Is it though? Capital build a better future. It's more forward thinking than just working.

For instance, I want my children to forgo working and build capital for their future by getting an education. The foregone income would pay back more in the long run.

I wouldn't consider an education to be capital. It produces no value without you doing work, whereas capital produces value through others' work.
