There are the ones who want to be rich and go into businesses like finance in order to achieve that. These are the world destroyers. They try to selfishly grab as much as they can for themselves.

Then there are the ones who simply want to create or produce something useful and wealth becomes a side effect of their success.
These people often don't have extreme wealth as a goal in itself and may use it to help society like Bill Gates with his charity foundations.
