If you are good enough to compete for a top-level corporate job, you should be smart enough to know what the job pays the other gender and negotiate accordingly. If you are an employer, and you don't pay an employee market wages, regardless of gender or orientation, you will end up with what you deserve.

I love being challenged and defending my positions and, when I'm wrong, learning from the exchange. It makes me smarter and better as a businessperson.

I can't say it enough that learning how to learn is one of the greatest skills anyone can have. It's why I advocate that everyone go to college.

Not everything has to be a money-making operation. You do things sometimes because it makes you feel good.

When it comes to money, I can earn it.

It became clear I wanted to be a development economist. I mean, I said I wanted to work on the economics of poor countries.

If you are in the world of business, that means you are in the business of making money.
