Finding peace and fulfillment.

🎮 Markus “Notch” Persson, the mind behind Minecraft, sold his game to Microsoft for $2.5 billion back in 2014. Despite the massive payday, he later opened up about feeling sad, isolated, and disconnected from others. In a series of honest tweets, he said that even while partying with celebrities in Ibiza, he had “never felt more isolated.” He also mentioned that after making sure his employees were well taken care of, many of them seemed to resent him.

🏡 He bought a $70 million mansion in Beverly Hills, filled with luxury features most people only dream of — but it brought him little happiness. He even shared that someone he cared for walked away because they were intimidated by his lifestyle.

💔 It’s a powerful reminder: money might buy comfort, but it can’t always buy connection or peace of mind.
