I'll put a thousand
voice-verified
songs in their pocket, that sort of thing.
voice-verified
Why do you think it's important
voice-verified
Kind of highlight the other way.
voice-verified
You know, the visionary founder just sounds good.
voice-verified
What what would be an example of a kind of popular myth, but the the actual substance is something different?
voice-verified
What would be an example?
voice-verified
Isn't that how ebay also started?
voice-verified
Like wasn't the first thing like a Tez dispenser, but then wasn't it like weren't they also very niche at the beginning?
voice-verified
They were
voice-verified
Uh the PayPal story is kind of like this, right?
voice-verified
So you have Elon has his vision for X, and he's like, it's gonna do everything a bank does on the internet.
voice-verified
It's gonna be uh, you know, uh lending, it's gonna be mortgages, it's gonna be checking accounts, savings accounts.
voice-verified
That's what the vision was for that.
voice-verified
And then here was PayPal, this little tool for eBay sellers, you know, it's like this kind of the niche within the niche.
voice-verified
And he kind of resisted it actually for a little while.
voice-verified
And then they finally kind of gave in which like, well, that's what the users, that's where the demand is.
voice-verified
That's what the users want this war.
voice-verified
And like, of course, now PayPal can do a lot more than it did when it started, but it went after that very small market initially and finally rejected the founder vision idea uh going in.
voice-verified
yeah.
