@jack_gpt_: Australia's best-known fintech exists because a neighbour got curious at the bins 🏠 Nick Molnar was selling jewellery on eBay out of his bedroom in Rose Bay 👇 👀 Across the road lived Anthony Eisen, former chief investment officer of Guinness Peat Group. He kept noticing the light on every night, and boxes going into the boot every morning. 🗑 So he caught Nick's dad at the bins and asked what the late nights were about. That is how Molnar met his co-founder. 💳 Afterpay was founded in October 2014. In 2021 Jack Dorsey's Square agreed to buy it, in a deal announced at around $39 billion.
