Did he make the right choice?
>>
How isn't it the right choice to make a billion dollars?

Are you high right now my dude?
>>
Think about it this way. He made billion dollors and doesn't have to worry about Money anymore.

Meanwhile I'm a NEET and have to worry about weather my neetbucks will get me more rice.

>>382131572
Isn't there a study that money brings happiness only until a certain limit like 100k annually (I don't remember it) but after that it doesn't rise anymore?

Sure he can behave like Charlie Sheen now: sex, drugs, all that vain stuff. Guess what his health will be like with 55.

>>382131798
He'll also have the very best doctors to keep him alive too. He'll be fine. Money doesn't always equate happiness but it sure as hell can provide avenues to get you there.

You mean by selling minecraft?
At first when I heard I tought that he was a fucking retard for selling the gold laying goose but looking at minecraft now it's certain that he didn't wanted to be a fucking babysitter for gorillions of kids across the globe and didn't wanted stuck with minecraft forever.
What I don't understand is now he can afford to develop pretty much whatever he wants, not to mention he can land any deal he wants with any publisher thanks to minecraft but all he is doing is shitposting on twitter while wasting his money.
Maybe he is satisfied with what he accomplished and he is done with making vidya.
>>
i don't understand his desire to party hard

like the whole vegas thing with the first minecon and all the trainwreck stories about the 'afterparty' where a bunch of guidos took over

buying that ugly house in california.

i mean you have 1 billion dollars, you could live anywhere in the fucking world, and he picks some house with a wall full of sweets.

Money let's you have a choice, you can still be happy without one, but it's probably the easiest foundation to do what you want. If that includes watching livestreams, whatever if it makes him happy

>>382133758
This. There's zero point in him ever working again. People have trouble understanding what a billion dollars actually is. You can buy private islands for less than 10 million for instance. Highest cost street legal cars are about a couple of million at best.

Him sinking funds into something unproven again is just dumb.

>>382131503
Minecraft was a creative dead end as far as it was concerned to him.
So yes, taking the 2bil is way better than trying to continue owning that game (he wasn't even working on it towards the end).

And to all the people saying he would've been better off keeping it and having a """job""", he wasn't even working on Minecraft towards the end. In both cases he would have still just been a rich lazy fuck.
Might as well take the bigger sum and use that in whatever future creative endeavors he has (he doesn't have any).

You don't get it. Normies chase a carrot on a stick. Notch is swimming in carrots.

Notch could hire the best fitness coaches, trainers, martial arts experts, survival experts, psychologists, military dudes, even fucking CIA agents in the world who could mold him into an alpha.

He could literally become fucking batman, a living god. He can develop whatever talent he wants. Oh you want to get into climbing? Let's fly to fucking Tibet and get trained by the best climbers on earth. You want to learn a new language? You can hire girls who will teach you Japanese AND have sex with you.

Notch could LITERALLY go to fucking outer space with that money.

He could do so fucking much, it blows my mind. He could become a totally different human, but instead he chooses to be a fat, useless, cynical, shitposting fuck.

>>382131503
The only wrong choice he made was not continuing to work. I get you have a billion dollars now, and don't NEED to. But the type of person you become is terrible. Do something with some of that money and leave your mark. Minecraft should not be his magnum opus.
>>
>>382135043
To some extent you need low self-esteem to want to change yourself like that. But making a billion dollars will convince you that you were already perfect and you have no need to change

so? he's still a uninteresting people pleaser with no confidence, interests, passions or anything going for him really. Being a NEET doesn't make you cool

>>382131503
He's fucking up now that he's got all the money.

He fucked up buying that ridiculous house just cause but that's the past. Right now he needs to stop feeling sorry for himself and man up. I think he should go back to working on games, even if only for himself. He did it back before Minecraft and now money isn't a problem so he's hardly lacking.
>>
>Got out of Minecraft before it really went to shit

did you see the minecon videos? did you see the questions people were asking him? did you see his fanbase definitively unmasked as computer-retarded kids and autistic adults?

i would have gotten the fuck away from the cancer that became minecraft for much less than a billion dollars, notch came out smelling like a rose.

now, whether or not he made the right choices in the wake of selling minecraft is a whole other conversation.

