Have you considered a world where the ideal outcome _doesn't_ involve making the most money?

It doesn't have to be the most really, but it's fair that they get some monetary returns commensurate with the value provided. All human society is based on an exchange of value, after all.

But realistically speaking, billions of investor money means that nothing short of the "most money" will be good enough.
