Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, and the rest of the
PayPal Mafia are now household names who\'ve reshaped technology, automobiles, space travel, and politics. But two decades ago, they were unsung entrepreneurs attempting to launch a Silicon Valley startup against overwhelming odds. That improbable journey started in the shadow of Stanford University, when Thiel met Max Levchin, a Ukrainian engineer who recently moved to California.

Our clashes with the credit card associations, the banking lobby, state regulators, foreign Mafioso, and litigation-happy lawyers significantly increased as the company\'s profile grew, writes
Jackson, adding that the initial public offering that was meant to strengthen PayPal with an infusion of cash ironically attracted a rogue\'s gallery of foes instead. The modern business environment, Jackson concludes, turned out to be more hostile than even our fiercest competitor. This somber warning-that regulators, lawyers, and lobbyists threaten to underm
