At the beginning I didn’t want to believe it. Until I watched the video by myself. It’s just a 30-second video. It will change forever the way you look at the world. ​ Some guys go to the center of a plaza in a tourist city with a mannequin. ​ Now, think for a minute. Maybe two minutes. Is your brain not exploding? ​ No? ​ Not yet? ​ ​ Let’s say that you are also lazy… that you have other commitments like watching the latest movie in Netflix. Then, let’s imagine that only 150 days a year are good, you have no commitments, the weather is not that bad, and your boss didn’t ask you for a new Power Point Presentation. ​ Let’s also be super cautious. ​ Suppose there are only a few peak hours. Just 4 good hours a day. Yes… just 25.
150 × 4 × 25 = 15,000 dollars a year. ​ It’s probably more than double that amount, but let’s say that it’s just that: 15,000 dollars a year… Per statue. ​ Yes… who said that you could use only one. So, 45.000 dollars a year with: ​
​ I know what’s happening right now through your brain. Yes… I know it quite well. Right now your brain is working at lightning speed to come up with reasons why this wouldn’t work:
​ Keep going. ​ ​ ​ ​ Exactly one year ago… I created a portfolio with my money. Real money. Real cash. I invested following a series of guidelines. This is the result. Investing 100.000 euros, or 140.6k CAD dollars… Look at this: 30 September: 140,600.84 31 October: 139,533.02 30 November: 149,311.00 31 December: 152,101.00 31 January: 158,959.08 29 February: 165,329.06 31 March: 169,995.03 30 April: 167,714.94 31 May: 176,419.64 30 June: 179,177.74 31 July: 182,027.52 30 August: 182,772.25 30 September: 186,818.21 ​ ​Return since creation: 32.87% or 46,217.37 CAD dollars. Still, you’ll be thinking… that this is impossible, it won’t happen again, someone will ask me for a new Power Point presentation… ​ While you’re thinking why not to buy the course below, my portfolio is making money for me. ​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.

Time for a ridiculous story from the world of infrastructure contracts. You know, those multi-billion-dollar deals where one tiny typo can turn into a legendary office joke. Well… here you are one. Picture this. Somewhere in Europe. A massive bridge project. The contract is huge, hundreds of pages of legal and technical jargon. In the middle of all that, there was supposed to be a clause that said the contractor had to provide a "large-tonnage crane." Don’t ask why. Maybe some stupid Spanish...
I receive their email religiously every week. They fabricate and install curtains. You don’t expect to be renewing those things every week. Nor every year. But here they are, sending those emails weekly. On the other hand, I tried to look for 15 min for the guys that do the shampooing of my carpet. That’s something that you should be doing twice or so a year. Not an email. And still… is there anything more recurrent / certain? Probably yes, but it’s Sunday and I have the brain focused on...
A couple of weeks ago, I received a call from an agent. Vicente, I have this house for you, and you should take a look. I receive the link. I take a look. The ratio rooms: people was 2:1 and I counted the cat as one. “Too big for us”. “Too big? But you can afford it” “That may be true, but it’s too big, we don’t need that space”.
