This week I’ve been quite busy. Just launching into the market two new short-term rentals. Looking at the dishwasher, some furniture, attending the internet technical guy… things like that. I could probably delegate all this, but sometimes, you want to be on top of everything. Why do I do this? Why, would you ask. ​ Because I like it… and because I do believe that money is important. Very important. You may like it more or less, but 99% of the decisions you will make in the future will be influenced by the money in your wallet. Or maybe 99.99%... I could be wrong with the decimals… ​ Where you live, how you live, the number of generic brands in your fridge, and the school your children attend will depend on the money you manage. ​ Now, I’m not saying it should be the center of your life… its importance is just only a little below the air you breath… But it is certainly a huge help in keeping the real center running smoothly. ​ So, wouldn’t it be a better idea to establish a healthy relationship with money and make an effort to understand how to save it, invest it, or generate it? ​ I’d say yes. ​ But that’s just my opinion. ​ Money is not your enemy. It’s not the devil. It’s not a spiritual obstacle. ​ What I’m trying to tell my young child is that, on the contrary, money is a wonderful universal agreement. A beautiful way to acknowledge the value received and given. ​ And ignoring its importance is denying both our era and human intelligence. ​ I insist—this isn’t about obsessing over money, but about understanding and integrating its relevance in the times we live in. ​ Otherwise, you should have been born earlier—or later. ​ That said, there are a thousand places that can help you grasp this idea, and nine hundred and ninety-nine of them are probably great. ​ But this one (which happens to be mine, and which I proudly and happily invite you to buy) is too. ​ Do you want to know why I’m doing short term rentals? ​ The answer, below. ​Even you can make money on real estate - Price $14.90​ ​ ​ PD 1: If you liked this email, don't keep it in secret and forward it to a friend.

Once I had a friend called Valentin. His parents gave him that name long time ago because he was born on 14 February. In Spain, there are still many people naming their children with the name of the saint of the day… or the day they were married, or things like that. Well… His parents could not foresee at the time the long term consequences of their choice. San Valentine was not at the time the word-wide phenomenon that it’s today. But still… there was some noise. Well… The thing is that...
You do your offer of services. Of course, as it couldn’t be otherwise, extremely expensive. And then… they rejected it. That’s fine. Part of life. Interesting challenge, but with the risk of becoming a frustrating job. Difficult stakeholders. I did not ask for it, but the gave me anyway. The reason for they decision was “interesting”. It was not price. Not the onerous payment conditions. Or the absurdly harsh terms and conditions. Nope. It was a… “We want to do it ourselves”. Then, you...
More than you think. And it’s everywhere. Some people call it laziness. Even ignorance. Or worse… unawareness… Or insufficient understanding. The fact is that my team called the guys. The water guys. Aqualia in Spain. Once. Twice. Finally, they came. They installed the new device to measure water consumption. We wanted to change the contract, using the new device that comes with lower fees (it was a development site). No answer. Call. No answer. Call. They answered. The device is not correct....
