LinuxCon Brazil: Q&A with Linus and AndrewLinuxCon Brazil: Q&A with Linus and AndrewPosted Sep 1, 2010 22:49 UTC (Wed) by kragil (subscriber, #34373)In reply to: LinuxCon Brazil: Q&A with Linus and Andrew by MisterIO Parent article: LinuxCon Brazil: Q&A with Linus and Andrew
I don't know about Andrew, but I guess if Linus sold some of the stocks he got in 2000 at the right time he is probably a millionaire.
The added benefit from having billions instead of millions is very very small in real life. Linus probably could buy a bigger house or an old jet fighter or something, but maybe he just doesn't need those things.
People can be totally happy when they have love, security and a bigger purpose in life. No billions needed.

It's genuinely nice to see successful people not chasing money. I sometimes feel like I'm broken because I don't senselessly chase the stuff the way society makes me feel I should.
