  I am $24,000 in debt at 18 years old and I need help. This isn’t any gimmick, i’ve made some big poor choices at a young age and I have and am still learning through but the monetary number itself is a mountain for me to get rid of in my current situation as i’m heading into college with this on my shoulders. I already know I need to work my *** off and this is my own problem that will take a long time, but truthfully this **** is hard. Im putting this out there for anyone who has the ability/want, to help me out a little no matter what the ammount is, aswell as if you want it returned to you, we can connect and talk about a casual repayment plan. Cashapp: $Sstonuttt For zelle,venmo, paypal, crpyto, or any other option dm me please

  PayPal paid approximately $4 billion for Honey in 2020. The browser extension had 17 million monthly users, worked across roughly 30,000 retailers and gave PayPal something it normally reached only at the end of a purchase: influence over what happened before checkout. That position created Honey’s value. Shoppers installed it for discounts, merchants supplied offers to reach those shoppers, and Honey earned money through affiliate attribution when a purchase occurred. Then MegaLag alleged that Honey sometimes replaced creators’ affiliate tracking with its own. PayPal said Honey followed industry practices including last-click attribution, but the explanation did little to stop the reaction. Honey has reportedly fallen from more than 20 million Chrome users to 12 million. Merchant relationships declined from roughly 35,000 to just over 28,000, while its coupon database fell from about 90,000 codes to 50,000. This is what happens when a marketplace flywheel reverses. Fewer users make the product less valuable to merchants. Fewer merchants mean fewer working offers. A weaker product gives the remaining users another reason to uninstall it. Affiliate networks added pressure. Rakuten removed Honey before later reinstating it with new protections, while Impact and Awin also took action. A creator lawsuit has survived PayPal’s attempt to dismiss it, although that is not a finding that PayPal is liable. PayPal bought Honey because it occupied a valuable point between product discovery and payment. The same position became dangerous once shoppers and creators began questioning whose interests the extension served. A $4 billion distribution advantage turned into a trust problem sitting inside 12 million browsers.

  Paypal shareholders have ZERO economic incentive to engage in buyout discussions with Stripe/Advent below $110/ share. Rejecting them would in fact open the door for the most bullish case: the acceleration of $PYPL. Intrinsic Value growth over the next 12 months. Here is the math: •Paypal rejects Stripe/Advent offer below shareholder acceptable value of $110 per share. Stock drops back down to $50. •Paypal continues to execute buybacks at current pace of $6 billion per annum. Takes out roughly 120 million shares. The lower the stock goes the more powerful buybacks become. Since the company is a cashflow machine that creates a flywheel by which market pessimism increases Intrinsic Value per share. This is not theoretical, management has already demonstrated they are willing to do this, buying back 67MM shares at $44.99 in 1H 2026. •Management’s turnaround plan continues at current pace, no heroics just plain boring. Continue executing shift into financial services, begin realizing already earmarked cost savings. They deliver $6.20 EPS, continue generating $6 billion in FCF. At 13x that puts the company share price at $80.6 in 12 months. •Add a $25 control premium to that for any buyer that appears then and Paypal shareholders are at $105/ share. And this does not take into account any additional buybacks or business growth after year 1. •$110 is the fair buyout price for Stripe/Advent to pay now for Paypal shareholders to relinquish a bright future. •We know Advent cannot pay that because their PE math begins to fall apart. Stripe needs to go solo or find better financing if it does not want to miss this strategic opportunity. Paypal Shareholders do not support selling the company below intrinsic value and Paypal shareholders should not be asked to subsidize Advent’s return requirements.

  @burned_biscuitt @Rocketyyyy @HYPEX There was actually a PayPal payment glitch when Arknights: Endfield launched back in January. Some players were charged for purchases they didn’t make because PayPal transactions were incorrectly matched, and around 1,800 players were affected.

  @Horsetorque Mate just tried to buy your Rosehill form just to see what its like and paypal wouldn't process it. Maybe a glitch somewhere. I buy a lot through PayPal normally so it should work.

  @TonyClimate @eBay Had same problem. My item didn’t show up. I used PayPal for the purchase and they did all the heavy lifting once I knew it was a scam. They contacted the seller and got no response. Couple weeks later I had my funds back in my account.

  I need to stress that this is NOT Anti-X on my part. This is constructive criticism: this is clearly something that's broken (another follow of mine is getting almost all of her posts blurred, including a static photo of a kitten). And I'm currently going to have to ask PayPal Credit for a refunds on an xAI Supergrok that has been being billed two months after I canceled it. It's not unreasonable to ask for guarantees of safety and to fix demonstrable failures that could block access to private property before committing our money to you, even in an app we like and yse daily.

  @chelleyourself . What applies here are no less than 50 long-form investigative journalism articles of around 4,000 words each, at least most of which are reflected on my timeline right here and then over at my Substack spot. If you click on the link in my Bio it takes you right there. I had all those artkcles on my timeline in full but no one was supporting my efforts so I took them all off and moved them over to Substack behind a paywall. Whoever critiqued them said they were great but that was just a handful of people along the way. The engagement they got was demoralizing so I basically stopped leaving them on here. I still make them available for free here, usually for 24 hours before removing them but I might just stop doing that too, because it's all just steadily gone downhill to nothing. The critical turn came when I produced a series of articles targeting the Paypal Mafia and Elon Musk directly, and was also focusing on what amounts to organized crime activities being carried out in the White House, such as, "The Doge Scam" and "The Pardons Racket". After that I found myself locked in a vault, with my posts getting like 30-120 impressions max and close to zero engagement. They've been pulling all kinds of other ***** tricks too... I wrote a lot about it... some articles, mostly just smaller pieces, just about all of which I've dumped off my timeline since then. At one point I was just going to abandon this enterprise completely, whwereupon I went on a jag and dumped like 2,000 posts -- or more -- off the timeline. My goal was to just have a neat column of article ads redirecting interested parties over to Substack, but at the end of all that I just kept going, but definitely throttled down considerably. I don't know if you remember me... We crossed paths when I first got on here, and you and Subi-Doo gave me my first little leg up... I think at that point I had 0, then 5, then 40, then 100 followers. Then I joined SmokeFleet, as Gina Lola Brigida, -- that was good for 1,000 followers -- but eventually I reverted back to my own identity for what should be obvious reasons, considering I am in fact an author, and a journalist, and my name is basically my brand. Things went downhill drastically when I did, though, and have never really been the same since then. It's basically just gone downhill to nothing, it's just been awful. A lot of people have made me aware over time that the platform's been actively rigging the game against me, and I've seen -- and documented -- a lot of underhanded stuff myself. I don't know really what to do about any of that. I don't see that there's much you can do. I've seen what they can do if they want to amplify your voice. And I've seen what they can do if they determine they don't want you getting your message out. The difference between the two is breathtaking. Good to see you again, it's been awhile. What's going on with you? .
