Gravity Payments is a credit card and payment processing company catering to small businesses. Dan is publishing a book, "Worth It," about his experiences.Despite productivity in the United States rising by 70% over the last 40 years, the hourly pay of most workers has stagnated, increasing only 11.6% over that same time period. The median household annual income today is approximately $55,000 (pre-Covid-19). "Small businesses unquestionably make our lives better, make our communities better," says Dan. "When I announced I was taking a $1 million pay cut to pay everyone $70,000 a year, the situation was that I was now in a community where everybody could meet their needs. And Gravity Payments became more about the people and the principles behind the company."

There was a time when investing was considered the domain of money and concerns of societal good and politics often inhabited very different spaces in our mind. Sure, ESG (environmental, societal, and governance) investments have been around for decades but the choices available and the general performance was poor. They hadn’t really gained much traction until recently. Enter 2021. The proliferation of ESG funds which have outperformed the market run by large and respectable brokerage firms has expanded greatly. The pandemic, associated recession, and social turmoil are upon us. And a new generation of millennial and gen z investors are coming of age who value not just the returns your money can make, but the good your money can do. In this broad ranging interview Eva Yazhari and I discuss her new book, The Good Your Money Can Do: Becoming a Conscious Investor. We talk about what types of asset allocations have the most impact, ESG investing, and how to be intentional not only with your money but also with your actions. Plus, I continue the conversation with Joe Saul-Sehy of The Stacking Benjamin’s Podcast on ESG investing with a clip from our live recording on Fireside.
