If I was making half of what Icstor made at his prime I would have a single day where im not working at least 8 hours, or so I'd like to think.
Bolded part is the most important here, because money really changes people. When you see that you can make thousands of dollars in a month basically just by doing nothing, why would you even do anything? What is really the reason to do any work if you see that you can make money by just sitting on your ass all the time and other people pay for it. That is exactly what happened with Icstor. He saw his chance and opportunity, and he gladly took it. Like said earlier here, back in the days he was still a pretty hard working dev when he got passion and enthusiasm before the money got the best of him with Milfy City. Why it has such a huge impact on him is simply because of his background. Where he comes from, the average workers monthly salary is $650. When you compare it to Icstor's income now, he is still making
twenty months worth of average workers salary just in
one month, meaning that
in one year he makes as much money as the average worker in his country makes in
20 years. So he is basically living easy life like a king. And since there still are people gullible and stupid enough to finance his luxury life at the same level, he has absolutely no need to do or change anything at all. Hell, as long as he makes even $1000 in a month he is probably happy, because he is still earning the double by just sitting in front of his computer when compared to average "real" workers in the factories and building sites in his country.
