Hello-World-2024 on June 3, 2025 7:25 pm Always surprising to see that MasterCard is close to Visa in terms of revenue.
skurvecchio on June 3, 2025 7:27 pm That operating margin… Other companies would kill to have that kind of ratio.
TrygveRS on June 3, 2025 7:29 pm Crazy how little these behemoth companies tax compared to their revenue.

Visa paying more for lawyers than taxes is disgusting
That operating margin… Other companies would kill to have that kind of ratio.
Profit $5.4B and tax $0.9B
That’s a 17% tax rate
FUCK MY ASS
