It's becoming tabu
|
It’s a constant. When you talk freely about money you’re critized. And not just from Spain, the country that is a fiscal hell but the paradise of criticism and the prosecution of the rich, no… It’s everywhere. It’s becoming a kind of tabu. Look. The world is full of people who say, "money isn’t important". Good for them. But I think they don’t know what they’re saying. They just say it for the sake of saying it. It’s a cliché. If they stopped for a moment to think, they would realize that money matters to them more than they’re willing to admit. For money, they spend a large part of their lives doing things they deeply hate. So Spain is a poor country, or Spanish people poor in mindset. And it’s a pity, because some of the stories I tell in the book below, that money made through smart investing, are in Spain. And if you can make money there… trust me, you can everywhere.

Looking for your next dopamine hit. This applies to your life. But also to how you work. If your door is always...
Hospital PPPs have a bad reputation. Delays. Overpricing. Rigidity. You’ve heard the stories. I remember when I work at ACS that any RFP announcement of a hospital was received as the last Trump’s tweet… We didn’t know what to do about… Let’s now talk about the Alzira Hospital PPP in Spain. Launched in 1999. First of its kind. A full model: Design. Build. Finance. Operate. Not just the building. Healthcare delivery. High risk. High exposure. High scrutiny. And still… It worked. Well… somehow....
Yesterday I learned that the European Union, the climax of bureaucracy in human history, will require passports for all dogs and cats. Some countries want to be wealthy. Others want to lead in technology or AI. Others want to be the best place in the world to do business. In the meantime… the EU is busy with things that will surely make it richer, more prosperous, and a better place to live. I’m telling you this because the EU is not unique. This is everywhere. Every country, government,...
