Let me tell you something interesting. People insist on the wrong issues, ideas, etc. They have a perspective of the market and they go for it without listening to the market. And that’s the receipt for failure. ​ Let me tell you a story. It’s about Mr. Pemberton. ​ If you don’t know him, Pemberton is the guy who invented Coca-Cola. Yes… that thing that you add to bad whisky or run to make it palatable. ​ Well… the guy spent 17 years making mixtures. ​ Yes… 17, not 1, 2, 5, or 8, or 12, or 15… 17. ​ Pemberton was a pharmacist, and like all pharmacies at the time, he sold digestive drinks and things like that. ​ So one day, he decides to put his invention up for sale. ​ Damn, what a mistake. The next day, the same customer who had tried the first Coca-Cola with sparkling water asks for another one. This touched the balls of the customer who got mad and said… “Where are the bubbles? What happened to the bubbles? This is undrinkable without bubbles.” ​ So, Pemberton listened to the customer and thought... ​ The rest is history. ​ In the link below, you can learn about my Pemberton’s moment in real estate. ​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.

On the morning of his competition in the decathlon, he discovered something absurd: someone had stolen his shoes. Yeah… no shoes. And look… in 1912, you didn’t have shoe shops in every corner. Well… He didn’t panic. He didn’t call off the event. He went digging through trash cans and found two mismatched shoes, one too big and one too small. He wore extra socks to make the big one...
I’m going to tell you something that, if applied, can literally change your life. Look. These last 3 months I’ve been exploring a lot the real estate market in New Zealand. Apartments, cash flows, long term and short-term rentals… I’ve spent many hours. Every day. On top of that, I’m mentoring a few people, so that they could use real estate to build wealth and financial freedom. Until now, probably nothing new to you. During these mentorships, we passed together through certain deals....
If you like infrastructure, and are worried about your taxes wasted, you should take a look to this. But first, let me tell you a story. 10 years late and 1,357% over budget. They gave a massive piece of infrastructure to someone that had not built anything bigger than a Chihuahua’s house.
