Codie Sanchez, an amazing lady, building millions in boring businesses says it clearly. Your salary will never set you free. Your financial freedom can only come through ownership. More specifically, through equity done the right way She believes in boring businesses. I may try one day. I believe in making real estate a business. I propose you a very simple offer. That you take a look to my philosophy about real estate. It’s easier than you think. It just takes some work. Hard work I would say. But waking up every day at the hour you’re told, is some work. Some days, hard work. Wearing what you’re told is some work. For me… really hard work. Heating your chair with you *ss every day, minimum 8 hours, is also hard work. Waiting for a promotion or a raise that covers inflation is also hard work. You choose your “hard”. Buy cheap. Renovate. Hold or sell. Finance strategically. Be smart about taxes. Simple. Still, many will wait and hope for a raise. ​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.

High-speed trains. Two countries connected. Estimated cost: $15-20 billion. The type of project ministers...
Some of the worst PPPs in the world come from capital cities trying to look impressive. Huge buildings. Architectural statements. Politicians cutting ribbons. And budgets exploding. But some of the best PPPs? They come from places nobody talks about. Take Ferguson Place Recreation Centre PPP. It sits in Fort St. John, Canada… Oh Canada! Population: about 21,000 people. Not exactly Tokyo. The city needed something simple: A recreation centre. Swimming pools. Ice rinks. Fitness facilities....
A toll road. In one of the richest regions of Europe. Northern Italy. Lombardy. Industrial powerhouse. Traffic everywhere. What could possibly go wrong? The project was called the Autostrada Pedemontana Lombarda. A massive motorway designed to connect cities north of Milan and relieve congestion around the region. On paper, it looked like a dream. Economic powerhouse region. Millions of inhabitants. Constant truck traffic. Banks were queuing to through their money to the asphalt plant. Making...
