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. They will thank you enormously one day.

Recently, I assisted with horror to a meeting where I was told that the respondents of an RFP had no limit of pages in their offers. They asked my opinion. My answer was graphic. If I was the bid manager and I had a gun, I would use it. No limits. OMG. The last shoes that you want to wear are those of the bid managers in the RFP. Imagine yourself with that burden. No limits. And the risk of these guys awarding a several billions dollars contract by the weight of the paper brought in the...
The worst thing that can happen to a man, woman or chair is becoming civilized.Because then spending time in an office meeting people they don’t like and doing things that they hate under halogen lights feels acceptable.And using a ThinkPad with Windows. And preparing a PowerPoint. And eating the daily lunch special.And being afraid to ask for a raise. And when you point it out to him (to her, to it, to them) he tells you that “it is what it is,” that “what can you do,” that “life is like...
