If Singhal is motivated by money at this point then he's a straight up fool. I'm going to give this all the due regard of a Mayer going to Yahoo.

What if he were only indirectly motivated by money? Money has a lot of potential for philanthropy after all and he did say that that's where he'd like to focus.

Why do you say that? Last I checked money still had a lot of utility in our society.
