Good acts do not make a good person. Plenty of billionaires have done good things, but they don't even come close to outweighing the bad.

Yeah, the wording of OP's question is dumb for this reason. What person on this planet has done literally only evil things? A better question would be more like "What billionaire is genuinely a good person and why?" Personally the size of my list of "overall good" billionaires is a rounding error but at least the thread would be more interesting.
