On #WorldEmojiDay, tell me: what is your favourite emoji? This is a question I actually ask in interviews!

IMO, emojis are how we express ourselves and you can learn a lot about a candidate by their answer to that question. Insightful read in @HarvardBiz: https://t.co/hASVi1cyDW

My dad's fierce and unwavering kindness reminds me every day of my core values and his work ethic is something I've tried to replicate my whole career.

Who was your mentor growing up?

DYK only 50% of LGBTQ adults & 64% of LGBTQ couples own their own homes?

Historically, investing has been reserved for an exclusive, heteronormative group while locking others out. How can we fix this inclusivity crisis?

What does your ideal workplace look like?

My #top3 essential aspects of a perfectly productive space are:

☀️ Natural light
☕ Great coffee close by
🎵 A good Lo-Fi music playlist (my squad always knows when I'm in the office when these beats are bumping!)

[Mike Stephenson @MikeCStephenson]

Have you noticed the shift in the employment game?

Flexibility, side hustles and job sharing are where it's at!

I don't know about you but I'm loving how we’re awakening to our core values and re-evaluating how we want to spend our time.

Love this initiative that teaches high school students the fundamentals of the stock market!🤩

Educating younger generations on basic financial literacy strengthens their ability to make informed decisions for the future.

Have you invested in virtual real estate yet? My advice? 👇

Bring along some of that old-school logic before you do!

Virtual property is on 🔥 — but are there any tangible benefits to it?

IMO, the micro-moments spent passively checking in on your virtual land-holdings offer an investor education that’s hard to replicate in real life.

It’s early days for the virtual real estate boom, but already the value of transactions is through the roof! (No pun intended).

Check out my take in @INMAN on the real benefits of virtual real estate investing.

DYK: 12% of US homes have been bought by LGBTQ+ folks since June 2020?

With more Millennials and Gen Zers entering the market as their authentic selves, this is having a hugely positive impact on representation in the space.

Metaverse real estate is hot but if you want my 2c — don’t go selling off all your IRL investments just yet.

I’m so excited to be featured in @Inman discussing why our relationship with the metaverse can be much more than transactional.

I wrote a piece about how coming out as a gay entrepreneur has had a ripple effect on my business and it’s an honour to see it being shared during #PrideMonth by @EntrepreneurOrg.

Give it a read and let me know what you think:

From being students at the same high school to carpooling to college to cutting our teeth as entrepreneurs together — my co-founder and I have been through it all.

Check out what I've learned from being a “monogamous” work partner for 12 years:

What advice would you give young people who feel there is no point in saving for the future?

👉 Alternative forms of investing! 👈

More gens are forcing a way into real estate investing by leveraging crowdfunding — that's the vibe!
