Elon Musk Launching TwitterPay as AFFIRM Collapses (UGLY!).
FULL TRANSCRIPT
hey you want a blue check mark on
Twitter you can literally I get it now
not an ad for Twitter but if you go
under Twitter Twitter blue boom it's
there you pay 7.99 boom I'm seeing so
many people with verified check marks
right now and it's so funny because the
verified tab on Twitter where people
like if they type a response to you
where they like your post or something
and you get notifications when verified
people reply it's like blowing up right
now it's awesome like go get your blue
check mark But now let's get into the
topic of the video oh we've got a lot to
talk about in this one from Twitter pay
to Elon Musk selling shares of Tesla and
a firm Twitter pay could it be possible
could it be possible that at some point
in the near future you could buy meet
Kevin courses on Twitter using Twitter
pay and Twitter could process the
transaction rather than say Visa or
PayPal or teachable or stripe processing
the transaction and Twitter could
actually Harvest maybe a nice little one
and a half to two and a half percent fee
off of every single dollar well I guess
uh yeah I guess every single dollar that
somebody makes paying for amazing
courses on building your wealth or the
new business course for elite Hustlers
link down below the Black Friday coupon
code yes it's actually quite possible
take a look at what was just released
from the treasury Department that has to
do with Twitter and Elon you ready for
this
it's not this document but this is to
get you familiar look at this this is
the fincen uh it's a department within
the treasury uh and this is a
registration statement for payment
transmitters and look at this one here
is a payment transmitter application uh
and a renewal application in this case
for the Google payment Corp and they're
doing business as names so they're dbas
Google payments and Google pay so like
Apple pay Google pay right they process
the transaction so they take a small
little fee well look at what was just
filed folks what do we have here initial
registration
Twitter payments LLC no DBA yet but uh
you know what let's just for Giggles
fill this one in here 2 Twitter pay come
on what else would it be called tweet
pay twitpay I don't know anyway uh this
registration was just released here you
can see here on November 9th we have
this release out uh note that a
transmitter is not I wrote I wrote these
notes right here a transmitter is not a
bank it is a merchant payment processor
so again think affirm Apple pay Google
pay and uh these are companies that
clear payments and then they remit funds
to a merchant uh there's some other
definitions there are remittance rules
and then there are a lot of regulatory
rules that you have to follow regarding
this but it's really interesting because
it just shows that even though Elon Musk
has now laid off about half of the staff
at Twitter calling back some people who
are accidentally fired uh Elon moves
quickly I'm a really big fan of of
people like that who move quickly it's
just it's not that hard to file for an
LLC it's not that hard to do a DBA or a
trademark it's just not that hard these
are a lot of things we're going to be
talking about in the the elite Hustler's
course by the way which is pretty cool
comes with uh four times a month live
streams special live streams but also
Daily videos daily added lectures uh for
analyzing individuals businesses or
their entrepreneurial Endeavors but it's
just not
some of this stuff
I like the fact that Elon is in at
Twitter and is saying hey let's just
start getting the foundation set for
everything that we want we want to do
payments start the filing process now
because these application processes to
be money transmitter these are going to
take a while it just shows that the
initial intent is hey within the first
week set the foundations get rid of the
people we don't need if we fire too many
we could always call them back because
then you start seeing like what's
breaking oh you fired that person okay
we'll call them back that's actually not
a bad idea now that has led to a lot of
complaints for Elon Musk and literally
as I'm recording this video Elon Musk
just sent a tweet suggesting he is the
complaint hotline operator yes here it
is look at that uh 840 I'm filming this
at 8 43 complaint hotline operator
online please mention your complaints
below
living the dream anyway uh so
look we know that Elon Musk just sold a
nearly 20 million uh 20 million shares
of Tesla uh and we've seen a lot of pain
for Tesla stock over the last few days
which has led a lot of people wondering
like oh my gosh what's going on have
have the fundamentals broken no it's
it's Elon absorbing a lot of the
liquidity uh and that's unfortunate and
it's led to some pretty gnarly pain
which could contribute to retail
capitulation Bank of America mentioned
that last week retail and institutions
at least through Bank of America were
net sellers
yikes that's not great that's
capitulation uh and unfortunately with
this uh this election on ease and
uncertainty it's uh it's worse uh we're
getting worse it does make me want to
touch on a firm a little bit I have to
say I'm quite disappointed with a firm a
firm isn't being as transparent as they
should be this morning in our course
member live stream we analyzed what's
going on over at a firm and they compare
their total Network Revenue to last year
but then when you go to the last
quarter's earnings report they don't
break out the fourth quarter earnings uh
and this is technically q1 which is
super confusing but anyway they don't
break out the fourth quarter earnings so
I went back and just subtracted out Q3 2
and 1 from their annual numbers and look
what I found it looks like it looks like
a firm actually saw a network Revenue
decline by 6.5 percent quarter over
quarter no wonder the stock is
performing terribly because their
network is actually shrinking at the
same time they increase their marketing
spend year over year from 64 million
dollars to 164 million dollars that's
over a two and a half X increase in
marketing spend and on top of that folks
they have increased on average if you
divide the their annual operating uh
marketing spend for last year into
quarters this last quarter had roughly
24 percent higher advertising spend than
last quarter and in the quarters of last
year yet their revenue
declined quarter to quarter that's
really bad and now they're going to
compare to 2021 where we had really no
fears of a recession coming and they're
going to somehow suggest that loan loss
reserves are going to be exactly the
same as last year
I think they're smoking crack now this
I'm putting this here together with this
uh note about uh Twitter because you
know elon's wanted to get into Payment
Processing
but payment process I mean maybe maybe
it's just the time to start at the
bottom of the market right but um right
now Payment Processing uh just seems
like um yeah I guess something you want
to maybe lay the foundations for in a
recession and then kind of ride the wave
up but right now it seems like things
are more likely to be trending down in
the world of payments and payments
Revenue now the good news is a Twitter
payment system wouldn't really need
advertising uh at least you'd think much
like uh much like Tesla doesn't need
advertising although then again it'd
probably be good to spread the word with
advertising to Merchants and creators
who want to sell things so so there
would certainly be some expensive labor
involved in doing that but uh Payment
Systems right now I don't know uh
financially a firm complete disaster not
impressed at all with that earnings
report if anything I think some parts of
it were quite misleading uh and uh yeah
hey Elon maybe the time to do it is at
the bottom of the market but otherwise
other Payment Systems not happy about
right now again Elon probably says it
best when he just tweeted please note
that Twitter will do lots of dumb things
in the coming months we will keep what
works and change what doesn't
