What happens with the change of season...
|
It seems like investment trends change with the seasons. Who knows. ​ But there’s one thing that’s always been there—quiet, without promising overnight riches, yet delivering solid results: real estate. ​ Now, some people claim real estate isn’t profitable. ​ ​ ​ Let’s break down why real estate continues to be one of the best investments out there: ​ Stability: ​ “Passive” income – never passive, I know but quite so… ​ ​ Consistent appreciation: ​ Control over your investment: This is the ultimate benefit. In the stock market, you’re at the mercy of big corporations, macroeconomic decisions or Trumps sense of humor. Security: Yeah, you may have a fire, an earthquake… but what’s insurance for? ​ So yes—profitability isn’t just measured in numbers. Because while others are stressing over extreme volatility, real estate investors sleep soundly knowing their wealth is still growing. ​ Look. I’ve tried many businesses, invested and managed start-ups… and the only thing it pays off in terms of scalability, work, capital and time… it’s real estate. If you would like to start somewhere, I recommend you this. ​33 Questions about Flipping Properties​ ​ PD 1: If you liked this email, don't keep it in secret and forward it to a friend.

By installing the roof before securing the steel structure with the final bolts. “Don’t worry, jefe, it holds by itself.” Famous last words of every construction project ever. The weather app showed light breeze. New Zealand showed: “Hold my beer.” A 45-km/h gust arrived, grabbed the entire roof like a giant frisbee, and sent it...
In a meeting with an agency not long time ago, I was asked for advice with regards to the team they’ll need to set up for managing a PPP project. Obviously, our conversation started by a “are you kidding me”? Managing multibillion dollar projects required people able to handle multibillion dollar projects. That’s the basics. If you bring to your team people used to manage projects in the range of 10 millions… the focus is not going to be on the right things. The nickelling and diamonding...
Imagine that you write your monthly report. Yes, you’re part of a consortium in a PPP project. You write your report. And you send it to the agency, the government, or whatever. It’s subject to the famous review procedures. The agency sends back comments. They disagree with some of your statements. And you disagree with those statements. What to do? Remember, next month, again the j*dido report de mi€rda. You can be dragged to an endless set of discussions about every single monthly report....
