    Former CEO of PayPal + Inuit Bill Harris on Moneywise today. He broke down his portfolio and expenses (and what it was like working w/ Elon + thiel. - Net worth: ~$100m. Divorce cut it roughly in half - ~$50m in operating companies he's starting, ~$25m diversified securities, ~$25m bonds. No PE/hedge/alts - "absurd fees" - PayPal/eBay exit: personally "more than 20 million, less than 50" - Personal Capital: sold to Empower for $825m with $23b AUM; his take was north of $100m post-tax - New venture: ~$10m of his own money in - Total annual burn: ~$70-80k all in, property tax included ("well less than a hundred thousand bucks") - No mortgage (cottage paid off), no car, bikes to work - Owned a ton of stuff (houses, cars, planes). Sold it all because it took too much time to maintain.

    @Aerea_caeles No, actually I don't have that message, but I know who it is because of the comms. The biggest problem that theme from the PayPal and socialmedia theft (which I never got back my PayPal, because according to PayPal I am not me) is that person blocked many people on my social media and deleted entire chats, in addition to changing the passwords and emails. So I didn't even get the full conversations and when I recovered my accounts, I could never contact them again on Twitter because I never found them to explain what happened, and they never responded to me on Instagram either. Obviously, I contacted as many people as I could.

    Most owners still use Claude like a polite intern who rewrites emails. That is the least useful thing it can do. Claude for Small Business now sits in Cowork with QuickBooks, PayPal, HubSpot, Canva, DocuSign, Google Workspace, and Microsoft 365. It can reconcile, chase, draft, and package work. You approve before anything sends, posts, or pays. Many never flipped the toggle. They kept pasting into chat and wondering why it sounded generic. Stop asking it for sentences. Give it a job. 1. Build a business brain. One Project: offer, pricing, voice samples, FAQ, three winning proposals, two that lost, who you sell to, what you refuse. Skip this and you keep editing sludge. 2. Monday pulse. One page: cash, uncleared settlements, pipeline, this week's commitments, three things that hurt if ignored. Ends the twelve-tab morning. 3. Chase invoices. It reads open invoices, checks settlements, drafts the follow-up, queues it. You approve. Overdue cash stops rotting in a Friday spreadsheet. 4. Close the month for your accountant. Reconcile, flag mismatches, plain-English P&L, export a packet. They want fewer surprises, not a novel. 5. Forecast the ugly week. Thirty days out. Payroll vs incoming cash. Name the week you run out if two invoices slip. 6. Find busy work that loses money. Job costs, SKUs, clients. What looks healthy on revenue and thin on contribution. 7. First-pass contracts. MSA, vendor deal, lease. Flag odd indemnity, auto-renew traps, deviations from your terms. Not your lawyer. The highlighter before the lawyer. 8. Proposal factory. Load three that closed. New draft from a discovery call, same scope style, disclaimers already in. If first drafts still take half a day, the Project is empty. 9. Discovery call to next moves. Transcript in. HubSpot brief, follow-up, open questions, scope outline out. 10. Triage inbound. Sort by fit, budget signal, time-to-close. Draft the yes, the not-now, and the no. Stop answering in arrival order. 11. Support voice from real tickets. Paste twenty replies you were proud of. New complaints get that register, not helpdesk English. 12. Campaign from the slow stretch. Where revenue dipped. Which send moved pipeline. Then Canva assets against that brief, not "we should post more." 13. Repurpose one real offer. Workshop, drop, case study. Sales email, reminder, landing section, three posts that do not sound cloned. One source. Many surfaces. 14. Lead magnet that does work. ROI calculator, quiz, scope estimator as an Artifact. If it answers a question your sales call always answers, keep it. 15. Hire with a scorecard. Role brief, first-week plan, candidate emails. Same standard every time someone quits. 16. Handbook answers the team. Policies, PTO, invoicing, refunds. Staff ask Claude instead of you at 7pm. 17. Tax folder while it is boring. Missing docs, categories, questions your accountant asks in March. October is a gift. April is a tax. 18. Vendor quotes on one page. Price, term, lock-in, exit, the thing buried on page nine. 19. Turn the Monday task you hate into a Skill. Weekly report, recap, SOW format. If it repeats and the bar is specific, stop re-prompting it. 20. Cowork the sites with no connector. Portal report, form, the CSV a vendor still emails. Messy. Cheaper than a VA on the same six screens. Do not let it send, post, or pay in week one. Watch drafts. Fix the voice. Then widen the leash. Owners getting time back are not better prompters. They gave Claude a filing cabinet, a few tools, and one job with a human checkpoint. Start with the Project, the Monday pulse, and invoice chase. The rest can wait until those feel boring. Which of these replaced a real hour, and which still produced a draft you rewrote?

