Ok. I'm just asking because I'm curious to see how people feel about the idea of using space resources for-profit. Since it will become increasingly feasible over the next few years it will have to be discussed thoroughly. I don't see what's wrong in companies doing it only for profit. If someone is willing to pay for it then it means they are solving a problem for someone.

At least initially they will probably sell services to governments wanting to build a presence and do science on the Moon. Currently, the international laws carries a tone saying that space belongs to everyone, and most private companies that are looking at the moon are run by people who want to use the moon for the benefit of humanity. But it will be interesting to see when it becomes so accessible that more "standard" type of businesses can also go there to extract and utilise resources.
