Its a good problem to have, they will still be wealthy, but its not the numbers people throw around as if each employee got a large % of the game's earnings to keep, directly.

if I paid you a flat million to mow my lawn in the USA you would be lucky to keep 1/4 of it after all taxes were applied in the highest areas.

Do you think its safe to say they got (at least) 1 dollar for every game they sold?
