With the infamous Crayola Crash of 1994, Justin moved on to study economics and environmental studies as a Morehead-Cain Scholar at the University of North Carolina. He has worked in a variety of sectors across the globe, from management consulting to the United Nations, and once spent three months examining invasive snails in Vietnam. Justin discovered The Motley Fool in 2012 and it’s been love ever since. Creativity, contrarianism, kerfuffling… what more could one want? When he’s not playing the Fool, you can find Justin at the University of Auckland, where he is pursuing a Masters in Economics as a Rotary Ambassadorial Scholar. Justin finds biogas digesters fascinating and can unicycle a mile in seven minutes.

Global property group Lend Lease (ASX: LLC) will continue to cash in on its London Olympic area redevelopment project. The company announced this week that 300 new homes, built in collaboration with joint venture partner London Continental Railways, are now on sale for a 2016 move-in.

The "Glasshouse Gardens" project are the latest development that are part of Lend Lease's larger "International Quarter" project.

"Residents will be able to enjoy spectacular views of the London skyline and will benefit from the extensive transport network put in place for the London 2012 Olympic Games," said Lend Lease Project Director Kristy Lansdown in a statement. "Stratford is now well on its way to becoming one of the most well connected and desirable places to live in London and we look forward to delivering these great homes in this exciting and vibrant part of the capital."
