I guess nobody is really at fault in the long run. From an outside looking in perspective I understand why he did what he did and it wasn't love of money.

When runaway narcissism allows one to believe that money is how you determine respect, then how you label it is immaterial.
If it wasn't love of money, it was love of self.
Both of them are shitty reasons to piss on the fans that worshiped you for a decade.
