How Did "For Fun and Profit" Start?

I’m listening to an older Tim Ferriss podcast, and he mentioned that the original title of “The Four Hour Workweek” was “Drug Dealing For Fun and Profit” and it made me wonder where this meme started?

I know I used it a lot on FWF but I don’t believe I invented it.

I imagine it was hedonistic capitalists who coined that phrase.
Masochistic capitalists coined the phrase “for pain and profit”.
