<p>It's not easy for us ordinary people to comprehend the amount of money a billion is. Therefore, if you want to see more than an amount to understand the amount of money Notch has earned from selling Minecraft to Microsoft for $2.5 billion (yes billion with the letter B) Take an e-mail from his Beverly Hills mansion. This is the house Minecraft purchased, folks say, a $70 million home with its own theater with iPad-controlled fountains, automated glass doors and a stunning view of LA and, perhaps most important of all, a candy room, which is exactly what it is. This includes all the expensive furniture and televisions that measure 90 inches. There are also bottles of Dom Perignon champagne. </p> <p>Markus Persson (notch's real name) was paid in cash six days after closing the deal on the eight-bedroom, fifteen-bath property. https://minecraft-server-list.co/ According to Bloomberg, Notch outmaneuvered and outbid interested celebrities, including Jay Z and Beyonce, who have visited the property several times in the past few months. Jay and Bey are worth $1 billion each, whereas Notch's net worth ranges from $1.5 to $2B. We'd look at other pictures of the property on its website, but we're too busy thinking of a billion-dollar idea to sell Apple/Microsoft/Facebook in the future. </p> <p>[Image credit: 1181 North Hillcrest] </p> <p>pic.twitter.com/umDb1p5Se2 </p> <p>-- Markus Persson (@notch), December 18 14th, 2014. </p> <p>It was great to witness Notch remain true to his gaming roots when he bought Franklin's mansion in GTA V. </p> <p>- Ryan Block (@ryan) December 19, 2014 </p>
