How Hard can Losing Money even Be?

“So I get paid ten times more if the company loses money, and only one percent of the profit if it succeeds? That’s a no-brainer. Of course I’m going to run the company straight into the ground!”

Benny burst into laughter.

Benny shouted in excitement.

Benny was absolutely thrilled.

After all, in his position, who wouldn’t be?

Being send back 20 years into the past and was reborn with a system that pays him the more he loses than when he makes a profit.

What was easier? Building a company that made money, or destroying one until it bled losses?

Well, what if…

“Sir Benny! The city plans to build new roads through X Village! The value of the land you bought has skyrocketed!”

“Sir Benny! The gaming company you invested in just released XYZ! It’s become a massive hit! The players are even praising you online, saying you’re the first owner smart enough not to ruin the developers’ vision!”

“Sir Benny—!”

“Sir Benny!”

“Sir Benny!!”

…

Well, that “what if” quickly became reality.

And Benny could only stare blankly at the system screen as the company funds surged upward at terrifying speed… while his personal wealth remained almost completely stagnant.

“…Where did it all go wrong?”
