Nope, Linus and his wife and some of his siblings does.

No idea where the sibling bit comes from. My siblings have nothing to do with LMG other than my older sister showing up at LTX to volunteer this year. 

 

LMG is wholly owned by me and Yvonne.

That would be what's called a conflict of interest.

 

Afaik Linus and Yvonne (his wife) are partners and own LMG.

As far as I know, this is just a recurring joke. I remember Steve from Gamers Nexus repeating that joke during Linus' roast.

FTFY. I know she just graciously lets you pretend to have a say in anything.

In actual fact, Linus' prefers to wear Badminton shoes, but Yvonne wears the shoes around here....so Linus is subjugated to sandles.

Yes, Linus personally is owned by Nvidia, as is everything he owns, including LMG. /s

 

No, he's just, as Steve from Gamers Nexus put it, a "corporate fucking shill".
