Started March 12, completed March 26th. (Typical.)

It’s not what you think.

Last night I was having dinner with several of my close girlfriends at a beautiful restaurant in Yaletown; Giardino’s. One of the girls asked me what turning 29 meant to me, as the dinner was a birthday celebration. It’s a fantastic question, and it conjures many feelings. I feel pride and excitement for where I am today and what I have accomplished, but I also feel frustration and regret for where I am not. The past few weeks have been tough at points, because I can be incredibly hard on myself, particularly in regards to my accomplishments.

Populism: What Is It?

Published on March 3, 2017 in Investing by Olivia

Yesterday in my video I discussed the factors that I saw as the cause for partisanship, and one of the main ones was inequality based on the fast-pace of technology development, and how technology is displacing people who are not able to keep up.
