Why you should be lazy

Published 8 months ago • 1 min read

Laziness.
There’s something about laziness that can actually teach you a lot—and even help you level up your investments like never before.

Think about it logically.
Most businesses are built on laziness.

  • "Should we get a taxi?"
  • "Why the hell would I go out trying to flag one down—just order an Uber."

Sound familiar?
But this one probably hits even closer:

  • "What should we have for dinner?"
  • "As long as I don’t have to make it, order whatever you want."

Laziness drives the world.
And it makes sense.
We want to focus on what we enjoy or what we’re good at.
Nothing else.

Same thing happens with investing.
Especially with real estate.

A lot of people are too lazy to look for properties.
To analyze them.
To buy, renovate, manage them...
You get the idea.

​

This is why so few people actually do this. Make money. Create wealth.

Now, you decide in which side of laziness you want to be.

These days, I usually panic a little. Just a little. Not because of the “social commitments.” And not because of the alcohol… which, let’s be honest, doesn’t do your health any good whether it’s “only one,” “only two,” December or June. No. It’s something worse. Much worse than overeating and overdrinking. Queueing. For me, queueing is more terrifying than being forced to watch an entire season of Big Brother. Nothing good ever comes out of standing in line. Nothing. Maybe disappointment…...

A nice thing of brining my son to daycare and this being in the same building than the main NZ infrastructure agencies is that you meet lots of people. From the doors to the elevator, people having coffee, hanging out in the sofas, etc. Suddenly a “hey, Vicente”, and then… Some free consultation. Well… not as free, as the coffee is excellent, I always order one. “On me”. The usual suspects are: How can ensure competitive tension? How can I deal with claims? How can I prevent claims? How many...

I’ve been closing some insurance policies these days. For myself. Health, life, mortgage, etc. You don’t appreciate enough a good broker until you get one. If you’re serious about investing, this is your second more important broker after your mortgage broker. But I don’t want to talk to you about personal insurance. But PPP insurance. It’s probably one of those fields, most people mess up. Clients. Banks. SPVs… All parties alike. You have insurance to cover accidents on site causing...
