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. ​

Christmas is not my cup of tea. I guess that I’m too practical to over eat, over drink, over talk and over spend. It’s not an optimal solution. One of the things I’m trying to be practical about is gifts. In Spain, gifts are given on the 6January morning. The 3 wise men day. There is also a very famous place. El Corte Inglés… or The English Cut (?) Where you can buy all gifts. Adults and children alike. From clothing to iPads to travel packages. One shop to get everything. So, you won’t see...
Somewhere in Latin America. 2021. A consortium wins a massive infrastructure contract. Billions of dollars. Press headlines. Champagne. “We’re the best,” they say. More Champagne. Expensive hotels. More expensive restaurants. The very first project like this… ever. Yeah! Bonus. Yeah! But that was the problem. The team that won it… had zero clue how to deliver a PPP of that size. This is NOT theory. This happened in real life. Signed. Celebrated. New suits. Photos with the minister. Of course…...
They say that if you don’t get haters, it’s because you are unnoticed. They also say that if you don’t get sued, it’s because you are not achieving anything valuable. I may be talking a little personal here. But, apply this to the PPP world and you’ll get the same pattern. If you are an agency and some people don’t dislike you, you’re probably being average. You’re a kind of Care Bear, an Osito Amoroso. Spreading love. Fearful of upsetting anybody. You’re average in Averageland. And if you...
