If you believe that, I suggest you to read more comics featuring Doctor Doom.

Even though, Doom was grown from being the megalomaniac he used to be to what M(G)P said.

Doom actually wants to help the world, it just that his ego is in the middle. There's even an alternate reality Doom who travelled back in time only because Reed Richards beat him to make the world an Utopia. The funniest thing about this story is how he basically says "I'm jelaous."

One of the best Dooms is the one written by Jonathan Hickman, he even allied with the FF.

Something a little bit heartwarming from Doctor Doom is that even though he rules Latveria with an iron fist, he cares for his citizens, he's hurt if they are hurt (literally, in the Master of Doom storyline). There's one scene from a comic I can't remember he stops his car to accept the flowers a little Latverian girl gave him.