    $PYPL: Acquisition hopes dashed; retail investors debate "value trap" vs. "undeserved sell-off." Review of the previous trading session: PYPL plunged 12.7% last Friday, ranking among the worst performers on the Nasdaq and S&P 500. Capital that had flowed in based on acquisition rumors during the previous quarter exited en masse; discussions on X shifted from "how much would Stripe pay?" to "what is PayPal actually worth as a standalone business?" (Source: Reuters) Key Event: Stripe and Advent reportedly abandoned plans to acquire PayPal; the prior offer was around $60.50 per share (implying a valuation of ~$53 billion), but negotiations collapsed due to disagreements over pricing, financing, and regulatory issues. Bullish Views: PayPal’s valuation is already significantly lower than that of most payment industry peers; Venmo, Checkout, and its crypto business still hold value for potential spin-offs. The new CEO is driving business restructuring and cost controls, meaning future earnings recovery need not rely solely on acquisitions. The current valuation may still attract interest from other private equity firms or payment companies. Bearish Views: The recent rally was driven primarily by M&A premiums; following the deal's collapse, the stock must be repriced based on fundamentals. PayPal’s branded checkout market share continues to be squeezed by competitors like Apple Pay and Shop Pay. Without a rebound in revenue growth, the low valuation could persist; one cannot assume a market bottom simply because the stock has fallen sharply. Trading Strategy: Avoid trying to catch a rebound immediately after the initial sharp drop; first, observe whether the price stabilizes in the $52–$54 range. A recovery above $57–$58 is required to confirm that panic selling has been absorbed; until then, it is better to watch from the sidelines rather than taking a heavy position in hopes of another buyer emerging.

    @alexlay88 That 9% is an easy fix most stores skip, Shop Pay, PayPal, and a BNPL option covers nearly every preference bucket. The harder chunk to solve is the abandonment that isn't payment related at all, unexpected costs revealed at the final step. Both are checkout problems, but only one gets fixed by adding a button.

While money moves from your available balance instantly when you process a transaction, it usually shows as "pending". 1/2

    @stphnmaher It’s gonna be a little more involved than you think- If Canada’s goal is true technological independence from the United States, a Canadian sovereign cloud is only the first piece of an enormous puzzle: Canada would have to replace or become independent of Amazon/AWS, Microsoft, Google and Oracle for cloud; NVIDIA, AMD, Intel, Qualcomm, Broadcom, Marvell, Micron, Texas Instruments, Analog Devices and GlobalFoundries for processors, AI accelerators, memory, networking, communications and other semiconductors; Dell, HPE, Supermicro, IBM, Western Digital and Seagate for servers, storage and enterprise hardware; Cisco, Arista, Juniper/HPE, F5 and Ciena for networking and communications infrastructure; Microsoft, Apple, Google, Adobe, Salesforce, ServiceNow, Oracle, Workday, Intuit and Broadcom/VMware for operating systems, productivity, mobile platforms, databases, CRM, ERP, virtualization and enterprise applications; Palo Alto Networks, CrowdStrike, Fortinet, Zscaler, Okta, Cloudflare, Cisco and Microsoft for cybersecurity, identity and internet protection; OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Microsoft and NVIDIA for frontier AI models, development platforms and AI infrastructure; GitHub/Microsoft, IBM/Red Hat, Docker, Datadog, Snowflake, MongoDB, Confluent, Elastic and HashiCorp/IBM for software development, containers, databases, data management and infrastructure automation; Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, Stripe, Apple and Google for major payment and digital-wallet infrastructure; Apple, Google and Qualcomm for smartphones and mobile ecosystems; Akamai and Cloudflare for content delivery and internet infrastructure; and, critically, Cadence and Synopsys for semiconductor-design software plus Applied Materials, Lam Research and KLA for the equipment needed to manufacture advanced chips. Even that doesn’t completely solve the problem, because Canadian, European, Japanese, Taiwanese and Korean products frequently incorporate American chips, software, patents, design tools or manufacturing equipment somewhere in their supply chains.

    @The_Great_Null I haven't been able to work for about 2 years now due to sudden health complications needing surgery. This one illness has destroyed my husband and I financially. The injection I need isn't covered by my insurance and costs $500 month. Now my husband gets paid and after bills there like $100 left for food for 2 weeks. We have been living on cereal, cheap frozen pizzas and hot dogs. Sometimes I dont eat for a few days so the food lasts longer. If we could any donation to help out, We would be so thankful! Hopefully these gas and grocery prices go down and I get healthy enough to work again. I dont even know how much to ask for...$500 or $1000? Here is my PayPal QR code.

