I think the unspoken implication is that being a billionaire means having an inordinate amount of power, such that immoral behavior like this becomes almost a given, because you can literally buy your way out of consequences (if only up to a point). Maybe the pertinent question is less, "How do we stop there being billionaires who succumb to the temptations of their unfathomable amounts of power?" and more, "How do we stop there being billionaires?".

I think I see what you mean: we know that power corrupts, and billionaires have incredible power, so this is to be expected to some extent.

You don't need to be a billionaire to cheat on your wife and have affairs. Average and poor dudes do that all the time.

The point I was making was, that what's the point of becoming a powerful billionaire if your life now has more restrictions than the lower classes? People amass wealth and power to gain more freedoms from societal rules, not less.