Notch is our guy and anyone who dislikes him is a normie faggot

He's lived the dream life that /v/ has always wanted to live.

>>
>>382131798
Nah man, that just has to do with income. Because after that point it doesn't really make that much of a difference anymore and according to that study the added responsibility you get with higher income ensures you don't become 'more happy'
>>
Yes, he cut himself off from a company full of leeches as can be seen when they all called him a traitor for not giving them any of his money after they drove the game into the shitter.
>>
>>382135982

he doesn't have to change his personality, he has literally nothing to do so he should hire a nutritionist, a chef, and a personal trainer.

if he became not fat with a billion dollars he could probably flit around to LA or silicon valley parties and charity benefit shit and find some QT artsy bitch who he could make fat little kids with.

but if he's going to stay fat, he's going to stay a depressed loser sitting on top of all that scrooge mcduck gold he has amassed. working out and being healthy makes you feel better in and of itself, anyway. this nigga has no excuse
>>
>>382136770
If you're talking about Eva, yes unfortunately.

Guy has over 1 million subscribers on Youtube (mostly little girls ironically) and still gets money on Patreon.

People are literally paying him to work on nothing and just stream games on Twitch all day.

In a sense, I guess he's also living the dream life that /v/ wants. I mean, who on /v/ doesn't want to be wanted by little girls everywhere while sitting on their ass playing video games?
>>
>>382135982
>you can't just hire people to magically change your personality you retard
Your personality is the result of your history, health, upbringing and environment idiot. It is not as solid as you believe.

Why are fat, smelly neckbeards often shy? Because they know that in their state they are not desirable to anyone, it doesn't mean that their shyness is a solid part of them.

If you have a weak body you will have a weak personality.

Yes

Look at Zuckerberg for instance. His entire wealth is tied to facebook. If he tries to sell it, the value drops, and he has nothing
If facebook goes down, he is worth nothing
If he tries to take out a loan for a new investment, and it fails, that will affect the value of facebook as well
He says or does something wrong, it hurts his wealth

Selling out was the good decision
Notch is 100% free

I have to wonder how he did it. He was such an imbecile that I thought he would stop being relevant at some point.

Anyway, there is nothing to be jealous of, honestly. Compared to Zuckerberg or Musk he is just an insect who had a lot of luck.

What you faggots always forget is that saying: "I developed an autistic kids game" is not really hot to women. Some will probably remember the game from their son or nephew. You really think Notch swims in pussy? Maybe paid pussy yeah, but he is not a rock star who has a cult following.

Honestly any way to make a billion is more attractive than this way. A book, a company, you name it.

Notch is probably the laughing stock of the billionaire scene.

Honestly, Botch just needs a fuckton of drugs to motivate him into getting /fit/and handsome, then he needs to find normal nerdy friends to socialise with.

His only problem right now is that he's alone and he's unfit, but those two factors counter each other, if you solve one you're on the path for solving the other.

If notch gets fucking ripped, he'll be on the road to being completely happy.

This just makes me realize how unambitious most people are on /v/

You guys don't realize the potential you have to grow your net worth and shape the world in your image.

You should see money as an asset. It displays the amount of sway you have over people to use it to shape the world in the way you want.

People that view money as a way to acquire products and services are literal plebs that don't understand how the world works.

All you fucking faggots would just "be content" when you would get even something as little as 1 million dollars and "just live life to the fullest" instead of trying to become something more.

I hate that he gets memed a lot but Elon Musk is a good example of how someone uses his wealth to shape humanity towards his will. THAT is how money should be used NOT as some bullshit means of acquiring products like a fucking cuck.

You are all unambitious plebs that will never make it in the real world. Get the FUCK off your ass RIGHT NOW and buy some shares with 7% div/yield instead of keeping your savings on the bank you fuck. DO SOMETHING WITH YOUR LIFE.

