Notch (http://www.twitter.com/notch) is pretty well set. On 12 January, 2011 at 3:34 PM CST, Minecraft reached one million sales. Of over three million people who have registered accounts for the game, over a third have bought copies of the latest edition of it. His gross income from it is something like 15 million dollars, although after PayPal's tax, he has still earned over six million dollars!
Did I mention that the game is unfinished? It's still in beta stage, meaning that things are still being worked out. Of course, his definition of the word "beta" must be different than what the rest of the gaming industry things. Today, he added several new things to Minecraft: squid, dyes, bugfixes, and other things. He is making amazing progress and he's not even done. Kudos to you, Notch.
