Selling for a good profit gives you the flexibility to do other things that you want to do, especially things that require capital, like starting a small team of devs and designers to work on another startup or creating a private space transport company.
So many artists around me would just love it if they could have even a marginal exit as to be artists all the time. However, most (as in, 99.9%) have to take a full-time job to make ends meet.
My point is not to say it's disingenuous to state that selling a company doesn't make a person happy. But I think one cannot underestimate how those finances helped to further happiness and even continued success.
