Meh. Depends how you got the money. Obviously SBF is an example of someone for whom it was definitely immoral, but I doubt a billionaire exists that actually made their money morally.
It’s also difficult sometimes to enforce pledges to donate the money—SBF kept most of his money rather than putting it in the non-profits. Though in this regard Moskovitz and Tuna (and also Gates and Buffett for example) have delivered.
I can’t speak for Guy, but I’d say it’s because it’s impossible for a single person to create a billion dollars worth of value without skimming the vast majority of it from workers they employ.
One good reason to claim ownership to billions of dollars is that you are going to donate billions of dollars to effective charities.
