  @kenaviba @jacobreis1996 Venmo is not accepting my bank account details. In the meantime, I have PayPal and Zelle (preferred). I hope one of those options will work for you, otherwise I will work to resolve the Venmo issue. Please let me know 🙏 And thank you in advance.

  @PayPal someone stole $50 off my account and turned it into a PayPal gift card and stalled all my 2300 points. If you don't fix the problem in 24 hours I'm canceling the account. They tried to hack all three of my debit cards linked to PayPal. I canceled two cards and froze other

  When I got the moderator booking for the ADC Festival Business Stage, my first thought was: 41 amazing speakers. Let's interview them all. Spoiler: Didn't quite catch them all, BUT: I've wanted to do these street-style interviews with executives from the creative / tech industry for a long time. The problem is always the same - access while still being "nonchalant". Yes, I said it. Being the moderator changes the math entirely. Nobody says no to the moderator asking for a quick question on cam (except for journalists, lol). So I ran two things at the same time yesterday. 9 hours of hosting the Business Stage - speakers from Katjes, Siemens, Meta, McDonald's, PayPal, DFB, OMR, BMW Motorrad, Dr Oetker... - and between every slot, I grabbed whoever I could find and pulled them in front of my camera. Out of 41 speakers, I got 27 on camera. Videos coming soon.

  The problem with Chantal is her pout sessions R only as long as the next Burger King delivery or Salah saying something nice 2 her!

  @Catholic_bro @EddieJamro84189 You are a deceitful liar who I will expose as such every day I can. You get NO MONEY because NONE of these WORDS ARE IN THE BIBLE. I issue the challenge anew. IF the things you believe are ANYTHING OTHER THAN MADE UP CRAP it should be EASY TO FIND THEM IN THE B-I-B-L-E,. right? So I will PayPal or CashApp or Venmo YOU 10K , ten thousand dollars, for every single mention you find of the following SEVEN words, ready? Bible commentaries and concordances are NOT inspired by God and I , who know so much more than YOU, can point out blatant lies in various bible commentaries like "The trinity" which obviously is not biblical! Find ( ROSARY, POPE, CARDINAL, SACRAMENT, MASS, EUCHARIST, CATHOLIC.) These words cover your entire fake religion. That's at minimum 70K you could have in MINUTES if your religion comes from the bible, that is. IF YOU ASKED ME to prove that MY baptism is BIBLICAL, I’d take you to ACTS 2:38 where Peter commanded us to be BAPTIZED IN JESUS’ NAME .. Acts 2:38King James Version 38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. And tell you that on 12-27-92 between 2 and 4 pm I was BAPTIZED AS ORDERED in Jesus’ name. If you asked me to prove that I have the HOLY GHOST, I would take you to Acts 2:4 because.... Acts 2:4King James Version 4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. ...this where the Apostles received the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues and tell you that after being baptized correctly in Jesus name I spoke in tongues 12-27-92 between 2 and 4 pm. EaZY PeaZY. If the things you believe are BIBLICAL that's 70K you could gain IF those things are even mentioned JUST ONCE. If they are mentioned multiple times, that's MORE MONEY FOR YOU. Good luck.

  Are people really that shocked that Elon could become the world’s first trillionaire on SpaceX IPO day? When you actually look at what he’s built, and the size of the missions behind each company, it feels more inevitable than surprising tbh. As of June 10, 2026, here’s the current snapshot of his portfolio (just approximates): Tesla is sitting around a $1.45 trillion market cap, and Elon owns roughly 20.3%, putting his stake somewhere around $294 billion to $302 billion. SpaceX, including Starlink, xAI, and X, is valued around $1.25 trillion today, with an IPO target around $1.75 trillion to $1.77 trillion. With Elon owning roughly 41% to 43%, that stake alone could be worth $512 billion to $540 billion today, and potentially $725 billion to $866 billion after IPO. Then you add Neuralink, valued around $9.65 billion, where his stake could be worth $6 billion to $8 billion. And The Boring Company, valued around $5.7 billion, where his stake could be worth another $4.5 billion to $5.2 billion. Altogether, his total stake value across everything is roughly $830 billion to $870 billion, with his current net worth around $784.5 billion. This dude is building electric vehicles and sustainable energy with Tesla. Reusable rockets and global internet through SpaceX and Starlink. Brain-computer interfaces through Neuralink. AI through xAI. And underground infrastructure through The Boring Company… these are companies attacking some of the hardest problems in the world from energy, transportation, space, internet access, healthcare, AI, and the future of civilization. You can debate the timelines. You can debate his style. You can debate the man. But it’s super hard to argue with the direction. These companies are creating real value for millions of people today, and potentially billions of people over time. That’s why the trillionaire milestone doesn't really shock me, like it does for others. Wealth at that level happens when people voluntarily choose products and services that make their lives better, save them time, open new possibilities, and solve problems that once looked impossible. And if someone is going to become the world’s first trillionaire, I’d rather it be someone whose companies are trying to make humanity multi-planetary, accelerate sustainable energy, restore neurological function, expand global connectivity, and build the future of intelligence. The track record speaks for itself. PayPal. Tesla. SpaceX. Starlink. Neuralink. xAI. Again and again, Elon has stepped into areas most people thought were too hard, too risky, or too far away… and turned it into reality. When you look at the problems his companies are solving, the scale of the markets they’re going after, and the value they’re creating, it makes sense. He deserves it.

