I'm talking about the people who would be on the 'board' members of the oil company. And then there's a few other discrepancies about the oil industry that makes it different from other industries but I digress.

Yeah, because they'd be investing by buying the game. You invest in the company, not the game. :P. And inherited wealth? Are you saying that only people who are more likely to be irresponsible with their money are going to invest in Mojang? Which is ridiculous.

1. I figured it was the same, because here in USA and depending on the state, the end taxes on the lotto wind up being about ~50% of the winnings, so if you win the 20 mil lotto you only have 10 mil. 2. Lotto was pretty unrelated.
