Why bother making startups when I can just invest in shares&crypto and make my usual 1-2% per year? Capitalism "breeds innovation" but most startups are really just "make toilet paper a subscription" or "buy from China/USA/Germany and resell". There are few startups based on actual scientific advancements.

Yes, I'm asking about investing while I'm broke

EDIT: 5% was an exaggeration
