How to own an island


Monge Malo, the best seller in Spanish language told this story a few days ago.

​

In 1978, Richard Branson (founder of Virgin), to impress his then-girlfriend, pretended to be buying a deserted island.

Yeah… just like that.

Some vacuum the car, others pretend to buy an island…

​

The island’s price was $6 million.

​

Richard offered $100,000.

​

Just for the laughs and with the intention to have good company under the sheet.

​

The owner counter-offered at $180,000, and Richard ended up acquiring Necker Island.

​

Yeah… just like that.

​

Luck?

Of course.

​

Luck always follows those who take action.

Those who seek the experience above all else. And those who ask.

Especially when the requests are crazy and bold.

​

Action is always better than complaining.

This week I’ve been quite busy. Just launching into the market two new short-term rentals. Looking at the dishwasher, some furniture, attending the internet technical guy… things like that. I could probably delegate all this, but sometimes, you want to be on top of everything. Why do I do this? Why, would you ask. Because I like it… and because I do believe that money is important. Very important. You may like it more or less, but 99% of the decisions you will make in the future will be...

When I hear this, there is a shake in my spine. I’ll try. Or worse. We’ll try. That’s a total lack of commitments. I’m not talking about common sense in the White House. No. But about commitment. Commitment is one of those things there is total shortage. Too many individuals, companies, organizations… too many fail to commit fully to their activities, duties, obligations and responsibilities. They are not on board. They don’t feel real pain if something is not achieved. To acquire success is...

Your network is your net worth, and it’s shrinking… You wake up, check your phone. Get work done, on your laptop. Buy your groceries, with a click. Order lunch and dinner, from an app. Watch a movie, on a screen. Go to bed, after one last scroll. A day of life, and you seldom have to talk mouth hole to mouth hole. If this feels normal, that’s because it is. But normal doesn’t mean good, and the data shows we’re choosing this path more than ever. • In-person socializing dropped by over 20%...
