Rich people could look for small business owners who would like to expand their businesses. Once they find businesses in need of money, they could then give the businesses owners the money they need to expand their businesses. Another option would be to seek out people who want to start businesses, but do not have the money. If it can be proven that the business idea has a chance to succeed, rich people could give the aspiring businesses owners the money needed to start their businesses.
