Is it actually that financially successful? The problem with this "model of development" is that you can't make a huge profit because you're compelled to keep the gravy train going until it implodes
If I was Chris Roberts I would be bleeding the company dry at possible turn
Run all the employee salaries through your payroll processing firm, lend yourself money to buy the building to rent back to CIG, lease the IP (I think he did actually sell it), etc.
Not only is it a scam at this point, but it's a deeply inefficient one - you don't need to hire 500 staff to produce what looks like a couple million in content to keep the grift going
I think it's rumoured him and his relatives take about 10 percent of revenue, which is actually pretty small for a conman from Hollywood

Revenue is very high but I don't think Roberts has the intelligence to skim the amount of profits you'd expect from a commercially successful game