    Einstein never made a dollar from relativity. The Wright brothers flew the first plane and died broke. Every railroad baron who connected a continent went bankrupt. They created everything. They captured nothing. Google made $50,000,000,000 in one year selling search. Airlines moved 800,000,000 passengers and made approximately zero profit across their entire 100-year history. One is more important to civilization. The other is worth four times more. Peter Thiel spent one Stanford lecture explaining why - and why most people have it completely backwards. This is Stanford, How to Start a Startup. He called it Competition is for Losers. He opens with one formula: value created times percent captured. X times Y. The mistake everyone makes is thinking X and Y move together. Then the lies. Monopolies pretend they are not monopolies - Google calls itself an advertising company. 3.5% of a $500,000,000,000 market. Not a monopoly - just a minnow in an ocean. Startups with nothing unique do the opposite. They call themselves the only British restaurant in Palo Alto. Then the small market rule. Amazon started as a bookstore. PayPal started with 20,000 eBay power sellers. Facebook started with 10,000 people at Harvard - 0 to 60% market share in 10 days. Everyone called these markets too small to matter. That was the point. Then last mover. 75% of a tech company's value comes from cash flows after year 10. First mover gets a one-third **** advantage. Last mover wins the game. The question is never who got there first. The question is who stays. Then the personal story. Thiel graduated Stanford, got a job at a top New York firm everyone wanted to enter and everyone wanted to leave. Left after 7 months and 3 days. A colleague told him: it's reassuring to see you leave. I had no idea it was possible to escape from Alcatraz. All you had to do was walk out the front door. Watch the moment he redefines loser. We think losers are people who can't compete. He argues the real losers are the ones who compete hardest - in markets so crowded that winning means capturing nothing. A founder I know replayed this before turning down a Series A that wanted him to go after a larger market. Said it was the first time saying no to money felt like strategy rather than fear. Free on YouTube, Stanford. bookmark this and watch later - after this lecture every crowded market you see will feel like a sign someone already lost

    @AdamoMancino Sure, there’s companies that could buy PayPal. The problem is the incompetence of leadership. Management would rather fund a DEI department rather than actually improve margins. Management is all in on AI, yet payroll is at record levels with margins/sales collapsing. G&A expenses are forecasted at 3% growth, slightly below sales growth.

    HOW TO CREATE AND SELL AN EBOOK IN NIGERIA You do not need to be a professional writer to create an ebook. You just need to know something useful that other people want to learn. Here is the full process from idea to income: - Step 1: Pick a topic that solves a specific problem: The more specific your topic, the better it sells. "How to Register a Business Name with CAC in 2026" will outsell "How to Start a Business in Nigeria" every time. Think about what people ask you frequently, what you know well, or what you spent time learning that others would pay to skip. - Step 2: Write it: Use Microsoft Word or Google Docs. Write in simple, clear language. It does not need to be long. A 20 to 50 page ebook that solves one specific problem is more valuable than a 200 page ebook that rambles. Write like you are explaining to a friend. - Step 3: Design the cover: Go to Canva (canva. com) and search for ebook cover templates. Pick one, add your title and name, and download it. Free and takes less than 10 minutes. - Step 4: Convert to PDF: Once your ebook is ready in Word or Google Docs, export it as a PDF. That is the format you will sell. Go to File, then Download, then PDF Document. - Step 5: Upload and sell on Selar Go to selar. co and create a free seller account. Click Add Product, choose Digital Product, upload your PDF, write a clear description, set your price in naira or dollars, and publish. Selar handles payment collection and delivers the ebook automatically to your buyer. Payouts land in your Nigerian bank account the next business day for naira sales. You can also sell on Gumroad (gumroad. com) which takes a flat 10 percent per sale and pays via PayPal. Most Nigerian sellers access their Gumroad earnings through Payoneer. - Step 6: Promote it Share your Selar link on your WhatsApp status, X, Instagram, and any group you belong to. Your first sale almost always comes from people who already know and trust you. Offer a launch discount to create urgency and ask a few people to share your link as affiliates. Selar has a built-in affiliate feature you can activate for free. You do not need a large following. Nigerian creators with 500 engaged WhatsApp contacts consistently earn more than those with 50,000 cold social media followers. Create once. Sell forever. Start today. Above all, love God.
