Executive Summary
Money is Harry Potter. It can change anything into anything else. I use money to convert words into housing and clothes for my children.

Pension funds convert thrift into infrastructure, and into manufacturing, and – somewhere in a long chain of venturesome transformation – into R&D that might itself eventually be transformed into drugs.
