Double dog dare me?

A better question might be “name a billionaire that does more good than harm to the world”? Although personally I think that’s an impossibility.

A single good act does not a good man make.

Bill Gates. (Has donated money to charity and founded one himself).

Chuck Feeney out here just existing and you having the audacity to suggest that good billionaire's don't exist. 3.7 Billion dollars donated in his lifetime.

The dead ones

J.K. Rowling, amongst others, have given away so much money that they've lost their billionaire status.

That one brought a couple friends and his billionaire son down and unalived together.

Probably unintentional, but that one moment saved the planet a lot of hurt down the line I'm sure.

The guy who ran Cuyamel back when they were bribing the Honduran government and after that the United Fruit Company supposedly spent the rest of his life drafting social welfare legal proposals for democrats. Which given just how evil the United Fruit Company was is more of an indictment of new deal legislation than anything else tbh.

Crassus invented the fire brigade and his head became a stage prop for the Parthians.

The amount of exploitation and destruction of the environment that it takes to accumulate 1 billion dollars can never be offset by any amount of “good” that is done by money. If I extract resources and a exploit a community and get a billion dollars, then turn around and give every cent back to that community, surplus value will still be lost.

Batman

Kanye West made "Graduation".

That's not to excuse the gigantic list of awful things he said and did (especially recently), but finding ONE thing a bad person did isn't hard.
