Right! It’s clear to me now that it’s often just describing a poor-man’s capitalist/entrepreneur… In either case, wage labor is for suckers; hustlers, like owners of capital, wager their money (and time) for the chance at a major return on investment… It’s owning the means of production*, but for people that don’t wear a power suit.
*ETA: but like lots of traditional capitalists, in reality a they’re probably just a merchant/marketer/re-seller who thinks they’re doing something creative
