Musk. Gates. Einstein. Tesla.

These people created/discovered because they saw things differently than others. Some of them made money, some of them didn't. I'm sure Tesla wishes he died a wealthy man, but if he could see the impact his ideas and inventions have had on humanity, he would probably be pretty pleased with his contribution.
Profit was always the goal. You're way too naive if you think it wasn't. If it wasn't they wouldn't have started a business, they would have just shared the ideas.
