Etymology

money + lord

Noun

moneylord (plural moneylords)

  1. someone who lends money in exchange for interest
    • 2014, Max Beer, An Inquiry into Physiocracy (Routledge Revivals), Routledge (→ISBN)
      The owner of land and the owner of money let or lent their respective instruments of production and commerce to farmers and merchants, who then surrendered a part of their profits or gains to the landlord and moneylord. The payment to the former was called rent, the payment to the other was called interest.
    • 1928, The Equitist Plan: Being the First Nine Chapters of The Ideal Country and how to Get There
      Human beings never have the power to command satisfactions from each other except in exchange for equivalent satisfactions produced by them, or by the exercise of tribute-compelling power, which has its ultimate type in the chattel slave owner. The normal law — the law of human association — distributes exertions to producers thru immediate personal services, and the exchange of commodities. There is in nature no room for either landlord or moneylord (called capitalist).
    • 1891, Proceedings of the General Assembly of the Knights of Labor of America
      The February meeting should be a Parliament of the people assembled to do that which will most effectually oppose the encroachments and usurpations of the moneylord, the landlord and the lord of party.
    • 1982, Robert Fishman, Urban Utopias in the Twentieth Century: Ebenezer Howard, Frank Lloyd Wright, and Le Corbusier, MIT Press (→ISBN), page 125
      Not only does the moneylord have his headquarters there [in the city]; it is also the natural home of the "satellites of rent" — the experts who direct the artificial economy of cities and the "white collar armies" who carry out their commands.
