Erasmus "Phase Shift" Belial (@ErasmusBelial) reported@horseshoecraben @goatcel or use it to offset the purchases you need to make, like gas, amazon bs etc. its either that or dabble in crypto. you gotta handle taxes how you see fit with any route you take, but yeah, keeping any significant amount of money in paypal is a terrible idea.

Gojo Maduro 諸葛亮 (@kungfurykong) reportedWhat Would Happen If Elon Musk Had Been Born in China? This is Mr. Ma, a barbecue chef at a restaurant in Tongchuan, Shaanxi Province. Because he looks strikingly like Elon Musk, a customer took his photo and uploaded it online, unexpectedly making him famous. He said that over the past two days, more than a dozen people have asked to take photos with him, while several others have approached him about possible collaborations. In fact, there have long been many discussions on the Chinese internet about what would have happened if Elon Musk had been born in China. One fairly representative article argued: "Let us suppose that, in 1971, twenty people with the same potential as Elon Musk were also born into ordinary Chinese families. "If they were fascinated by science and technology, the most they could probably do would be to join an extracurricular hobby group at a children’s activity center and build model airplanes. "In 1981, a computer cost tens of thousands of yuan. There was absolutely no way an ordinary Chinese family could afford one. "It would not be until the 1990s that they might finally get access to computers in a school computer lab, where one hour of use could cost about as much as an entire meal. "But students had to attend morning reading sessions every day and evening self-study classes at night. Where would they find the time to learn programming? "Besides, what if they spent all their time messing around with these 'useless' things and then failed to get into a good university? 'A mild-tempered father might patiently lecture them: 'Focus on your studies. Stop wasting your time on improper pursuits,' until they finally gave up on their own. "A bad-tempered father would simply confiscate everything. If they dared to argue, he would grab something and beat them. "From the first grade onward, they would have to devote all their energy to exam scores. Otherwise, they might not even make it into university. "By the time they finally entered college, all their sharp edges would have been worn away. They would have been molded into conformity and would have had almost no chance of becoming another Elon Musk. "If Musk had been placed in China, his life would probably have followed a path like this: "No one would have paid for software like Zip2, an online city-guide and business-directory platform. Lenovo would not have acquired it. It would have ended up like Zhang Xiaolong’s Foxmail: users would simply use pirated copies. "Have you ever seen Lenovo pay a huge amount of money to acquire independently developed personal-computer software? "So Musk would probably have starved to death at the age of 28 and gone to meet Karl Marx. "Suppose he somehow survived until the age of 31 and developed a payment platform like PayPal. The major Chinese internet giants—Baidu, Alibaba, and Tencent—could simply copy it. Why would anyone pay to acquire his company? "Have you ever seen BAT pay an enormous price to acquire an internet application developed by an individual entrepreneur? Investors would know that his product would be copied, so they would refuse to fund him from the very beginning. This time, he would definitely be finished. "Even if BAT did not copy him, could Musk manage the necessary connections? Could he obtain the required licenses? "Those are not things an ordinary person can easily secure, as everyone understands. "Operating such a business without a license would be illegal. In the best-case scenario, the authorities would order him to shut down. In a more serious case, they might accuse him of illegal fundraising, and Musk could end up spending the rest of his life in prison. "Even if he successfully built PayPal and had more than a billion yuan in his hands, could he establish a company like SpaceX? "That is the domain of the state-owned aerospace corporations. "Even if he somehow obtained permission to enter the industry, no one would provide him with the necessary components or support. "If one private individual were allowed to accomplish all that, where would it leave the millions of people working within China’s state aerospace system? "I guess that, had Musk been born in China, the best possible outcome for him would have resembled Zhang Xiaolong’s career path: working for someone who had the connections and qualifications needed to obtain the necessary licenses."

DragonKnight15 (@DragonKnight_15) reported@hikariviny I hate to disappoint you but this also affects your bank account. Someone else told me they had this problem so badly that Paypal was able to BLOCK his bank account. He had to fix that problem and that's a nightmare. Don't defend Paypal.

Light Artist - COMM CLOSE (@Light_artist) reported@Zmeinir @ScruffyTurtles That said, I’ve never sent artwork via PayPal (out of pure ignorance); I send it by email or via a temporary link, especially if it involves N5FW or saucy illustration, since Google can be triggered just like PayPal and shut down your email account.

Doug Woolley - Payments '𝕏'pert (@dougpayments) reportedDon’t just take it from me. Take it from @IMJustinBrooke He processed millions through Stripe for 7 years before being shut down without warning This is the risk of putting your entire payment processing relationship inside a PayFac or aggregated payment platform like Stripe, PayPal, Whop or Shopify Payments. Everything can work perfectly for years - until an automated risk decision shuts down the account, holds the funds or limits processing. Authorize(dot)Net is just one payment gateway, We work with several depending on the merchant’s business model, volume, risk profile, etc An optimized payment processing setup can also include multiple MIDs when appropriate, intelligent routing and orchestration, fraud controls and chargeback mitigation. The worst time to learn how your payments are structured is during a hold or shutdown. The best time to evaluate your payment processor, and overall payment stack is while everything is in good standing - Happy to take a dive into anyone's, shoot me a message or checkout our website
