Current Agha Khan founded the Agha Khan Development Network which has done a fair amount of good in the developing world.
He married a Thyssen, yes as in Thyssen Krupp a Nazi collaborating company focused on the war goals and used plenty of forced labour. Honestly I doubt that even what is financed via 10% of much poorer people's income than his that is done via the AKDN means he is a good guy.
AKFED is part of AKDN. He literally uses poor peoples money to build hotel chains for the rich and ultra rich and also is more interested in his own vanity and consumption than the people.
Irrelevant?
Prompt was: a billionaire who has done anything good, not, a billionaire who has never done anything not good.
