  @kaarstyyy @christiandoana I didn’t have chargeback issues but after like 10 years selling on eBay and using PayPal they were like: we’re closing your account and locking funds for 180 days (6 months) because your bank something about our bank info (the same Chase account we’ve used since the beginning).

  Which they removed their account, the effort to run from the issues they caused. This issue had me so upset I have as you can see left comments on their twitter which they are still ignoring. This is to warn people of these situations because on top of this, PayPal (below)

  @cafreiman Nah. He became a millionaire with paypal, arguably an important problem. The a hundred-millionaire by doing hostile takeovers of companies solving important problems. He became a billionaire by becoming a lying hype man with great PR. But accountability is coming, soon.

  @grahamformaine He brought up paypal, got 200Mio and instead of laying down he kept pushing the boudaries on so many topics. What did you achieve in life except draining the public system for your own benefit? People like you are useless. We need less Grahams and many more Elons. NGFY

  @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.

  @Silverfj13 @Badhombre His first business, Zip2, was just him coding all day in the office building where he and his brother lived. They showered at the YMCA and ate value meals. Then he sold the company and started another, and coded into existence the prototype software that became PayPal. He didn't invent the electric car but he oversaw the manufacturing process to build the things. He was on the floor every day — not fiddling with spreadsheets in an office — helping his engineers problem-solve. With SpaceX he started by reading up on rocket tech and was up to his elbows in the process. Again, he was on the floor every day while someone else did the spreadsheets. He's able to attract and inspire the best engineers on the planet. He's got unparalleled VISION. The engineers trust him because he is a detail-obsessed nerd like they are. Elon clears out the nonsense underbrush that clutters other businesses. He's one of them, not a suit hired to herd them like cats. Never invented or created. Cripes, your narcissism is showing.

  @telegram @durov “Disable saving private “features have very bad down side , if someone scammed you ( example took payment and run away while a deal ) , you can’t have any proof like screenshot ! One guy took my 200€ - 2 days ago and I had proof that I sent to the PayPal. But seeing this feature forced me to suggest you this. Thank you ! Great platform

  the first trillionaire in human history just happened and most people scrolled past it. the FIRST person in all of recorded human history to cross $1 trillion. let that sink in - elon musk, born in South Africa - bullied so badly he was hospitalised as a kid - moved to North America with a backpack and almost nothing - started Zip2 with his brother in a tiny office, sold it 4 years later for $300 million - took that money and co-founded PayPal changed how the world moves money sold to eBay for $1.5 billion - instead of retiring, put everything into Tesla AND SpaceX at the same time - 2008 both companies nearly dead, down to the last rocket, last launch, last dollar - kept going anyway - watched the world laugh at electric cars then watched Tesla become the most valuable automaker on Earth - watched the world call reusable rockets impossible then landed one, and did it again, and again - bought Twitter for $44 billion when everyone said don't, rebuilt it from scratch, renamed it 𝕏 - built Starlink and gave internet access to millions who never had it - sent humans back to space from American soil - launched xAI and jumped into the global AI race - now actively building the path to Mars not as a dream, as a deadline one lifetime. eight industries. zero inherited wealth. zero permission from the world. this is not a business story. this is a history story. the first trillionaire was just a bullied kid from South Africa who refused to stop building. congratulations elon, you deserve this <3

  Elon Musk got rejected by Netscape. He walked into the lobby, was too shy to talk to anyone, and walked out. Never got the job. At his first company Zip2, the board demoted him. Twice. They refused to let him be CEO. He got fired from PayPal as CEO while flying to his own honeymoon. The board voted him out mid air. He almost died of malaria in 2000. Ten days in intensive care. Lost 45 pounds. A day from death. His first child died at 10 weeks old. His first rocket exploded. Falcon 1, flight one. Burned on the pad. His second rocket exploded. His third rocket exploded. The last of his money was nearly gone. Tesla nearly went bankrupt in 2008. The closest he ever came to a nervous breakdown. Both companies almost died on the same Christmas Eve. He was sued by investors. Mocked by the people who built cars before him. His childhood heroes, the astronauts who inspired him, testified against his company to Congress. The Cybertruck window shattered on live stage in front of the world. He overpaid for Twitter by his own admission and watched its value collapse. He was beaten unconscious as a child and thrown down a flight of stairs. He has said he goes to sleep alone and it kills him. He failed in public, over and over, for thirty years. He is the richest man in the history of the world. The difference was never the absence of failure. It was the refusal to stop after it.

  @ZaidJilani This isn’t inefficiency, it’s the market doing exactly its job. It rewards people who create, innovate, and blow up the status quo. The difference? Everyone else on that list disrupted one industry and coasted. Musk did it three times: PayPal, Tesla, SpaceX. Payments, autos, aerospace — all flipped. The market isn’t broken for paying up on the rarest thing in business: proving it wasn’t luck. Calling that ‘dystopia’ is just resentment wearing an economics costume.

  @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.

  NOTIME (@nielsyl) reported 38 minutes ago

  Dear Elon, Congratulations! You finally hit that $1 trillion mark. That is a truly absurd amount of money I’m pretty sure the human brain isn't even wired to comprehend that many zeros. Since you’ve officially broken the scale, I have a modest proposal: why not celebrate this historic achievement by making a random person-me—a billionaire? I know, I know, "tax implications" and "fiduciary responsibility." But imagine the absolute chaos and hilarity of the headline: "Elon Musk Gifts Random Person $1B Just Because He Could." It would be the ultimate flex. Plus, you’d still have $999 billion left over, which I’m told is still technically "a lot." I’m currently busy trying to make my PayPal work more efficiently, and having an extra billion in there might just be the technical solution I need to finally get everything running smoothly. Consider it an investment in the most entertaining social experiment of the century. Best.

  @avataram Did you personally invest in PayPal in that time, or was it the fund's money? Still hold them RSUs - worth down from recent highs, but "this kaali perungaya dappa has lost original aroma"!

  @beffybadbelly You can be mad at him for how he chooses to spend his money. I have no problems with that. I'd sign the giving pledge if I was in his shoes. But vilifying someone who's changed the world just because he was successful isn't logical. Millenia of economic theory and case proves we have the right incentive structure for growth. Without him, you wouldn't have paypal, electric cars, space internet, blind people seeing, no traffic in Vegas tunnels, and myriad other things. I'm OK he's a trillionaire.

  @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.

  @adammocklerr So, Close down PayPal. Close Down Tesla. Close down Space-X. Close Down Star-link. Stop innovation. Stop inventions. That is your goal? Or you just want Musk to stop working at all? Or, you are a Communist?

  @d4m1n Distribution. the whole point of the SaaS would be to hit a $,$$$ MRR within 30 days Anyone can make a working slop app, but getting paid users is the real benchmark. You only need to create a stripe and PayPal account and embed a simple payment form. Alongside firebase for auth + a security analysis after the setup into a basic .env you could one shot the whole thing incl. launch tweet/product hunt/mass dm I have lots of basic loops that do SEO/Hubspot/Client retention on autopilot with no issue tbh

  Your personal wealth is around an estimated $8-12 million. You are rich. You are "the problem". I'm going to send you my PayPal info and I expect you to send me a pretty substantial transfer, otherwise you're also a greedy selfish rich demon.
