“ Very few of the top performers at the company had any prior experience with payments, and many of the best employees had little or no prior background building Internet products. „
from an article with a collection of answers to the question: Why did so many successful entrepreneurs and startups come out of PayPal?

Very few of the top performers at the company had any prior experience with payments, and many of the best employees had little or no prior background building Internet products.
