That's almost unheard of these days. I think it helps that he already had enough money, but still, a lot of people can never feel like they have enough money. Good for him!

Edit: holy shit! I just clicked the link. The game got to the point that it was making $50,000 per day! That's insane. $50k per day for something he coded over a weekend. Man, I wish the internet still held those types of opportunities for regular people.
