At this point make a bank Steam. Call it 'The Bank of Gabe' and it'll be a multi billion dollar bank by May.
The Kosher Government of America made that impossible.
I know you’re (probably) kidding but US govt regulations have swamped the industry so badly that basically it’s impossible to start a new bank.

That's not an accident.
Thanks Obama… I’m being serious not ironic lol
Exactly. Obama destroyed the majority of independent banks with the (majorly) excessive red tape needed to operate.
Fucking commies.
Old Glory just did it.
Check out who the board of directors are.

OooOOoo.
Thanks for that. Imma look into them. I might switch out
They've been great, been using them for a couple years now. I've called them a handful of times and you ALWAYS get an American human immediately.
No reason to have just one bank.
Thanks for posting the link!
Holy shit that's great news.
They've been around a couple-three years now and I have ZERO complaints.
.... And you'll never struggle to understand customer service if you need to call them for something.
How about a credit union, then? They aren't part of the FDIC, so don't have to worry about those regulations. He can name it Freeman Federal Credit Union.
might get in trouble with the federal one... even thought the freakin federal reserve exists.
Nah, having federal in the name just means it's federally chartered.
fair. if gabe can pull that hat trick off imagine all the salt. they would be replaying that one salt mine clip on repeat in their offices...
The world would declare actual, not euphemistic, war on Washington state well before then.
You can buy gift funds.
I think i'm going to do that.
The store bought steam cards used to be one of the more common ways to pay. They still exist I'm quite sure, I just haven't bought anything from steam in years.
Years from now someone on Joe Rogan will explain how everything was part of a coordinated effort by a cabal of government agencies, NGOs and corporate executives.
all awnsering to the same t[Removed due to Rule 16]
Alex Jones is right
Well... he's right up until the whole inter-dimensional, shape-shifting, blood-drinking, baby-eating alien/demons part.
BUT BEFORE THAT HE'S SPOT ON AT LEAST 50% OF THE TIME.
I don't know, the baby eating part considering the shit they have hanging in their living rooms and the spirit cooking I would not put it past them.
Operation Choke Point never ended.
They were only getting away with this up til bow because they were going after individual dissidents' bread, not everybody's circuses.
They've restricted payments in all currencies...except anywhere using American, Canadian, or Australian dollars, the Brit and Euro money, and the yen? I don't know what they're playing at, but this doesn't look like part of the censorship sweep. It'd have to be an incredibly convoluted scheme if it was.
That's because it's not actually PayPal that pulled the plug, but the bank that PayPal uses for most currencies which has refused to process Steam payments. They use different banks for the currencies that are still supported.
PayPal sucks. Details at 11, only on NGGR 13 News.
Reporting 54% of the news in 13% of the time.
3.5% (Black men under 35) commit 50% of all violent crimes
That channel is dangerous
Guys hear me out… what if… now, this is from before some of you were born but… should we go back to buying money orders and mailing them to steam!?
Sorry, I’m not an illegal immigrant.
Yeah, store bought steam cards, which is the only way I have ever used steam, are way the hell easier than that.
Of course the stores, or more likely the card printing company, could pull the cards, but that seems a lot hard to pull of than a few financial institutions.
Eastern Union
It's called Union Pay.
Will Walmart let me do that?
The good news is that paypal is not critical for steam.
i know it sounds outlandish but do steam really need paypal? they're technically ARE their own banks the way you can buy steam redeemable cards (SAARR PLZ)
if anything, that's basically what everyone should do incase Visa and masterkike decides to fuck with their business.
Reminder that any fund you have on Paypal can be frozen for any and no reason and taken away from you on Paypal's whim.
Everyone involved with "thegamer dot com" are contemptable faggots.
Light 'em up.
Waiting on Gabe to have his people help him get his armor on so he can ride out like King Theoden.
