Profit making or not, in the technical sense, as the above Rothchild quote suggests, you dont need to take direct profit from the central bank to benefit from it. When you control inflation and the money supply, you control how much money you have relative to other people (in simple, generalized terms).

And that matters more than numbers. Just like how corporations don't compete for absolute gains, but rather for relative gains, each year.
