What to do with money
|
Many of us see our parents putting on weight. ​ When you have 20 or 30 kg of fat on your body and you don’t maintain good muscle mass, it’s difficult to climb stairs, get on the ground and stand up without help, or even walk. ​ Can you imagine 20 kg less fat and 5 kg more muscle? ​ Fitter parents and grandparents. Fewer medications. Fewer side effects. More trips. More vitality. ​ It’s hard to change habits that have been ingrained for many years. ​ But there are some highly effective levers that can be tried. ​ Of course, it requires effort. ​ But so does carrying the weight. Or injecting insulin. Or taking daily semaglutide. ​ Are you in the same path? ​ Look. ​ Many people are obsessed about money. ​ Not bad in principle. It would be worst to be obsessed about paying more taxes… ​ But money is just the first step. Important, but that’s not where the journey ends. ​ On the contrary, that’s where it begins. One thing is having economic freedom, and quite another is knowing what to do with that freedom. ​ That’s why some people, even after achieving financial freedom, still don’t find true abundance. ​ And what is true abundance? ​ It’s the combination of three things: physical, mental, and spiritual abundance. ​ Imagine having financial success, but your body doesn’t let you enjoy it due to a lack of health. What’s the point then? Imagine having perfect health but not finding purpose or resources to feel fulfilled. Is that the quality of life you really want? Imagine having a clear purpose but having also your mind full of anxiety and constant noise... then it’s game over. ​ True abundance is about keeping those three pillars in balance. ​ If you are looking for balance, you may want to check the first lessons of the Mentorship. ​Join my mentorship - Only $24.90 - LAUNCHING PRICE​ ​ PD 1: If you liked this email, don't keep it in secret and forward it to a friend.

It’s not a story of mine. No. The great Nassim Nicholas Taleb, in his book Antifragile compared two people: a high-level executive with a good salary, dressed in a suit and tie, and an immigrant taxi driver, self-employed, with a variable income and dressed as best he can. Taleb remarked that, while the executive may seem to have a calmer, more secure life with a better salary, better suits, and nicer restaurants, deep down, he lived in immense internal fear. He sh*t in his pants. This fear...
I say it many times. People prefer to be right than making money. Successful people though have less ego and more money in their pocket. Don’t believe so? Let me ask you what you would do in this situation. In 1997, the movie The War of Troy premiered, with a production budget of $15 million. Easy… probably you never heard of it, right? Well… after it was completed, it was shown in two theatres, sold $309 in tickets, and Warner Brothers pulled it. Sent it to hell. Why? Why not show it in more...
Christmas is a fantastic moment of the year to check how the world work. Many people have no idea of what your hard-earned dollars that move the world work. Many people still ask me whether to invest as a company or as individual. Look. One of the biggest financial predators of our money is the government… Taxes. You want the new Mac. Retail cost 2.300$. Imagine that you are lucky and make 10.000$ a month and you want to buy that Mac. The government eats around 40% in income tax. You got...
