I know you won't do this

When you are with your radar on, even a short trip can bring you great ideas. You drive, everybody is sleeping, and you see business opportunities or business ideas. I can’t help it. Suddenly you see that there are people “operating” farms. I think that’s a great idea. I come from the countryside and I’m sick of seeing old people with no succession plan, and no buyers for their land. Great idea. Old and tired, too much work, very little gains, they can’t cope with technological changes, they close. With lots of baby boomers retiring, this seems to have a market. It’s like arbitrage in Airbnb… you don’t need to have lots of properties to make money in the real estate market. Just rent long term, operate short term rentals. It takes some work, but it’s profitable. Still… many people will read this, and won’t even get to the internet and check competitors for the farm operators, business models or whether there is any opportunities where they live. I did. And I won’t tell you the results. It’s just a question of mindset. You can see opportunities everywhere, or just trouble. If just see the second, don’t complain about Trump, Biden, taxes, or your paycheck. Take a look to the business opportunities I explain in this little book. Buy it today. Next week, I double the price.

In 2009, French composer Maurice Jarre died. An Irish student called Shane Fitzgerald decided to give him something to say. Very generous. So… He invented a quote and added it to Jarre’s Wikipedia page. Newspapers picked it up for their obituaries. Lovely words. Right person. Perfect timing. Only one small problem. Jarre had never said them. The source was a student with an internet connection… unchecked. Apparently, that was enough to become an internationally published authority on what a...
Tony Robbins made a point that stayed with me. When you believe something won’t work, you barely try. Then the results disappoint. And you say: “See? I knew it.” Congratulations. You have successfully proved a theory you barely tested. We do this with businesses. Careers. Difficult projects. “I’m not ready for that role.” “They would never hire us.” “This team will never change.” Sometimes we call it experience. Sometimes it’s fear wearing a very respectable suit. And yes, in infrastructure,...
Yesterday, I paid my house insurance again. The house is still standing. Nothing burned down. Another year of terrible returns. I should complain. Which brings me to New Zealand’s proposed LNG import facility. Interesting project… So, of course… Everyone has an opinion. Too expensive. Ridiculous. Essential. A disaster. And that’s before anyone opens the spreadsheet. Here is how I look at projects like this one. An insurance policy. Domestic gas supplies are declining. When the hydro lakes run...
