Why would private equity not want high prices and a wait list? That's guaranteed future sales at high margin. Sounds pretty good to me...

That’s the downside of requiring infinite (in the sense of “never-ending”) growth, and not being content “just” with profit.

I'm moderately sure that there's a part of private equity that would be content with a steady profit (at the right price). It's just not the part that you usually hear about.

		The path to "get rich quick" is selling a lot of cheap junk for a high price. In order to make this work you need to constantly be on the lookout for a new scheme though as the money will run out on the old one fast. The get rich not quick as quick (and perhaps not quite as rich) it make a good quality product with consistent margins as you earn a reputation.
