A suggestion for this new year
|
Live poor, die rich. This is the mindset that many people have these days “in order to be rich” or get financial freedom. You know the old piece of advice: study hard, get good grades, a good job, live below your means, save and retire. Terrible advice in these days where governments keep printing fake money, inflation is “moderated” by printing a lot or printing less, and the gap between the producers and the consumers is bigger by the day. I don’t know what plans you have for next year. I have a few. To buy 1-3 apartments to invest in New Zealand, start my new project of 4 additional Airbnb in Spain, start construction of a couple of hotels in Panama, keep developing my mentoring, coaching and consulting business… When having Champaign yesterday, I hope that you thought about what you want to achieve this year. The things that you’ll learn. The habits that you’ll change. Today, I propose you the course about investing below. Tomorrow, probably the same course. It’s good. But the day after tomorrow, it will be something different because you won’t have access anymore. It will be over. Out of the market, forever. Up to you… Save or Invest? ​Invest better than 99% of people... including fund managers​ ​ PD 1: If you liked this email, don't keep it in secret and forward it to a friend.

Your consortium is ready. Equity committed. Contractors lined up. Designers caffeinated beyond medical guidelines. The agency launches the RFQ. Everyone smiles. “Finally, a flagship project done properly.” (What a beautiful illusion.) Then… the unexpected happens. A new Minister arrives. (You can already feel...
My wife has sentenced. My little son and I are condemned to not wearing anything white clothes in the next 10 to 15 years. No matter what you do, no matter how much precaution you have, it all ends the same. Wine, oil, or tomato come to the party. And that polo or shirt ended like a Kleenex. One use only. No matter what you do, it’s time you look for a second use or prepare to send it to a charity. One use only, as I said. Like great RFPs. Millions spent. Dozens of consultants mobilized....
Just in a rush as I’m taking a plane. You’ve been reading my emails for weeks. Learning, nodding, agreeing… But nothing changes just by knowing. You can blame the market. You can blame your company. You can blame your boss or the government or the crisis. Or you can accept a fact: Winners move when others freeze. You want better projects? Better money? Recognition? A pat in the back? Then you must become the person who gets those things. You know what I’m offering. Not soft coaching, but...
