Investor

An investor is someone who puts money into good ideas so they can grow. On a regular day, they read about new businesses, look at charts on a computer screen, and talk with people who have a plan. For example, a baker might want to buy a bigger oven to make more bread, and an investor listens, asks questions, and decides whether to help pay for it.

When an investor helps, the baker can bake more loaves, hire a helper, and feed more neighbors each morning. The same goes for a new playground company, a small farm, or a team making better bicycles. Investors help people turn a plan on paper into something real that others can use and enjoy.
