In episode number 2 of the Fintech OG series, we talk with Max Levchin, Co-Founder and CEO of PayPal, Affirm, and a number of other companies (Yelp, for instance) and Jackie Reses, best known for her time at Square helping Jack Dorsey's payments company get a banking license. Currently, she's the CEO of Lead Bank and sits on a number of company boards, including NuBank. These two dove into how they got into fintech, their personal ups and downs (find out what sent Max to the floor in the early days of Affirm), and what they expect the biggest innovations to be over the next decade.
