The truth is I don’t really like the world of plastic money: the great chip-and-pin double act of modern payment. I prefer cash. I don’t like the idea of some distant clerk nodding each time I make a card purchase and quietly adding to my ‘consumer profile.’ I’m anti all cards.
There are many, many ways that we can obtain payment for the wall from our friends to the south.

You don’t know what a rough crowd is. If all I have to do is go make people laugh, that’s nothing. Let me tell you what a tough crowd is. A tough crowd is going to a morning service and you got six people there and you gotta pat your house payment. That’s a tough crowd.
My manager has a car payment, so I work every night.

When I was a student in Kazakhstan University, I did not have access to any research papers. These papers I needed for my research project. Payment of 32 dollars is just insane when you need to skim or read tens or hundreds of these papers to do research. I obtained these papers by pirating them.
Stripe is building payment infrastructure for the Web, so we make it easy to accept credit cards online. Before Stripe, the way you’d do this is using the legacy banking structure. It was slow, it was complex, it was expensive. It had this very chilling effect on e-commerce.

Representing the payment graph is huge opportunity and something no other company can do.
