Make it? Like actually invent and build stuff? Or just harvest money from others because you have the capital?

It's not logic twisting, it's just acknowledging the difference between doing good and feeling good.

As for "harvesting" - call it what you want - he is taking a truckload of money out of the financial system and giving it to worthy causes.

You don't need retirement-level money to create "real value in the world"...

allocating capital well provides significant value to the world. His style of investing specifically meant not pouring money into hype stocks and instead investing in companies that have sustainable business models.

Imagine if I said "there are so many more worthwhile things to do than painting" if some famous artist retired.