The problem with most people as you say is that they become trapped in a vicious cycle of consumerism. People trying to buy happiness. I think what most people really want is fulfillment in life. Not everyone needs to follow Elon Musk's example. In fact I have to wonder how happy he really is... the actions he continues to make would suggest he's restless and looking for something more. I don't think Elon has actually found fulfillment.

Play it save but steady. Buy stock with 7% div/yield in diverse markets so that my net worth will have a guaranteed 7% increase a year even if those stock prices flunctuate since the 7% payout a year would be guaranteed. Thus would be 140 million a year of guaranteed income which could be reinvested into high yield stocks or invested into startups or even pioneer my own pet project companies.

Because people are limiting themselves by thinking about "going somewhere" "exploring the world".

That's all bullshit. You don't go explore some random city in your country. Because it's your country so you don't consider it special.

What if the entire earth becomes federalized. You'll look like a shitty hillbilly because you spend your entire life only on earth and thought you traveled because you went to different sections of the same planet.

Think bigger in scale and realize how fucking retarded the prospect of traveling to foreign nations sound. Especially when most people are the same everywhere except for slightly different customs and economic situations.

The world is far more complex than you realize, moron. And no the world is not the fucking same everywhere. Why travel? To briden your horizon. To experience the world how it really is. To experience other cultures. Sure you could do that right now, but as a billionaire you have so many security nets that it's impossible to fuck it up. You can bribe everyone in every country.

The TV makes it seem like the American consumerist lifestyle is everywhere on earth. This is simply horseshit. There are thousands of interesting cultures. You could go to some exotic Indian village where they worship trees and talk with the elder about the famine of 1952. You could talk to a 100 year old who experienced British rule and discuss world politics with him and where he thinks India is headed. You could talk to so many people and experience so much new stuff, eat new stuff, fuck new stuff, get high and speak to the spirits on some shit.

Our planet is interesting, people just need to talk to each other. With a billion you would be like a superstar and everyone would want to talk to you. You would be treated like royalty in every village everywhere.

I steam a video of that hall too to make other faggots jealous. Oh and in the middle of a hall there is a gigantic mountain of the finest weed in existence and some girls are specifically tasked with building the joints and delivering it to the gamers and even light it.

Can't top that, can you?

yeah it was pretty clear he was not feeling being a developer anymore. side projects fail simply because they aren't as exciting as or don't compare to minecraft. anything that comes out of mojang will be forever compared to minecraft's success.

>>
>>382152936
He SHOULD* spend...
>>
>>382143325
I don't know if he got burned, but I think he's afraid.

Nothing he could ever do will top the success of Minecraft. Ever. And while Minecraft was a massive cultural hit, it was in part due to its simplicity.

The other thing is I really don't think Notch is the creative type. He made Minecraft as an improved Infiniminer and most of the additions were user mods before they became part of the game. So what is he going to do?

He could probably ask to be in any game studio in the world, and they'd say yes. But what is going to do? Be a writer, when he hasn't written anything in his life? Be a creative director, when the game he made was devoid of anything creative?

Anything he does in the future will be in the shadow of Minecraft, and he's not on the level of creative aspiration of someone like Kojima or even CliffyB or Todd Howard.

He's a nerd who has found fortune and fame, but in the process has become locked out of doing what he wants.

This is the only correct answer:

Try to survive to 2050 and use muh billions to obtain immortality, if the tech isn't there yet at least use the progress in medicine to live another 50 years relatively healthy. Then become an immortal cyborg in 2100.

If you can stay immortal for the next thousands or millions of years the chance is high that you will literally become a god, capable of anything, because of the exponential growth and post-singularity.

So yeah if Notch was smart he would do that, just like any billionaire.

I think he feels he has too much pressure. There'd be press and hype immediately covering whatever "next big thing" Notch makes. I think he preferred making games the old indie way.

It's not like with art like film, painting, or music where you learn a skill and can then produce a lot of works with high standard. Games will be shat upon no matter how good they are, especially if it's from an "established" developer.
