The first publicly traded person

@mike.merrill · Los Angeles, CA

I create and collaborate on projects.

Raised in the frozen tundra of Alaska my rebellion was to be become an "indoor kid" who spent time on reading and being on the computer. I spent a few years in the military, where I learned the power of process and bureaucracy, and then lived in the pacific northwest absorbing the DIY indie aesthetic of the late 90's around artists, writers, and musicians. I fell in love with business and started selling shares of myself while ... Read more

The South Sea Bubble and the Cycle of Crisis

I was reading about the South Sea Bubble, known as the first financial crisis, and it has so many similarities to every single financial crisis. It really set the mold for the pattern of how hype fuels poor decisions and leads to ruin.

2022 Review – NEWS.KMIKEYM.COM

At the end of every year I am thinking more about the coming year and all that I want to accomplish and what I didn't quote finish. But actually taking the time to look back at 2022 I'm a surprised at how much happened in the KmikeyM community. TEDxVienna Talk I waited not so patiently…

The Name to Use For Money Business • 📈 K5M

As a new independent contractor / consultant it has been decided by the shareholders that I won't create any kind of [corporate shield](https://vote.kmikeym.com/k5m/questions/149). But that doesn't mean I can't have a fun name for business. After asking my shareholders we have a number of options for creating a name where I can send really great invoices. **Valcherius Michelangelo Queen** This is a fantasy name I came up a while ago. I like the idea of invoicing people with an overly elaborate name and creating a persona for my business work. **Merrill Finch** In the movie Boiler Room (2000) there is a brokerage firm called J.T. Marlin, chosen to sound close to JP Morgan, a more established and trusted firm. There are a lot of options in this vein! **Michael Wave Theory** Beau came up with this one in Slack. Michael Wave sounds like microwave and I like Michael Wave Theory...

Rescind Social Media Strategy • 📈 K5M

Due to shareholder activism this is a vote to rescind our current social media strategy of "[Dark Mode](https://news.kmikeym.com/dark-mode/)." In April of 2022 the shareholders approved going private with 54% approval but with many shareholders expressing reservations about all the options listed as being pretty drastic. In response to shareholder sentiment raised during the summit this is a vote to exit private mode and have open social media accounts.

How I became the world's first publicly traded person | Mike Merrill | TEDxVienna

Living life as the personal embodiment of capitalism makes some things in life much easier. But no matter how wrong things go the important thing is to keep providing shareholder value, which in this case is pretty close to friendship. K. Mike Merrill has been a publicly traded person for thirteen years. Each day he wakes up and checks the price of his shares which trade every day, giving him a somewhat warped sense of his "value" at all times. He'll tell you this motivates him to stay productive but the truth is hurts more when the stock is down than feels good when it goes up. His shareholders also take a more active role by voting on his life choices. This has mostly worked out great except for the time they had him try polyphasic sleeping and register as a member of a different political party. This talk was...
