If he does science well, then he'll be fine. Scientific grants are not like favors or graft - and no one gets rich. They work very hard, and often risk their lives, and their data and analysis has to stand up to scrutiny.
You also seem to be impugning scientists as making stuff up to please their benefactors. That is truly an insult to scientists - they are by definition, true to the data and true to reality.
