Immoral? No. A bit tasteless and silly, though.

Really, if your goal (what you call a "win") is to get rich, go into finance. It's far easier to get rich in finance than entrepreneurship. Hell, your whole career path is even planned out for you.

Sure, you can go into entrepreneurship simply with the goal of getting rich, but it's a bit of a silly plan considering how difficult it is to build successful businesses. If you are into entrepreneurship in order to try build something useful and, as a side effect, make some money, then that's a sensible plan.
