Jerry famously hosed over the other primary cast members on residuals. Didn't matter much for elaine, but George and Kramer didn't come from a family of billionaires.
Michael Jordan thought selling shoes was more important than making a statement denouncing a racist man running for office in his home state.
JK used her money to stifle fans free speech and fair use with lawsuits galore if she disagreed that they were "true fans".
Those are the worst things I can think of for those 3. I don't think it rises to the level of psychopathy but it certainly is questionable behavior.

Except for Jerry, those are random stuff done WITH the money they earned. Not something they did to get the money in the first place. So you're just off topic.
