How you can cool off

The world is on fire. 98% of investors have lost money in the past few days. And that’s OK. This is why when I was asked on Wednesday if “should I sell now”, my answer was… What are you talking about? Look. We've all read dozens of 'influencers' suggesting that investing €500 a month in the S&P 500 will make you rich in 20 years. The stock market only goes up. And to some extent, they might be right, but I don't like that extreme volatility dependent on a few overly powerful individuals. For part of my money, that's fine. For the other part, it's not.​ Sexy or not, real estate is more stable. Yes, there's the 2008 crisis, and talk of another bubble... But there are ways to invest without losing sleep over what a 70-year-old redhead across the pond might do. Investing in thoroughly analyzed and verified real estate projects that guarantee a fixed return is now a reality. Knowing more or less how much you're going to earn before putting your money on the table reassures me. And you have control. You don’t depend on people wearing red hats… But look. Let’s be brutally honest. People panic. And panic is the best environment to fish… and fish big. World population is growing. No matter who is in power. Global productivity is improving. No matter who is in power. The long term tendency is growth. And if this doesn’t happen is because of a global world. And in this case… Your money is stocks will be useless. Your properties will be useless. Even if you are leaving out of the grid, you have a liability because you know that you will be become a valuable target in a world where everyone will have to take care of themself. So… Look at the opportunities out there because there are plenty. Be calm. Be safe. Become rich and independent. ​Is this piece of real estate a good investment​ PD 1: If you liked this email, don't keep it in secret and forward it to a friend.

Too many products. Too many versions. Too much confusion. And the CEO comes back. He walks into a product meeting. Engineers proud. Slides prepared. Roadmaps built. He listens. And listens. And listens. Then he walks to the whiteboard. Draws a simple 2x2 grid. Consumer / Pro. Desktop / Portable. “That’s it,” he says. Everything else? Gone. Not optimized. Not restructured. Killed. In one meeting, he cut roughly 70% of the product line. Imagine the room. Years of work. Teams built around those...
Anything that is alive is in a continual state of change and movement. The moment that you rest, thinking that you have attained the level you desire, a part of your mind enters a phase of decay. You lose your hard-earned creativity and others begin to sense it. This is a power and intelligence that must be continually renewed, or it will die ---- Robert Greene If you ever wonder what I’m doing at 10pm in New Zealand, just when I’m writing this email… You’ve got your answer. I said many times...
According to constraint theory, the greatest human bottleneck is attention. Yes. Our attention is our most finite resource. Even more finite and valuable than our time. Now, think about why Meta is so valuable. And Elon wanted X. And so on… Indeed, the quality and depth of our attention determines the quality of our time. Most people’s attention is scattered, tugged, and seemingly never right here and right now. The rich know this well. In the US, the top 1% don’t allow kids to interact with...
