I agree with Deggen. Companies are a social fiction, an abstract invention, just like money, that allows for human cooperation and risk taking on scales never before possible.
Worth looking into the history of corporations and how they helped society develop tremendously. It's not just a middleman. It's very very important.
discussion was not about whether companies as a legal entity make sense or not (btw: they do make sense)
question was if there is any way for investors to directly invest into persons, too
While most just talk, @255 did hint that he has a solution soon.

Investing directly in apps, lets say participating a certain % of an "app's income" is a nice thought, too. I guess most apps would be offered by a company in the end, but not all.
Let us work through this as an example real quick.
Have not looked into Baemail yet, but I assume you profit from all the interaction in Baemail.
So lets say there is a "main Baemail" BSV wallet, where your profit goes.
Would you take money and in exchange give the investor a certain % of all income from
from that "main Baemail wallet" for a certain time? (all negotiable of course, question of details)
That would be interesting. Investors help you to scale, you have no risk taking the money other than let them participate from the income
Classic investing
Or rather hinting might be more a market test. Gauge interest before continuing perhaps. Guide language to market.
When you called them a “useless middle man for me as an investor” I would say the exact opposite has proven to be the case over time.
I would want both options to be available with a good, preferebly Bitcoin driven technical solution: investing in companies and investing in persons directly and see where it takes me.
Neither.
Show us the future then, we need it
