  Thiel started a Roth IRA with a contribution of less than $2,000 in 1999  and paid $0.001 per share of PayPal and bought 1.7 million shares — a large stake for just $1,700 , then let it ride inside the tax shelter until it held $5 billion, spread across 96 subaccounts, by 2019 , all of it withdrawable tax-free at 59½. That’s the most valuable Roth IRA in America. And that — that — is the dark lord’s masterstroke. Sit with it. The antichrist cannot have the most expensive Roth IRA. It is a category error. You are supposed to be the inhuman thing that answers to no one, the man who read Girard and decided to be the scapegoat machine, and your actual signature move is the one every community-college finance professor scrawls on the whiteboard and calls genius: max the Roth, buy early, never sell, die untaxed. He did the thing in the personal-finance subreddit. The secret is that there’s no secret.  The prince of darkness ran the exact play a dentist in Tulsa runs, just with founder shares and a straight face. The kitchen had him slotted for the abyss and he turned in a tax-optimized retirement account at 59-and-a-half. Genuinely disappointed. You had the whole apocalypse queued up, Peter, and you botched it on the 401k. Some Beast — diversified, sheltered, and patiently waiting for the penalty-free withdrawal window.

  You may have heard the story last month that Pope Leo’s bank hung up on him, mistaking him for a prank caller. Today there was no such problem. At the Vatican, Treasurer Frerichs personally presented Pope Leo with an $8.65 I-Cash claim, the proceeds of an abandoned PayPal account he left behind in Illinois. "I am happy to send $8.65 to the world's most famous White Sox fan" Frerichs said.

  The hardest part of agentic commerce isn't the payment. It's the trust. At Consensus in Miami, our VP & Head of BD @lei_lei0904 joined @csuitepodcast to break down what it actually takes to let AI agents transact safely. ▷ Agentic commerce is already here: x402 has crossed 100M transactions, and the space went from ~20 companies in 2024 to 500+ today, with Google, Stripe, PayPal, Amazon and Shopify all moving in. ▷ Trust can't be an afterthought: compliance and security have to be built in from day one, at the infrastructure level. That's what Agent Passport does, spend within the limits you set, with a kill switch you control. ▷ Payments have to move at machine speed: agent transactions are often API calls worth cents, where traditional rails charging 3% simply break. Building the trust layer for the agent economy. 🪁

  Ramp just raised $750M at a $44B valuation, which is roughly 44x their current revenue. I'm impressed by the level of conviction Ramp has been able to instill in the investors that have poured roughly $3B into the company since 2019, including, most recently, the Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan. Personally, I'm not sure I get it. I admire Ramp. It's a super smart company that has a genuinely strong handle on AI and is growing and shipping product extremely fast, but $44B? That's more than PayPal, which currently has a market cap of $38B on $32B in revenue. "Fine," you might say. "PayPal is an absolute mess. Ramp should be worth more than it." OK, what about Fifth Third? It has almost $300B in assets and generated $9B in revenue last year (good for $2.5B in profit). Its market cap is currently the same as Ramp's valuation. "Yes," you acknowledge. "Fifth Third is a better-run company than PayPal, but it's a bank. It's slow. Looking forward, its growth trajectory is very modest. Ramp's growth potential makes it a much better bet." So, what about Affirm? Affirm is just as smart as Ramp. It has just as strong a handle on AI as Ramp. It's profitable and on track to generate more than $4B in revenue this year, which would be a 33% increase year-over-year. Affirm's market cap is currently $22B, half of what Ramp was just valued at. That just doesn't seem correct. Something is being mispriced and my hunch is that it's Ramp. But we won't know that until it goes public, if it ever does.

  @MrKimmKE These sites are legit but slow. $5.47 from 8 surveys means ∼$0.68 per survey. Most people make $20-$50/month max if they’re active daily. Payout is usually via PayPal, PayPal, or gift cards once you hit $5-$10 minimum.

  Stop leaving your cash inside PayPal. A brand I work with had 147,000 dollars sitting in their PayPal balance. Not swept to the bank. Just sitting there. That is not a buffer. That is a risk. Payment processors freeze balances without warning, especially when volume spikes during a sale. The money you cannot move is not working capital. It is exposure. Set up a daily automatic transfer to your operating account. Your cash should sit where you control it, not where a platform does. A frozen balance during your biggest sales week is a problem you can prevent today.

  📱 PHONE REPAIR Borrowed £80 to fix your cracked screen. Create an IOU immediately. Settle in your own time with Solana, PayPal or bank transfer. An honourable friend acknowledges what he owes first. 🤝

  @AsianDawn4 Even if there was maximum damage, you're talking about 13% of the US population. The damage wouldn't be impactful as Asians are flushed with cash. Plus there are videos of these chicks trying to find and shame patrons of the business. Problem with that is, there is a monopoly over things like nail salons, and there's little choice selection. The business choice selection thing has a time decay. I see people starting to go for Bud Light again, they're using Paypal again.

  The problem? Traditional payment processors like Stripe and PayPal instantly ban these websites. If you try to buy experimental muscle-building peptides or unapproved skin-bronzing chemicals with a Visa card, the transaction gets blocked. Enter Crypto.
