I'm not making the case for Frankenstein's Monster being an angel, just comparing Softbank to Frankstein is a poor comparison. We can get into the weeds of the book if you want, but I don't think that's going to shed any light on Wework or Softbank.

When the reanimated corpse of Wework starts murdering Softbanks friends and relatives, I will of course stand corrected.

Using your excerpt, I read it as the monster being Softbank. > " Son may turn out to be the Victor Frankenstein of the cheap-money era. He’s helped create a monster that could do him serious harm."

Son's creation (Softbank) is doing plenty harm by investing vast amounts of money in businesses which "have no discernible path to profitability"
