Another example of this would be a Kosch Brothers. They also have money and are not scared to risk it and while many of their companies do make interesting products and advancements their main focus is just to enrich themselves.
On one hand you have a guy spending billions to create really fucking cool shit, on the other hand you have 2 guys spending billions to try and pay less taxes while making some useful things..
I kinda wonder how far the koch bros could push their empire if they stopped spending so much money on political BS and just focused on making cool shit.

Well there you go, the proof is in the pudding on how each of them approach business.. I didn't even know the Kosch brothers made products..I thought they were powerful hedgefund guys who made it big in the banking derivitives industry :D Elon Musk said in his biography that he set out to "save the world" so his outlook on improving humanity as a whole is much diferent from someone whose sole purpose is to gain all the profit for themselves
