I have a narrower interpretation of the word "capitalist": a person who invests money into an enterprise where others do the majority of the real work. That is, a mostly passive form of income generation.
By "real work" I mean all activity that creates tangible value. Managing rarely adds value and in some cases destroys the value produced by others. In its most benign form, managing is a form of assisting communication and possibly actually fostering a motivated workforce.
