Man you've lost the plot. No one is condoning cheating but relationships are complicated things.

How is billionaire related? Its such an unoriginal complaint.

Billionaires get a free pass for their bad behavior because they’re such great “business leaders” or whatever.

That's lazy complaining - replace billionaire with person in power (cultural, religious, cult leader, political) its the same thing.

I would argue that he's not a hall pass given the coverage.

I agree that those in power too often abuse it. If you can’t wield your power for good than society should strip it from you.

Yes as you can see everyone is turning a blind eye to this.

And no one said a word about the affairs of Bill Gates, or Sergei Brin, or Donald Trump or Arnold Schwarzenegger, …

But when my neighbor Jim Regular cheated on his wife, it was on the front page of the New York Times.

Or was it perhaps not actually like that at all?
