The world is a hard place. Not only if you live now in Canada, Panama or Greenland. It’s a hard place. Period. People that say that money is not important have no idea of the power of money. It’s freedom. It’s choices. I just saw today the picture of a newborn among other 60 immigrants in a patera, a ship that you won’t use to fish in a lake with a couple of friends, used to travel with other 60 people, hundreds of miles in the Atlantic, from Africa to Spain. The newborn was born in that patera. In that ship. Rescuing him alive was a miracle. Money moves people to risk their lives or their most precious possession. Money allowed to locate these people, to rescue these people and to make miracles. I don’t know about you, but this is the best piece of news I’ve seen in a while. ​ You surely have more choices. ​ If you want to do good for the world, make money, get rich, use your freedom to do good… and, if possible, miracles. ​ I’m in my way. Below it is how. ​Even you can make money in real estate. ​ ​ PD 1: If you liked this email, don't keep it in secret and forward it to a friend. They will thank you enormously one day.

Project: McGill University Health Centre (MUHC) PPP Value: ~ CAD $1.3 billion Model: DBFM Canada again. Sophisticated market. Experienced advisers. Polished risk matrices. I was there practising kung fu and delivering infrastructure. The goal? Deliver one of the largest hospital redevelopments in North America through PPP. And make it...
Toronto. 2015. Project: Eglinton Crosstown LRT. Value: CAD $5+ billion. Model: DBFM. Jurisdiction: Canada — the global gold standard of PPPs. The agency wanted efficiency. Faster procurement. Faster close. Cleaner risk transfer. Put a medal in the chest for opening the day before election day. So they did what PPP manuals love to say: “Allocate risk to the party best able to manage it.” That sentence has probably financed more claims for lawyers than any other in infrastructure history....
This is the key question that made his face change. Last week. A mentee. Shocked by a very simple question. Look, I’ve seen through the years people living in a cage. Of self-imposed believes and limitations. You can blame your parents, your wife or husband, society, the lefties, Bad Bunny or Donald T. Whatever. These limitations, self-imposed, are holding you back. If you believe that it’s impossible to multiply by 10 your income… You’ll miss the opportunity of letting your brain being in...
