  @at_temp Oh no, PayPal is that slow? 😭 By any chance, do you use Wise? I've heard it's pretty popular for international transfers, and I think the money usually arrives much faster than through PayPal.

  I’m sick to death of people bitching about Elon Musk having a trillion dollars. The man didn’t steal it. He didn’t inherit it. He built multiple companies that literally changed the world — PayPal, Tesla, SpaceX. People love to scream about billionaires while driving around in cars, using their phones, and ordering things online — all technologies made possible by people who took huge risks and created massive value. If you’re mad that someone got insanely rich by making humanity multi-planetary and accelerating the shift to sustainable energy, then your problem isn’t with his money. Your problem is with success itself.

  @babadookspinoza It took Elon 24 years since selling PayPal to make one trillion dollars. In that time our government has overspent by 33 trillion dollars. The left doesn't even want to fix things anymore, they just want to punish people more successful than them. ***** in a bucket mentality.

  @NekoyukiOsuneko @vevans0009 @KatieDragonArt my issue was that i couldnt be able to do it because of the fact that i was going to end up homeless if i didnt get the funds i needed for the day coming up (15th of every month) and that was why. i was already behind on rent as it was. i shouldnt discuss this publicly, but for this. listen. yukiko. my problem wasnt with him it was how he went about it. he didnt even try to talk to me after i sent those messages. he blocked me and removed me instead of speaking to me. when you go and report it to paypal and get the refund through paypal im completely obligated BY paypal to do the commissioned work. because he went to a refund without both parties agreeing, i ended up suffereing the issues from it. not only did they slander me through the server and got me removed because of that. but they also went and started spreading misinformation and going public with it. i did not go public or disclose who the commission belong to much less the client. and yet they went the extra mile. paypal even told me after being on calls with paypal 5 times, to do the piece regardless of what the client thinks "because the client started the refund process you are expected to do the commission. it doesnt matter if they client doesnt want it. thats called buyers remorse. you have the oppertunity to provide the piece and that only matters to us paypal. they spent the money and they cant just refund or tell you not to do the piece. thats not how it works." and then the situation got worse because they didnt want to work with me. i didnt go around slinging insults at them or calling them names or ruining their name through my community or anywhere publicly. it shows more integrity than they have to not go and stoop that low. they used what i told them privately agianst me. and thats not even close to fair for me, then went and slandered me publicly everywhere? im sorry. they got their refund, i still ended up doing the piece regardless in hopes i wouldnt get doc't my pay. and i still lost the case. it longer belongs to them since they didnt pay for it.

  @PayPal I also found a "call us" interface that opens an in-webpage phone app(???) with... another AI assistant, which is also broken. So I'm shuffling money between accounts and hoping it gets there before @PayPal cancels it entirely (time-sensitive). They're asleep at the wheel.

  $ADBE is where $PYPL has been for years now, a cash generating juggernaut that, nonetheless, gets hammered into the ground, due to market perception that it has no moat, and won't be viable in the long run... This stock has always scared me just looking at it's Volume Profile Ranges, very thin support until it get's into the $100 range, which is where it could likely be headed............ Losing $250 at the Ascending Blue 2/1 Gann Fan Angle was significant, Longs were making a stand there, and I think that's where Michael Burry bought as well, if it could've recovered there, it would've likely hit $400 next, then the perfect storm of high jobs/inflation numbers, Iran War flaring up again, and SpaceX IPO sucking out all the liquidity in the Market killed off high Multiple SAAS stocks again, and all that was *BEFORE* Adobe earnings announced it's CFO was leaving.... Maybe the market was over-reacting following earnings, especially with how good the numbers actually were, who knows, if it can regain the $205 level on Monday, at it's 12-24-2018 daily low, perhaps the stock can experience an epic Dead Cat Bounce back to re-test $250. If it loses $205 though, $175 at the Ascending 3/1 Gann Fan Angle is next. My Bearish case scenario, is this sucker hits $75 at the bottom of it's Ascending Gann Fan Structure, where my finger Icon is pointing, it'll be similar to what happened with Paypal, the Short sellers are looking to break the stock below the Gann Fan bottom support, to trade significantly lower.... How much lower, you say....well, Strong Volume Support doesn't begin till Adobe hits $45, down to $30. Which seems impossible, but, gotta fund the Anthropic and OpenAI IPOs somehow, right?

