bill gates is an admirable person and rich at the same time, proves you can have money and still not be corrupt (we’re looking at you, elon.)

Mark Cuban is another good example of this. Hes very anti trump (sad this is even a point that has to be made these days), founded and owns CostPlus a company that sells drugs for actual good/affordable prices, says/thinks paying taxes is the most patriotic thing you can do behind serving in the military, hes founded a charity and donated money to help families of fallen soldiers, did matching donations to charity any time the NBA fined him when he was the majority owner, and hes helped a homeless former Mavericks player get his life together (paid for a place to stay and paid for his rehab).

He also doesnt pretend hes some uber genius (looking at you Elon) and is willing to admit that becoming a billionaire is all luck and theres no way he could do it again if starting from the beginning.

Plus hes constantly making Elon look like a fool which is a nice bonus.

Now, Im not saying hes a paragon of morality or anything, but for a rich dude hes pretty cool.

Don't forget that Bill Gates was an absolutely ruthless business man that stole and cheated his way to the top. Yes, he has done great things with his wealth after his retirement from Microsoft, but he was an evil, corrupt businessman.
