Bill Gates?
While I'm generally of the opinion that there's no such thing as a 'good billionaire', Gates has, at least, used the bulk of his fortune for some laudable enough endeavours. He's one of the better ones, but if that's not damning with faint praise I don't know what is.
He's not a good one. He just spends money on PR campaigns, so you think he is. Just like all the rest.
And stole from the poor, not the rich.
If anything, a software pirate at home is a far greater example.
And was friends with Epstein after he was convicted the first time for child sex crimes
