The European Patriot (@EUNationalism) reported@kok_675 @CroatiaFooty Let me PayPal 1000 euro your mother just to show my dominance. Are you down to do it?
-
KangaRoo (@KangaMage) reported@FrostyFinances 1) Fundamentals ultimately drive price. 2) Adobe has no competitor. Shop is just better than Paypal in every way. So the two don’t make for a ready comparison. 3) If the bull case is ultimately correct, isn’t the bear case best expressed as, “Don’t fight the tape.”? In which case, a charitable bear would recommend to just wait for a change in sentiment before investing. I suppose I wish I had done that, but that didn’t work well for 3M or Starbucks. I’m still learning how I want to approach this issue in the future.

Nikita (@nikita_builds) reportedI’d argue the most valuable moments in our lives look the least impressive from the outside, at least for me. Back in 2020, I worked at PayPal. I shared an apartment with someone who was more obsessed with starting a company than I was. Most of what we built flopped hard. We’d spin up a landing page, nothing would happen, and try something new a few weeks later. It was this seemingly infinite doom loop of try, fail, try. But action produces information, and I learned so much during that time. Things no amount of research or planning could ever teach me. Things that gave me the opportunity to make the right decisions later down the road. This is why, even to this day, one of the biggest pillars I live by is just try things. Even if we’ll soon live in an AI world, there’s knowledge you can ONLY unlock by actually trying things. Might as well be you who acquires it.

Stephanie J McMurry (@StephJMcRD) reported@USPS in case you don’t look at emails. For the price of postage for a card & magazine I could’ve sent $ via PayPal or ordered a gift through Amazon with free delivery. What a terrible value for mailing a package

Maurice 'Mo' Bujold (@gobagel) reported@david_parker @Heccles94 I wonder if these people believe Elon should’ve gave away his $220 million from PayPal shares? Also, disposable income of Americans in 2025 is estimated at ~$22.9 trillion. So 5% should be enough from everyone to solve the problems people are insisting Musk should be using his money for

Anonamoth (@Anonamoth) reported@thorntonmade @TrungTPhan What track record, he almost destroyed on PayPal other ppl had to fix his mess
-
Daniel Ƀrrr (@csuwildcat) reported@sightONsound @kenwheeler No problem: he started w/ the lavish, obscene sum of <checks notes> $28k from his dad to cover expenses for Zip2, which he built into a $307M cash + $22M stock acquisition by Compaq. He then reinvested every penny into PayPal, Tesla, & SpaceX, nearly going bankrupt in the process
-
Luna - Designer (@lunara_design) reported@delilaartx honestly the professionalism is the least of the issues. the real problem is that minors can't legally sign a contract for commercial use, and their paypal or strepie can get frozen at any second for tos violations.

Keri Dugan (@keridugan1) reported@PayPal is literally a scam! Why would anyone use this company? If you need help, they will just leave you to rot on hold as they think they can wear you down.
-
Carp☕️🐱 (@carpcatcafe) reportedwhy is paypal acting up over commissions that aren't even listed as nsfw😭 why are you giving me trouble because my wording didn't imply explicitly that it isn't nsfw
-
Silas Sheek (@sheek_silas) reportedFortunately I found a work around to the issue with Hasbro pulse. For whatever reason, it won't let it go through with a credit card, only with PayPal. I got the Red Alert minicon pack on pre-order, finally
-
Antonio Cádiz (@AparicioCadiz) reported@StockSavvyShay Visa $V and Mastercard $MA only charge about 0.15% of the total sum. About 95% of the cost goes to the bank (they issue the card) + payment processor (can also be the bank or something like paypal). So ask the government if they are confortable cracking the bank controled security + their regulated inexpensive tools to give control to a coin only about 1% of the population really trust. This is not only about friction cost but security, regulation, government + banks influence and control.

Christian (@chriszak) reported@priyanshsurti if you take paypal & aren’t retarded i might reconsider main reason why indians and nigerians are a no, are cuz i have had too many payment issues with em
-
Stroonzy (@Stroonzy1) reported@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.
-
Hrutik Kumthekar (@bushido_hk) reported@Rasmic Most billionaires started with boring businesses that solved real problems. SpaceX exists because PayPal worked.

Spike el Monstruo 🦇 (@spikermonster) reportedi think i might have to give up on the lydia pinup fashion zine because even though it’d be entirely sfw im scared its gonna get me in trouble with paypal if i sell it 🫠

ЂП (@djordjijeno1) reported@AskPayPal Hello, I cannot call this number from Montenegro because it is very expensive calling Ireland. Do you have any other options for contact, maybe on whatsapp or any other online platform through which i can contact you and resolve all my problems with singning in?

Entrepreneurs on X (@entreprneursonx) reportedFocus on the mission to help move humanity forward. To solve problems humanity will encounter no matter what. PayPal. Tesla. SpaceX. Starlink. xAI. Neuralink. One impossible bet after another…because some has to do it.

Haroon (@unfilterharoon) reported@simonateba Shane on you for wanting to steal other peoples hard earned money. He doesn’t live a lavish life. Guarantee you that you have more worldly possessions than he does. He invests every penny he’s ever made back into building things that help the world. He sold PayPal, and rather than just call it and never work again, he invested all of it and has grown it. Doesn’t own a home, sleeps on the floor in the office, couch hops friends homes while traveling. So ya, just shut up. You are just trying to stir trouble and be a thief
-
Aseem Kishore (@akishore) reported@CarsonTalkMoney I think PayPal is also a steal. Issue is how you get into these stocks. Most people see a drop and buy all at once and then bag hold. You have to DCA in and only go for shares too (options drain capital on depressed stocks IMHO). PYPL is better because it at least has a small dividend. Adobe could go down to the lower 100’s so I’m buying in bits and pieces.
-
Bruce Unfiltered (@JadeMiner) reported@fugitivemama Whats so terrible about living in a country where hard work, ingenuity, and perseverance can make you a trillion dollars? That used to be called "The American Dream". Anybody can do it. Just invent Paypal, Neuralink, Starlink, Boring Co., SpaceX, and revive Tesla!

Jordan (@jzrdan) reportedI’ve seen a few people here on X saying $ADBE is the next $PYPL (a value trap). It’s not. PayPal completely lost its moat. Stripe, Apple Pay, and Block didn’t just compete with them, they made Braintree and Checkout irrelevant at the infrastructure level. There was literally no switching cost left. Adobe still has the most powerful switching cost in software. Your entire creative life lives inside Creative Cloud. Your assets, fonts and your team’s shared libraries. AI doesn’t break that, it actually deepens it. The classic value trap has one main tell imo, FCF deteriorating before the multiple compresses. Walgreens, Intel & Paypal are all examples of this. $ADBE’s FCF is still compounding though. The reason the multiple compressed was on fear, not fact. Firefly isn’t Adobe’s white flag to AI, it’s their answer. You only call it a value trap when the business is actually broken and in my opinion, it’s not.
