  A $500,000 check written in 2004 turned into more than a billion dollars by 2012. The same man watched his own hedge fund fall from $7 billion to about $350 million. His name is Peter Thiel. He is 58. He co-founded PayPal in 1998 and sold it to eBay in 2002 for $1.5 billion. Two years later he became the first outside investor in Facebook, taking 10.2 percent for half a million dollars. Then Clarium Capital, his global macro fund, peaked above $8 billion in 2008 and posted three straight losing years. Investors who stayed lost 65 percent from the peak. By 2011 the fund held roughly $350 million. So the man teaching you how to think about competition has been on both sides of being wrong in public. The framework fits on a napkin. Perfect competition destroys profit, so build the thing nobody else can offer. Start with a market small enough to dominate, then widen. Look for proprietary technology ten times better than the alternative, network effects, scale economics, and a brand people ask for by name. Value the last mover, not the first. "Competition is for losers." That is the title he put on a Wall Street Journal essay in September 2014, adapted from the book he wrote out of a Stanford class he taught in 2012. A student named Blake Masters posted his notes from that class online for free, and the notes went viral before the book existed. at the board it's simple. one company sold for $1.5 billion, one check compounded two thousand times, one fund down ninety-five percent from peak assets. the same brain produced all three. no magic. concentration into an idea almost nobody shares, held long enough to be measured. here is where it lines up with every founder reading this. you already know your product is a slightly better version of something people already buy. you will still call the crowded market validation, raise on comparables, and describe five competitors as proof of demand in the same deck where you claim to be different. the class notes are free. the essay is free. this talk is free. what nobody can sell you is the willingness to answer his actual question in writing: what important truth do very few people agree with you on. That willingness is the edge, and it costs an honest page, not another pitch deck.

  @004Nubi I had to file a dispute on PayPal for a commission from a popular artist for not doing it, so she decided to try to revoke my rights to a concept art she made for free reworking my elements 🤨 Crazy bc she has this problem too

  @metacolt1 @CardPurchaser Ebay barely protect sellers at all. You can just say it doesnt work, is broken with minimal evidence and they will side with you instantly, worse if you used paypal.

  @PokemonRestocks jic it was the way PayPal works while only having it linked to an account rather than having funds in it, so if you can get your card to work directly or if you already have funds in your PayPal acc, it should be a non-issue. It's just a very personal L. Hope it helps, tho!

  Elon Musk built PayPal without that Ebay was ******. He gave the thrifty a way to recycle shite. He gave them green electric engines. Hes fixing their problems. He is idealogy wise on the same level as them. Yet they see him as hitler? Who was... ... and ... .
