Money .... it's always about the money and power
I'm sure there are tech bros out there that we will never hear about or see or know about .... those are the ones who just want to do tech stuff and not care about anything else
The ones we do hear about who become billionaires were only ever in it for the money and power
"Tech Bro" as a term though does pretty much imply insufferable nouveaux-riche douchbags devoid of any genuine emotion, who are happy to squash human dignity on an industrial scale for profit, and think themselves cool for doing it.
If someone is into tech for the true sake of technology then by definition they aren't a "tech bro" - they are a programmer, a hacker, a hardware tinkerer, an open-source evangelist, or any number of cool things that don't involve being an huge dickhead :)
It's really just about power, but money is one of the best ways to obtain it.
