Unusual!
He's been there for 10 years, made $1b, could have retired before he started ... and it's unusual that those SO POINTEDLY cruel words are being used by him, based upon my 6 years of experience listening to / occasionally talking with him while I was at Unity.
It appears to be unkind, maniacal, transactional thinking in my perspective. It deserves clarification. Without clarification the impact is kind of an evil one: From a people sense, it divides people up, chides them if they are non-binary about monetization.
Pivoting to talking about himself in the next breath smells bad to me too, like a slightly muffled narcissism that excuses self-misbehavior.
And Marc Whitten cleans up / enables just after, which is common to see around narcissists: "To double down on John’s point, Unity has democratised creation [...]"
So to avoid the pathological dead-end of being considered a narcissist, he ought to restate this.
I am puzzled. I wildly guess he could be creating an "out" as CEO for himself. IDK what this is.
What would have been better messaging here? I'm not a C-level / executive and don't have a clue.
- voxl 4y agoIt's an important life lesson for anyone to learn that money is not success. An artist who makes enough to live but doesn't produce works of art specifically to make money is a success. They have many things to teach you about your craft, though true you would be a fool to ask them how to get rich. Money has diminishing returns on "success" if you define it in literally any other way than "accumulation of money" which only a narcissistic child would.
