Well, with a lot of professions, you can
- identify the need for more practitioners in the profession
- hire qualified people previously not budgeted for (throw money at)
- develop people with partial qualifications (throw money at)
- put educational programs in place (throw money at)
Money is meant to be thrown at things. Fiat currencies help us not barter goats for eggs on a daily basis.
What better way to make something happen than throwing money at it?
