Why would a company want to sell shares on the stock market?

I don’t understand this. Why would the guy who founds a company float it on the stock market? Surely if he was the sole owner then he would keep all the profits, but when you list on stock market the shareholders own it? Or does the original owner still make a fortune?
That’s what i have nevr understood, why the likes of dell, and mocrosoft which are making billions in profit would want to list on the stock market.

Is it because the original owners (michael dell, and bill gates) still own 51% so 51% of profits go to them?

How much money would you need invested in mutual funds to get a decent "monthly" return?

I’ve been trying to add some assets to my life. Is it possible for the average joe to earn an income off of mutual funds, or would I need to have multi hundreds of thousands invested?

I’m not trying to live off investments alone, but I’m curious what kind of fortune I would need to have invested to make a couple hundred dollars a month.

Thanks to those that offer help!
