  @derekquick1 @unusual_whales Yes PayPal is way more dumpster, more FCF. But this proposal looks terrible for GME shares or not!?

  Poached this tweet: “Search is full of ads and wrong answers. Every other email is an ad. Prime Video charges you and shows ads. Paramount? Ads. Peacock? YouTube? Hulu? Ads followed by more ads. Netflix full of ads. Meta and X, every other thing is an ad. Pinterest is nothing but ads. AI is in everything. AI finishes sentences incorrectly and won’t stop.

Oh sorry, your phone can’t handle this update. Now it’s useless. Go get the newest phone. Here’s a text from a friend, an email, a voice mail they left three days ago but you didn’t see until now because of sync problems with the cloud. It’s their GoFundMe. Their MLM. Their Patreon. Never mind, you didn’t respond to their text within 9 minutes and now you’re no longer friends. They blocked you. Make new friends. Download this app to find people in your area. In your neighborhood. On your street. Two doors down from you. Do you know this person yet, we think you’d get along. You need an account to use this app. That username is taken. Enter a password. Not that one, you used it on another site. You need to be connected to WiFi to download the app. Allow the app to connect to other devices on your network. Allow the app to access your contacts, know your precise location, store your credit card details. Oops, sorry, we got hacked now all that info is available on the web. There’s a class action suit. You can join. It’ll take a decade to get your $3.73 share of the ten billion settlement. We’ll send it via PayPal or deposit it to your bank, just tell us those details. Oh no, another hack. That info is circulating now, too. Here’s a spam call, a spam email, a spam text. Why are you angry? Why are you talking about getting rid of your phone? Why don’t you like AI, it lets us make all of this easier? Do you know how ridiculous that sounds? This is progress. You’ll be left behind. Do you want to be left behind? Do you???”

  Most people meet Elon Musk at the outcome and completely miss the origin story. At 12, he coded and sold a video game (Blastar). As a young founder, he built Zip2, got acquired, then helped create PayPal only to be pushed out before its biggest moment. Instead of playing it safe, he put nearly everything back on the line: pouring his own money into SpaceX and Tesla, Inc. when both were burning cash and on the edge of failure. In 2008, rockets were exploding, Tesla was weeks from collapse, and he was down to his last reserves choosing between keeping one company alive or letting both go. Most would’ve folded. He doubled down. That same persistence later powered reusable rockets landing themselves and made electric vehicles unavoidable. This wasn’t luck. It wasn’t smooth. It was pressure, risk, doubt and a refusal to stop building. He didn’t begin as unstoppable. He became unstoppable by staying in the fight longer than anyone expected. Start where you are. Stay longer than it’s comfortable. Build anyway. 🚀

  Ok now I see the difference began @Square and @PayPal. ✅ PayPal offers zero customer service and if they hold onto your money for their own reasons it's your problem In contrast, Square offers customer service that will keep you on the phone for half an hour and tell you that if they hold onto your money for their own reasons it's your problem

  @nicawlette Unfortunately we no longer have PayPal as we were having too many issues with it, as well as the fact that you can only have PayPal business on big cartel. Although we have many other new payment methods such as klarna and clear pay!

  So @PayPalUK @PayPal have let a scammer who was able to infiltrate their system including SMS to take 797£ out of my nominated bank account. I have tried three times to raise the case and each time they say it’s a legitimate transaction. Terrible service from @PayPalUK

  Never use PayPal They block your account permanently for no reason, didn't even tell me why they blocked the account. So many people on YouTube has the same problem, why don't shut down your company? I don't know why they still in business? @PayPal @AskPayPal @PayPalIN

  @Dskins207 @PayPal they used to be REALLY good...if you got scammed they would always fix it. PayPal is saying that I signed up to some subscription. (was signed up with my email not by me obv) and that I did it but with ZERO PROOF of me doing it
