Dan Price, the\\xa0founder of Gravity Payments, became a media darling in 2015 after announcing that every employee would be paid a minimum of $70k. (Those salaries have consistently risen since then.) For most of his staff, the increase was dramatic (the median income in the U.S. is about\\xa0$60k.) Now, four years later, Dan tells Manoush how an ex-girlfriend woke him up to Seattle\\u2019s high cost of living, what equal pay has done to his company\\u2019s bottom line, and what he thinks could rehabilitate other corporations and\\xa0*their\\xa0*overpaid CEOs. Plus, Manoush and Jen debate whether Dan\\u2019s pay strategy is replicable for\\xa0their company.
