I don't know if I would call it "personal gain", but his Administration has given many very large government contracts to companies that either family members or friends own large stakes in, or were affiliated with prior to him being President.
One example is the Carlyle Group that under his Presidency has gone from being a rather medium-sized company to being one of the top 10 largest military contractors. His father (Bush Sr.) as well as some family friends and associates are among the majority stockholders in that company.
There are quite a few other similar examples as well.
