William "Boss" Tweed stole primarily to enrich himself and his associates through corrupt practices in New York City politics during the 19th century. As the leader of Tammany Hall, he exploited his position to engage in widespread fraud, embezzlement, and bribery, manipulating city contracts and public funds. His actions were driven by a desire for power and financial gain, ultimately leading to his downfall when exposed by investigative journalism.