  @cb_doge $180m after paypal and he still had to borrow for rent after dumping it all back in. most people cash out at 10% of that and call it a win. the difference wasn’t just the money it was treating the whole stack like seed capital for problems nobody else wanted to touch. space, evs, solar all looked like charity cases in ‘02-‘08. that level of skin in the game is why the upside compounded instead of just sitting in a brokerage account collecting dust

  This whole #Outlier banning Nigerians saga is annoying. But let me shift your perspective to the bigger issue The system was never really designed with Nigerians in mind in the first place. Over the years, Nigerians have been blocked, restricted or heavily scrutinized on platforms like: PayPal receiving Stripe Atlas Wise Mercury Outlier TikTok Creativity Program Certain US fintech apps The painful reality is that once Nigeria enters the conversation online, many global systems immediately switch into fraud-prevention mode. That stigma is affecting millions of honest, talented Nigerians trying to work globally. This is bigger than VPNs. It’s a reputation and trust crisis attached to an entire country.

  Dear @FiluVAL I didn't forget about the £10, you didn't forget about it, let's talk. This £10 would help me renew my X Premium subscription, which would help me push out important tweets that could influence other people on X. You have promised me that you would pay me, however I do not see the £10 from Dawid Czarnecki anywhere in my PayPal, the only place Dawid Czarnecki is seen is in my broken heart after trusting you. You see I had a rough upbringing, I was born on Skid Row and my parents had to jugg to make ends meet. Your claim of me being rich is false, I currently work as a caller for Zoinbase International and still struggle to make ends meet. Bring me home Filu, send me that £10.

  still did land alone in NC with a job offer from Ubisoft tho (before progressing my career first further and also working for the ISP down the street doubly employed, Ubisoft let me keep working on the weekends they had a few sound designer employees and other employees moonlighting at Red Storm too, similar to T2 had peopel cross-polinate in from the nearby and to the PayPal and Zenimax offices back in Maryland) and live here alone for a long time now... cuz i already worked for Take-Two Interactive before 2014 in Maryland which helped, and a computer science educational background, so there's that. That's what was the start of my non-retail tech career. It's still been a mostly uneventful life, but boring and uneventful is better than not safe and left wanting.

  Being CFO isn't always formal meetings and spreadsheets. Sometimes it's managing a full-blown payment crisis from Thailand, too. Two payment rails went dark in the same week, and PayPal got blocked. The primary bank stopped receiving payments, both at the same time. Here's what actually happened.. We're mid-migration, moving assets across geographies, and the system flagged it automatically. The bank issue was on their end. But when two of your main ways to move money go down at once, you don't get to wait around for an explanation. Especially not from a beach in Phuket. So we shifted our affiliate payments to a new format that we were already planning to build anyway. Incoming payments were rerouted to the secondary bank we had set up and running. >No affiliate missed a payment. >No customer was affected. The whole team held it together quietly while it was happening. This was a lesson worth remembering, so we extended the runway, cleaned up some operational gaps, and put buffers in place while waiting for the revenue from our investments to kick in. Sometimes you build these buffers not because you expect chaos. You build them because chaos can just be another Tuesday. Even when that Tuesday is in Thailand. All systems are stable, our affiliates are paid, and payments are flowing. So if you're building and haven't set up your secondary rails yet, do it before you need them.
