I wonder if those PhDs are ready to suffer so much, why don't they work at SV companies where they can get free sushi + 6 figure salary and lots of interesting problems to solve.

Why these people are so hung up on getting PhD title.

Or any not become a YouTuber?

We can easily see that ElectroBoom on YouTube is more respected in the world than any other person holding PhD in Electrical Engineering.

I was super depressed until I discovered Ketamine, so I took my credit card and started getting Ketamine sessions which costs roughly 600 dollar per session.

I was shocked to see how much it benefited me for chump change sum of 600 dollars.

SSRIs never worked for me to begin with. I did many other illegal drugs like Amphetamine, Weeds, Meta amphetamine they helped but only in short term.

Silicone valley has been expanding since long time as more capital, human resources and companies come to SV.

So no, it's not correct to say SF is not part of silicone valley, it has started to become part of silicone valley now.

I don't even care what other Googlers are doing but it's the best time to deliver performance when Google is in turnmoil, I'll be securing trust of stakeholders and promotion.

I'll work overtime and crank more code, while others try to debate their moral stance

Always think about how you can benefit from a particular scenario

My friend does it, he operates a company (In NYC) which accepts the payments and he then wires the creators after holding back X% in reserve fee less the service fee

He's been doing it for a while (4 years) now averaging 500K per month in payments.

All his customers are people from third world or second world countries like Russia, India etc...where accepting international credit cards is bit difficult and probably has more fees.

He raises invoices in his own company name then the creators are written off as independent contractors.

So creators will need to do their own taxes.

He's using Braintree and Stripe and load balancing between these two.

He's one man show and knows nothing about law/accounting.

He also got one accountant who is helping him calculate and make financial reports

It can be done I guess