  @RWToronto @mallen20243 @McFaul If someone had a trillion dollars just sitting in a bank account, yes that would be an eye bleeding ridiculous amount of money that they would never be able to use. It would be unconscionable in some sense. Elon does not have a trillion dollars though. In 2002 when Paypal was sold to ebay, he made $180 million after paying about 35% in taxes on the income. Those getting the payout now could try to do what Elon did. He invested $100 million to start SpaceX and $70 million into Tesla. Now 24 years later after insurmountable odds those companies are theoretically worth trillions and his share of those companies are worth over a trillion. But if he tried to sell all his shares, the value of them would collapse along with everyone's pension and retirement fund as the market can not absorb it and he would have to pay a tremendous amount of taxes and then he would no longer have any control over Tesla or SpaceX. His percent control hasn't changed much over the years, it's just theoretically worth more on paper. He probably has millions in his bank account, not billions. And he uses the capital he has to build new companies or innovations like Neuralink or xAI. All of these benefit us. All of his companies are benefitting us. We will be able to have cheap robotaxis providing transport everywhere, making commutes easier, cheaper and safer while reducing carbon emissions. Lives will be saved from reduced accidents and pollution. Starlink is already on many planes transforming our flying experience and productivity while connecting people in remote areas that traditionally had little access, equalizing opportunities across the world. His Neuralink is helping dozens of paralyzed people to be able to interact with and control a computer or prosthetic. His Optimus robots will transform factories, homes and businesses. XAI will make work faster and easier, solve problems, develop applications. His investments have all provided tremendous benefit to us and the future benefit is a magnitude greater.

  @DayalSami Actually, Elon Musk is wealthy because he hasn’t started with nothing, invested his own efforts and money and reinvested his efforts and money, even when idiots were laughing at him for things like PayPal, laughing that electric cars would never work and laughing about his rocket Company Now that everything he’s done has made $1 trillion they want to ***** about how much of what Elon earned they deserve. Social media is the most antisocial thing ever, but what it does really well is reveals who the selfish greedy ******** of the world are, and they’re not the guy that created jobs and solve problems and Bill products that people want, their people that think they deserve any of what he has done when all they’ve done is complain.

  @CalvinMcgettig1 @jimiuorio Yeah - Hughesnet. DSL speeds at high cost. Woohoo. Tesla - MUSK created the company. Oddly, out of money he made from selling Paypal. Musk didn't create rockets - he made them reusable, which NASA, ULA and Boeing didn't bother thinking about. Brought cost of satellites to orbit down by an order of magnitude. Your other points? Wait - there aren't any, just blather.

  2/ Back then I moderated a Minecraft server. Another server kept attacking ours, and our owner found out the guy was paying for the attacks with PayPal or Bitcoin. We sat in Skype trying to figure out what Bitcoin even was. I was too young to understand it, but it stayed in my head.

  @JWalters314 Created PayPal - sold it. Used $$ to start Tesla and SpaceX. Tesla re engineered the auto industry.Spacex is doing the same with space commerce. His "wealth" reflects the sum total of the entire infrastructure built and yet to come. He did solve problems.

  @Heccles94 Because he earned it. If you had been a cofounder of PayPal, the CEO of Tesla and the founder of SpaceX, you’d have a trillion dollars too. It isn’t a moral issue, and it isn’t complicated.

  @greengizie @akintollgate I get your point. Once trust is broken it’s hard to go back. That’s why many people now keep alternatives like @Vbanapp around for international transfers, virtual cards and cross border payments instead of relying solely on PayPal.

  James Jnr (@chijames__) reported 54 minutes ago

  Elon Musk wasn’t born a trillionaire. He sold a game he made as a kid. He taught himself programming. He built Zip2 and sold it. He co-founded PayPal and sold it. Instead of retiring rich, he put most of his money into Tesla and SpaceX when both companies were struggling. At one point, he was so close to losing everything that Tesla and SpaceX were on the brink of collapse. Most people see the trillion dollars. Few people see the years of risk, failure, criticism, sleepless nights and near-bankruptcy that came before it. The lesson isn’t that you should chase money. The lesson is that extraordinary wealth often follows extraordinary value creation, relentless persistence and the willingness to bet on yourself when nobody else will. Build skills. Solve problems. Take calculated risks. Stay in the game longer than everyone else. That’s how fortunes are made.
