I read that Trump was the richest president since Washington. Maybe someone who already has wealth is more clear headed since they are not always trying to find an angle to add to their own bank account.
Not so true with another wealthy presidential family, the Roosevelts.
I don't see that TR or FDR tried to enrich themselves in office, so your theory doesn't extend to them. The Bushes, probably correct.

FDR’s kids were accused of getting clients and commissions because of their father’s position. It was a little like the Biden scandal, but no foreign powers were involved. Maybe not so much like the Biden thing, since I can sort of understand somebody wanting to buy insurance from the president’s son or give him a promotion without any quid pro quo being involved: “Hey! I know the president’s kid!” It’s not so innocent when foreign powers and more money and are involved.
