All businesses ultimately converge in real estate and finance. This is an unavoidable fate. Real estate is the smallest unit and foundation of production activities, with a price calculated in real terms. Volatile assets that have a real price and whose prices fluctuate frequently must generate interest or dividends. Rental fees for an office or store are typically sufficient for the business operator to pay the interest on the loan owed by the lessor, the real estate owner, to the bank, akin to the real estate owner holding a particular share of the lessee’s business.
