Jamestown was an investment opportunity for the men who were sent there to find gold and to come back making the investors rich. The main problem was there was no gold, crops weren't planted, and they built the fort in the worse land in the area with bad water, mosquitos, disease, and 15,000 Native Americans.
To find gold and get RICH

Jamestown was settled to make a profit. Massachusetts was founded to ensure religious freedom for Puritans... and only puritans.

Its because the settlers intially had goals in planting crops for food but were really interested in mining for gold
Jamestown didn't come to Virginia to settle to look for gold and not to stay as a colony while the Puritans were there to stay and to create a colony.

The Pilgrims who settled in Plymouth, not Jamestown, were primarily motivated by the desire for religious freedom, escaping persecution in England. They sought to establish a community where they could practice their faith without interference. In contrast, Jamestown, established in 1607, was mainly driven by economic interests and the goals of the Virginia Company rather than a focus on religious liberty.
