compounders
Those who blend
Compounders are people or things that compound—that combine elements or make something worse.
In finance, compounders are investments that grow through compound interest, reinvesting returns to generate accelerating gains: The best compounders double every few years.
In pharmacy, compounders prepare customized medications by mixing ingredients.
Someone who compounds a problem makes it worse: Serial compounders of their own misfortune.
