Be most successful indie game creator of all time
I think Minecraft is a pretty cool guy. Eh kills twitters and doesnt afraid of anything.
notch is pretty cool
he hangs out in witwix's chat sometimes and seems like a fun dude. bet it's hard to make friends as a billionaire who isn't from a long line of billionaires, everyone is either into you for the money or trying too hard to ignore your money.
I feel sorry for the guy. It's like some new fable or story in mythology. You get so successful that you're completely alone.
>trying too hard to ignore your money.
Ah, so you want that sweet spot where everyone's jealous of your money and wants to please you but not to the point where its obnoxious. Or you just don't want them to break the illusion that you have something else going for you other than your money.
Who needs friends when you have 2.5 billion dollars.
I never want to be faced with the problem. If hanging out at your house is better than most peoples' vacations, how do you know if people enjoy your company? Would people be upset if you didn't pay the bill when going out to eat? Would people feel like they were boring you if you wanted to hang out at their place? Would it be boring? Would experiencing life without riches become entertainment since it's the only thing you can't buy?
It's honestly horrifying.
This. I have no money or friends and I'm doing alright.
That sounds like insecurity affecting both parties.
>Would people be upset if you didn't pay the bill when going out to eat?
I guess that differs depending on the culture. It depends on who invited who where, whether the place is outside people's standards and so on.
>be billionaire
>a figurative god
>my kids, their kids, their kids' kids will live like royalty for the rest of their lives
>if they ever discovered the immortality pill i'd probably be the first few in line to buy it
>still too much of a pussy to tell someone that is bothering you to fuck off.
Has notch learned that laws don't apply to the rich yet?
I'd at least be honest about it, if the dudes got good digs and a lotta toys I'd humor it. You got the cash and the stuff, why be shamed about it. I'd go right for the dude's arcade he probably has and start whoopin his ass in street fighter.
Don't get me wrong, I do respect his decision and have no prejudice, but why the hell doesn't he work out his fat or just pays to have it removed? I bet it would make his life a lot better.
>Be a billionaire
>don't make the most awesome game ever
Really? Really?
Really?
this. what the fuck?
Notch is a lazy asshole, what do you expect?
This doesn't necessarily apply to Notch, but I've never understood people who are millionaires or billionaires and do everything in their power to make more money by unethical means. Like dude, what the fuck are you going to do with the extra money?
No seriously, when you're a multi-millionaire and making six figures each day I just don't see the point of being an asshole. Suppose that's how you become super rich in the first place.
>Be a billionaire
>do anything that requires work at all
You can never have too much money.
While I'm jealous of Notch, especially considering I'm a lifelong poorfag, I gotta concede that being that fucking rich and that influential will probably wear a guy down pretty easily, doubly so considering he didn't try to be that influential.
Actually, what does this fucking fatass, influential as fuck billionaire do on his free time to wind down from dealing with idea guys and swimming in hookers and blow? Does he just lie around playing vidya and visit Sup Forums once in a blue moon?
Is it possible to release a game with a fake name and still get the profits? Can you make it so that nobody impersonates you with your fake name?
>hurr, being a billionaire is bad
who fucking cares? If I had as much money, all I would do is fuck Brazilian traps and snort coke till I die.
If I had as much money, all I would do is become prettier than any brazillian trap and suck cock till I die.
Have an edit f-faggot.
Hey Notch, long time no see. Here forever, heh ? Still shitposting around ?
At a certain point the extra money literally doesn't do anything though. When you can spend millions and not bat an eye, and then make it back in a short time what do you do with the extra money?
I guess it's because I'm from a very middle class background but I'll never understand such overzealous greed.
>but why the hell doesn't he work out his fat or just pays to have it removed?
Honestly, he probably doesn't know how to effectively work out. That's they issue with a lot of geeks, they're used to the idea that they're weak and unfit because the jocks spend hours exercising all the time, but the amount of work it takes to get to a baseline level of fitness isn't that much once you're past the initial hump where the first week makes you feel like garbage.
>>my kids, their kids, their kids' kids will live like royalty for the rest of their lives
you dont know about new millionaires do you.
That generally applies to people who fell into wealth more than earned it.
yes, and guess what his kids are
People who will have so much money that even if they piss away most of it they still will have enough left for their grandkids. I could imagine Notch giving quite a bit away to charity though, as he seems pissed off enough as the shallowness of humanity to actually want to do some good.
