Why should a millionaire win?

I have to say that although Tom appears to be a 'nice chap' and all, the fact is he has a multi-million family business already. It is strange that he would apply and be accepted on this show in the first place.
It would be even stranger - and fundamentally unfair if he were to win. I think the winner should be someone who needs the £250,000 - not someone who is doing it for some competitive reason.
If Tom wins, in my view, this show will send out the wrong signals to the public. ie. GREED IS OK

Because a £3.5 million turnover does not mean he has £ 3.5 million cash on hand, in particular since it's an investing company. He might need the investment just as badly as the rest, or maybe even more for all we know;)
Er, yeah, there's that too: it's not about being fair, it's about investing the money in the venture that offers potentially the best return on investment.....
Well I wouldn't call it greed
I don't think how much money someone already has should have anything to do with the investment. The prize is not only money from Lord Sugar but also the expertise of his partnership - and you can't put a price on that
Since the business he already owns is a family one started by his dad, maybe Tom wants to develop something on his own merit?
if i had all the money in the world i'd still have Sir Alan as a partner , as his input/contacts etc is worth way more than cash investment
Which is being fair. The unfair thing is refusing to let the best man win because he's got too much money,
Surely the whole point in the show is so Shuggs can invest in the person that will make him the most money, and he is a billionaire already!
