That changes everything!

Thanks for the clarification - looks like 27MM SEK = ~4MM USD. Still not a bad chunk of change.

And he gave away his share of the Mojang dividend. Mojang still paid him 400 M SEK in licensing fees in 2011, and another 640 in 2012, which amounts to nearly 200 million US dollars.

Not making a comment about how awesome or not-awesome giving away $4M USD is. Just adding context.
