Which billionaires have become billionaires without exploiting their labour? Who's becoming a billionaire outside of the ownership class?

I suspect most of the workers for Ray Dalio, James Simons, and David E. Shaw would strongly disagree with the characterization that they are being exploited.

Disclaimer/source: I worked for D. E. Shaw & Co and have close friends who work at RenTech. My personal experiences were amazingly positive and friends at RenTech say similar things.
