Chris Roberts is still rich, and could probably retire right now without worrying about anything. He could tank the company, and he wouldn’t care.

When has any really rich person ever gone “you know what? I actually have enough now…”?

Wozniak is probably the most famous example. He recognized the corrupting nature of money, decided he had enough, and stopped to live in comfort and occasionally work towards causes he finds important

Lots of people have done the same… But if they’re rich and still chasing after money? They’ll never stop

I guess Notch as well. Sold Minecraft for an obscene amount of money and got into indefensible right wing views instead.

That’s the majority of them, but ragebait articles aren’t written about them, so you have no idea who they are.

Don’t be so easily manipulated by media.
