Could not disagree more with your assessments and opinions. But the absolute worse is horrendous and outright insulting fees it charges pretty much for EVERYTHING. And of course that Thiel and Musk are/were involved... Lol
I concur. PayPal is far from cheap on fees, nor on FX rate. Only reason I use it is when I am forced to by using eBay.
Apple is only interested in businesses that leverage their existing infrastructure (iPhone/iPad, iTunes, iTunes, user base) and can charge a premium price. Hard to see how PayPal can charge a premium price with so much competition.
Thank you guys for answering. I really don't know the true workings of so many tech companies. I owned stock in REDHAT Software (before being bought out by IBM). In my beginning computer class in college, we got into BASIC...With a little bit of FORTRAN and COBOLT!! So I study a little...Buy some Microsoft here...Some Apple there. Try and go for industry leaders who are holding market share (REDHAT...Open source). Also why I bought Paypal. But I also own some QQQ...Just to make sure up and comers are put in and laggers are dropped. Instead of buying Tesla and figuring out where it's going...I'll buy Panasonic who makes the batteries for Tesla and make other thing. They can also make electric batteries for other car makers!! I can never figure out who will be the winners and losers in tech. It's more like who is gaining market share and holding on to it...Buy, then watch carefully!! Was thinking of this true scene from below (IBM vs Microsoft). Just me... PS I hear RadioShack is an up and comer...
