[Star Wars] Why was Jango Feet working for the Separatists?
What was he getting out of the plot that would make him okay with being cloned millions of times and fueling a galactic war?

Well first off he was he was getting paid, that's the most obvious answer. However, if we think about it a little more deeply he either is or considers himself a Mandolorian. Which ever is the case he's going to have an inclination toward warfare that might be a societal thing or inbreed into him, but he's going to want war

He is not a Mandalorian and doesn't consider himself to be one. He has zero affiliation with the Mandalorians - not even with the Deathwatch - outside of wearing the armor.
He has, at times, claimed to be from Concord Dawn, but that's a lie. His actual homeworld is unknown.

First off it isn't a fact that he's not from Concord Dawn, it's never disproven it's just not confirmed either.
Just because he isn't a part of Deathwatch doesn't mean he doesn't think of himself as a Mandolorian. The fact that the Mandalorian Government went out of their way to say he wasn't one of them is evidence that he either claimed to be one, or was considered to be. He wasn't just wearing that armor for fun, there's no proof that it's somehow the best gear out there, but he still uses it.

Yes, it is a fact that he's not from Concord Dawn. That's the official canon, that he's claimed to be from there occasionally, but he's not actually from there. That's straight from Pablo.
Jango Fett, in canon, is not a Mandalorian and never was. He's never mentioned as being part of Deathwatch, either - he's simply a bounty hunter wearing Mandalorian armor.
The sole person who stated that Fett wasn't a Mandalorian had zero problems calling the Deathwatch exiles Mandalorians, even before it was revealed that he was working with them.
Jango Fett, canonically, is not and never was Mandalorian. His son has even less affection for them than his father did, only wearing the armor because of his father.

His exact quote "@CMWAshby The Fetts aren't Mandalorian, though I suppose Jango claimed to be from Concord Dawn at some point."
That is not conformation he isn't from Concord Dawn. He said exactly what I said.
It's like you didn't even read what I said, I stated that he considers himself one, that has nothing to do with being in Deathwatch, who are undoubtedly Mandalorians considering they're exiles from Mandalore.
There's also no reason whatsoever to believe that Boba disliked Mandalorians.
