’m wrong.
