You're a life saver

[@trevornelson7144]

great video so far. might I suggest you look into adding the annotate gem to your projects? Provides all of the columns at the top of model files, factory files in comment form. much easier than digging into the model on rails c

[@Webcrunch]

I use this in a lot of my projects. Love it!

[@EnjoytheMents]

[@DaveyonMayne-ok]

Im curious as to why you'd need the Stripe customer_id on both subscriptions and users table.
