Also, wasn't minecraft hugely successful before mojang hired? Sure he could afford to be more generous to employees, but I'm not sure they are simply entitled to a slice of the fat sad mans pie.

He also gave them all like a million bucks or whatever, which is kind of a lot of money and definitely enough to retire on if you don't buy a mansion or be retarded so people being mad about Notch's billions is just another form of whataboutism or something he's still a racist and kinda pathetic though

A million bucks lets you do a job you want to do for the rest of your life because the paltry 3% you get from a savings account can keep you going. Smart investing will make the so you don't have to work again. Then again, according to gbs that puts you first in line for the guillotine, so I don't know why people are encouraging people to become people they hate.

I just googled Notch and  what a sad, fat, little man. He is even a card carrying member of Mensa and wears a fedora and black fat suit.Terminally online people spend money on candy rooms and ball rooms.

Interest is taxed as regular income, too.

also yeah a) notch didn't install the candy room, it was a feature of the house to entice rich idiot buyers (and it worked), but it wasn't his personal project or anything b) he paid the ex mojang people a LOT of money that they had no legal entitlement to c) he's still an rear end in a top hat for other reasons

notch is not a friend of the worker, he fled his country to dodge socialism-tier taxes after using them to live the government-subsidized life. a class traitor just like lljk rowlingMr.Tophat posted:"But Charlie, don’t forget what happened to the man who suddenly got everything he always wanted."

Who wears a fedora in 2018? I mean, this guy definitely has the rugged physique of someone who spends time in front of a monitor. Why would this educated person deliberately go to a store, and buy and then wear something that transforms them into a lovely meme? I don't think the over billing was a mistake. I think the Prius he was riding in became sentient out of rage and tried to bully him for his lunch money.

There's a very specific kind of person that these hats are marketed to.  Like what kind of rear end in a top hat shops at a store literally called, "KNOWLEDGE." That's your answer.

I bet he pronounces his name in that really posh English way of "Eeen" and whenever an American calls him "Ian" he responds "Eeen" and crosses his arms.
