How do they get credit cards?
Because the years between jobs where my income is $1, I can’t open bank accounts. And the companies don’t care that I have over 1 million dollars in the bank. The algorithms just see the dollar income and DENY.

I call. The person just says “computer says no”

They’d just call or more likely text the ceo of the bank. Then their respective teams would figure out the rest.

Often they don’t actually use the cards themselves, paying is the job of an assistant so its more likely to be some sort of company credit card.
Heres Rishi Sunak completely failing to get how contactless works, literately the simplest process to pay for something, you don’t need a PIN or put the card into the machine, you just tap the card reader. Its like hes never paid for anything in his life before.

People who have the money to do these tricks also have financial advisers and lawyers and they just call up the card companies and get special cards. They do not have to follow the same rules that you do.
