Markus Persson, after selling Minecraft for 2.5bln: "Hanging out in ibiza with a bunch of friends and partying with famous people, able to do whatever I want, and I've never felt more isolated." "In sweden, I will sit around and wait for my friends with jobs and families to have time to do shit, watching my reflection in the monitor." Fortunately if you're a billionaire you have plenty of time and opportunity to reflect and find something truly fulfilling. Persson, getting somewhat sensible again: "To people out there with real problems: I’m sorry the whining of a newly wealthy programmer gets more attention than yours. Stay strong." Anyway, the billionaire tier (or even just UHNWI >$30mln) are the extreme outliers. I would imagine that it can be really tough to form new close relationships or find life partners if they didn't before they got ultra wealthy.
