    DBA

    Last month the shareholders decided I should not (yet) create a corporation. I was surprised, but I appreciate the expertise of my shareholders who voted to reduce complexity. I was also a little sad, because I thought it would be fun to name a company. Then I realized that as a sole proprietor I can…

  • Social Media Dark Mode

    Social Media Dark Mode

    We know social media is bad for society but we use it anyway. As much as I love connecting with people, doing so in an environment that is actively harmful feels like too high a price. How should a person exist online? That is the question I put to my shareholders in April of 2022.…

    KmikeyM @ TEDxVienna

    In October of 2021 I was able to go on stage at TEDxVienna and talk about how I became publicly traded. Thankfully they cut out the parts where I cried. I’ll write more on this later but I am excited to be able to share the video with you all!

    The July Challenge was Record and Share Every Purchase which won at 33% support over “read five books” (21%) and “Go to a different LA Neighborhood every day” (15%)… so I made a spreadsheet. Then Lillian did her livestream where she talked about her finances and so I kind of invited myself on as a…

    The June challenge was almost over, with the majority of votes going to “Keep fresh flowers in the house.” I was excited, Kathryn was excited, and I was already looking up the public hours for the flower market when suddenly Josh came in and ruined the whole thing. He tipped the vote to “Wake up…

  • Shareholder Roadshow

    Shareholder Roadshow

    When a company is going to IPO they will often do a “roadshow” and make presentations on why they are a great investment to institutional investors. As a publicly traded person I am adopting a more personal version of a roadshow: a road trip. I want to meet as many shareholders as possible! Starting in…
