Next time someone tells you that making money isn't a matter of mindset, ask them how much they earn. ​ I see out there many people following advice from people that have zero skin in the game. Accountants that tell you to do X, Y, Z, with your investments… but they don’t have any investments. Or accountants that tell you that you shouldn’t create a company and remain as a sole entrepreneur because it’s simpler… but they use a company. Traders that provide courses and make zero dollars doing traders… 100% of revenues providing courses.

Too smart. They started sneaking small changes into the agreement. Nothing dramatic. Nothing that looked...
Dakar–Diamniadio. A toll road. It reduced a journey of around 90 minutes to approximately 25. It opened on time. Within budget. Traffic exceeded expectations. And it became one of Africa’s best-known PPP case studies. So, naturally, “experts” looked at the contract. The financing. The risk allocation. The concessionaire. All important. But many were missing the secret sauce. Senegal spent around ten years preparing the project before the road opened. Ten years. Not ten PowerPoint...
I have a friend. A colleague. She is very interested in putting her knowledge to work. On her own. In the consulting space. I always tell her that selling air conditioners probably has a much better future. You know. Climate change. Installation fees. Recurring maintenance revenue. All that. But she loves infrastructure.
