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.

Those who know me well know that I’m not a football fan. Or soccer. Whatever you prefer. But I watched the last ten minutes of Spain’s match—my only ten minutes of the World Cup… yes, I know—and I was amazed. And happy, by the way. Beating Argentina is always fun. Especially after their famous “Devolvé la copa” a few years ago… But that’s not the point. The point is that, within five minutes, the internet was full of memes. Messi crying like a baby. Lamine Yamal—or Yamil, Yamile… you know I’m...
As I was involved… I still look at it very closely. A multibillion-dollar bridge ready. Roads built. Border facilities prepared. And traffic still waiting. The opening of the Gordie Howe International Bridge between Canada and the United States had to be postponed while both governments resolved a series of outstanding issues. Not construction issues. Interface issues. Don’t blame Trump. It’s deeper than that. People consistently underestimate in major infrastructure: The asset is not...
As Robert Kiyosaki once said: “Opportunities repeat themselves because people repeat the same mistakes.” Markets change. People don’t. New projects. Same optimism. New investors. Same herd behaviour. New PPPs. Same bad risk allocation. New SPVs. Same surprise when operations become a monster. The great advisers are not the ones chasing the hot market. They are the ones studying the repeated mistakes. Once you recognise the pattern, you stop being another consultant with opinions. You become...
