Usually there’s something wrong in their brains. Most people don’t like to screw over other people, but they do, and they think they’re so smart for finding a “loophole”.
That something is that money = power, and power corrupts.
They start out with perhaps a little less empathy than normal, maybe due to being raised by rich, entitled parents, but as their wealth and power grows, the lose it all.
I think virtually everyone, save the Mr. Rogers and Dolly Partons of the world, would soon fall into the same trap, if handed a billion dollars. It’s human nature. We’re not poor because we’re better, we’re better because we’re poor.

Yeah, power damages your brain. I suspect by breaking the feedback loop between actions and consequences
