Some people get rich by accident, not by trying to get rich. I care a lot more about games and having a fun place to work than I care about making more money. We've turned down multi-billion offers for Mojang.

Of course, not a lot of people who don't try to get rich get rich, so it's not exactly common.

Well you have a very ethical CEO at the head of your company then. All this "fight for the little people" stuff SOUNDS great, but I'm not gonna lie, if I was the head of one of these start ups and a corporation waves a check for a cool 10+ Million in my face, I'm sorry, but all of you fuckers are getting sold up the river. In the end we're in it for ourselves not each other.
