Spielberg has about 2 billion dollars of personal wealth according to Forbe's richest people chart. Can't he just direct for our enjoyment ? what's the need for him to make yet more money by creating yet more companies ?

Its probably not about money, its about doing something constructive. I guess he gets tired of dealing with those stubborn studios who only want money so he's creating his own studio. Thats my theory

Cause he can and apparently wants to. I suppose the drive and commitment a person needs to get that rich and successful to begin with, doesn't just go away once their initial goals are reached.
In short he's an evil, american, capitalist greedhead.

No -- he just doesn't risk his own assets to make his films. He's proud of the fact that he does not need to use his own money to make his movies, and rightly so. That's not greed, that's not evil, that's a good man protecting what he's built and earned while creating more films that enrich all of us and bring honor to the words "American filmmaker".

Take your socialist hate and go dangle.

Whoa horsey!! It's a joke. The poster i was responding to seemed to think just cause someone's rich then they should cease to have any ambition or plans to make more money.
