Giammatteo source

[edit]

This claim:

for one year before dropping out initially to support his family by working at a bank

is cited to "Uneducated" by Giacomo Giammatteo. I looked it up, and it's literally a one-liner in a long list at the end of the book. Here's the complete information on Marcus:

David Marcus, founder of mobile payment company Zong, CEO of PayPal. He dropped out of the University of Geneva to work at a bank to help support his family.

There's no sourcing information, no detail, no provenance for this information. Is there any better source for the claim? - David Gerard (talk) 12:02, 17 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

OK, this might be better, at least it's Marcus saying it - David Gerard (talk) 20:38, 18 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
