  @HelpSupercard @2KSupport My web store checkout has been broken since Thursday. Filed a ticket, got ZERO responses, and you just sent me a satisfaction survey for a ticket you silently closed. PayPal works fine everywhere else. Please have a human look at my account.

  Caller (Jake): “I’m 16, and I make around $50,000 to $80,000 a month doing e-commerce. “My mom has no idea. “She’s very traditional, and I’m afraid she’ll shut it down if I tell her.” Dave Ramsey: “You’re making $50,000 a month at 16 years old?” Jake: “Yes, sir. “I run Shopify dropshipping stores, eBay arbitrage, and a bunch of online businesses. “I have a little over $300,000 sitting in a PayPal account because my mom is joint on my bank account.” Dave Ramsey: “So you’ve been doing this for four or five months?” Jake: “About eight months. The first few months were slow, and then it picked up really fast.” Dave Ramsey: “Your mother doesn’t know any of this?” Jake: “No. All the money is in PayPal because she’s joint on my bank account. “I want to tell her, but I know she’ll be very skeptical of what I’m doing. “She’s always told me she wants me to take a traditional path, and I’m worried she’ll put an end to it.”

  @BrillVFX I normally don’t make posts like this, but after giving this person more than enough time, patience, and opportunities to communicate with me, I feel like this needs to be made public. On July 8th, I paid him to create an intro for my team. We said deadline was 1 week. Its is now Aug 7,2026. After receiving the payment, he sent me 1-2 updates showing that he had started working on the project. That was essentially the only real progress/update I received. I didn’t rush him. I gave him roughly 1–2 weeks without bothering him because I understood that creative work takes time. After that period passed with no update, I reached out simply asking about the status of the intro. It then took him another week just to respond. When he finally responded, he explained that he was dealing with a situation involving his family problems. I completely respected that. I didn’t argue with him, pressure him, or immediately ask for my money back. I gave him additional time because I understood that real-life situations come before a project. Another week passed. I reached out again asking for an update. No response. From that point forward, I continued trying to contact him and no communication. At this point, an entire month has passed since I paid him, I still do not have the intro I paid for, and I have not received consistent communication regarding the project. Eventually, after repeatedly trying to handle this privately, I told him that if I continued receiving no response, I would have no choice but to make the situation public and pursue a refund through PayPal. I gave this situation every opportunity to be resolved privately before posting anything publicly. I was patient, I respected the personal circumstances he told me about, and I gave him significantly more time because of them. This post is not being made to send harassment toward anybody. I’m posting this to document my experience and warn other people who may consider purchasing work from him. Everything I’m stating here will be accompanied by screenshots so people can look at the timeline, messages, payment, and communication themselves and form their own opinion. I paid for a service on July 8th. I gave him weeks of patience and multiple opportunities to communicate with me. I still have not received what I paid for. At this point, based on my experience, I believe I was scammed. I have opened/pursued a dispute through PayPal to recover my money. I genuinely wanted to handle this privately, but there comes a point where ignoring a paying customer and failing to deliver what they purchased needs to be addressed. Receipts/screenshots below.

  Depends on tax compliance as well Opt for an MOR like paddle or lemon squeezy etc if you don't want to handle tax compliance or have global clients that tax compliance becomes complicated If tax compliance is not an issue, then opt for payment gateways like stripe if you have integration knowledge otherwise paypal

  @_balaji_km The thing thats worrying investors is not about Uber going out of business, its more like not growing the profits in coming years, similar to Netflix, Paypal etc. NFLX : 40% up in last 5 years (325Mn users, 100Bn watch hrs) PYPL : 80% down in last 5 years (TPV: $1.79Tn in CY25)

  Banks used to be heavyweight investments. Not so much anymore. Look at the last 138 days: XLF (Financials) is now behaving almost like XLU (Utilities) — slow, low-growth, defensive. Meanwhile fintech and crypto keep taking share: • Payment apps (PayPal, Venmo, Chime, X Money…) • Digital banking • DeFi / crypto rails • Even newer players moving into underwriting Traditional banks are losing the energy that used to make them cyclical leaders. Capital and growth are flowing elsewhere. The sector chart makes it pretty clear. Anyone else seeing this shift?

  @pbeisel Now you have my curiosity peaked. In the 80s I was trying to use a spinning reflecting lens to redirect a pulsed high intensity light beam to multiple targets. Nobody would tell us why, but it was during the Reagan, star wars era. I was toying with the idea of something similar to a daisy ball in a typewriter. Cooling was my biggest issue. I was not great with thermodynamics. I focused more on RF, as data transport without wires capitivated my attention. The late 90's on were my playground. Captive portal tech was where I shined. Chillispot, Linksys, Aironet, worked with Boingo, PayPal, Direcway and IP3 and Barricade. Sorry for the block Google. Published in Women's Business Journal a week before they did. Ouch! all that money on dark fiber. Fun times! Oops, distracted by the happy memories.

  the market runs 1,440 minutes a day. you run about 40. that's the entire problem. everything else you argue about on this app is downstream of that one number. so people build crutches. price alerts. a hundred goddamn price alerts. and a price alert is the dumbest possible version of your thesis, because it only knows one number. it can't tell a breakout from a wick that got bought back in nine seconds. the other camp sells you a bot. black box, a backtest curve going up and to the right, no way to ask it what the hell it's doing. most of it is a ******* screenshot business, not a trading business. TradeOS took the boring road instead. you type a sentence. plain English, no Pine Script, no repo to clone: "analyze QQQ 1D chart with trend analysis using moving average, MACD, squeeze momentum, ATR" that sentence becomes an agent: > it runs 24/7 > it watches the assets you named while you're asleep > it drops the verdict in your feed. "detected 3 trends." or nothing, which is also an answer. 13,000+ assets in reach. the agent doesn't get bored at minute 41. there's a second piece on there I think is underrated. an indicator market. one premarket S&P model has 19,347 subscribers on it. you can rent someone else's edge instead of rebuilding it from scratch, or publish yours and let other people pay for it. that's a real market, not a Discord with a paywall. now the part almost nobody clicks on. @TradeOS_ai is built on @verona_dev. Verona doesn't rent them blockspace. Verona earns a share of what the app earns. read that twice, because it inverts the usual deal. every other chain wants your gas and a logo in their ecosystem deck. Verona only gets paid when the app on top of it gets paid. that changes who they let build. a landlord takes any tenant. a partner does diligence. and look at who picked those rails. teams that moved money at eBay, PayPal, ByteDance, American Express. those people shipped payment infrastructure at a scale where a bad rail costs real money and somebody's job. they don't pick rails for the vibes. that's the signal I'd weigh, honestly. not the roadmap. the choice.
