Phones, tablets, robots… Every skill you have today and that you believe is marketable won't be in a few short years. These will be some skills though that will remain in extreme demand for a decade or so. AI engineers. Why? Because somebody needs to deploy the wonderful alien technology we've discovered - to increase automation of every company and organization. Some will become millionaires, and billionaires. Most will be employees. I saw the trend 25 years ago with communications. Great jobs, great opportunities to create your companies… Now, telecom engineers are pure commodity. This cycle happens all the time. This is why getting just a new diploma, a new degree, a new certificate, won’t save you. It’s not a waste of time or money, no. I’m not saying that. It’s always good to learn new things. It is just that despite those new learnings and trends, there is one, and one only that keeps you going on. Not for the next decade, but many more year. Your personal growth. Control on your career, on your business, on your money. It took me a long, long time to realize that it’s not knowledge, but communication. It’s not studying, but action. It’s not perfectionism, but learning from mistakes. It’s not a pay check, but a stream of revenues that will keep you in the right track when retirement time arrives. Last day at this price.

A terrible clause about Force Majeure. A lawyers’ money-making machine with the definition of “Substantial regulatory changes” A few days ago, I had the opportunity to discuss common flaws to PPP contracts. Lawyers can be really good drafting millions of pages. They have no idea how real people deal with those pages in a day to day basis. That was the conversation I had with a student of the mentorship. 5 clauses. 5 headaches. Easily avoidable. The clauses, the potential solutions, together...
Despite being on a Saturday, I received a few emails asking about yesterday contract! Look… I have plenty of examples. Yesterday, it was a PPP in the Philippines… but I’ve been working on a few others PPP project. A fantastic example with nice clauses that are less bankable than a PPP for a data center in North Korea. Kenya. A known highway. The Review Procedure. “Disagreements will be discussed” Literally. Good luck with getting a solution. Discussing can be the more frustrating of...
These days I’m enjoying some interesting stuff. There is a clause. In particular, 13.3 of a project agreement. “Foregone Toll Income & ‘Mutual Agreement’ Extension”** I love the title. It deals with cases where the government prevents the toll road from charging the approved tariff. Then, if this happens, logically for political reasons… The government must either: Compensate the monthly Foregone Toll Income, or Grant a Concession Extension, the duration of which must be mutually agreed If...
