Guys he didn’t need any severance. Dude was already loaded with shares. He’s sold 421 million USD worth of shares over the past few years.

No one’s saying he needed it. But knowing how corporations work it’s quite likely he got a nice payout.

I understand. I guess I’m more so pointing out a number that we have already.

Paraphrasing from Money Never Sleeps:

What’s your number? The amount of money you would need to just walk away from it and live. See, I find that everybody has a number, and it’s usually an exact number. So what is yours?

More.

I don’t understand people who have money like that and just hop from one company to the next. If I got money like that, I’d start my own company.

As someone with his own company I can assure you that you don’t. Life is a lot easier when it’s not your baby on the line. Do you think he’s going to lose sleep over Unity? Not even a little.

More stressful, but also more rewarding I imagine. Also, I don’t like being told what to do.

Definitely. Still, if I had that much money, I would do something other than start a company to make more money. I’d try to accomplish something that helps others and makes this world suck a little less. Instead, I’ve focused my entire efforts towards the survival of myself and those close to me.

I wouldn’t be trying to make more money. I see myself operating a small business related to hobbies. Maybe model airplanes or ham radio or something. Breaking even would be fine.
