Maybe he sees it as an investment as a way to create strong adventurers.
It is a pretty interesting cultural attraction, nonetheless, especially fitting for a monster country. It's hard to see it becoming any real money making machine, but as long as adventurers keep coming back, it should be a sound investment enough, considering it was created extremely cheaply by using Ramiris's power. If they had actually needed to construct it by digging'n'excavating, it would have been a huge money sink never paying itself back. It contributes to the colosseum, as well as the healing potion sales, as long as adventurers can make money somewhere in the world and then come back to Jura to spend it, dreaming of finding their fortune in the dungeon. Kind of like folks visiting and returning to Las Vegas.

On the side, the dungeon actually allowed Rimuru to safely and smoothly "get rid of" both Ramiris and Veldora. That is, it allows them to concentrate their attention to something constructive instead of constantly looking for trouble in the Jura Forest. Veldora especially has been getting pretty impatient of late and Rimuru can only come up with so many excuses to keep him in check. Ramiris is scatterbrained, so if she didn't have her own place in the Jura Forest, who knows what she might have done. She had already made a random shrine for herself as it is.
