You're a loser if you play this game
|
Would you play a game where you have 99% chances of losing? Before you answer, listen. Or read… sometimes I forget that this is an email… ​ Well… read or listen. ​ It’s impossible to make an adult to change their mind. Impossible, at least in one conversation, demonstration or else. In fact, the more you try, the more convince that “adult” is on their position. ​ It’s that simple. ​ And if not impossible, let’s say that this won’t happen 99% of the time. ​ Well… ​ People are still playing that game. Over and over. Over and over. Every single day. ​ No wonder why they could be called losers. ​ Still, people argue. People get angry with one another. People lose their friendships. ​ What a waste. ​ And very importantly remember this. Remember it very well. Repeat it every day. People prefer to be right than knowing the truth. I do my things. I let others argue, enter into arguments… I just go with MY flow. ​ I do small investments, some other quite big. ​ Since I don’t argue, I live happier and wealthier, and I go faster. ​ A lot of this is expressed in my philosophy about how approach real estate. ​ If you want to know more… here you can get some clarity. ​Is this piece of real estate a good investment​ ​ PD 1: If you liked this email, don't keep it in secret and forward it to a friend. They will thank you enormously one day.

A couple of weeks ago, I received a call from an agent. Vicente, I have this house for you, and you should take a look. I receive the link. I take a look. The ratio rooms: people was 2:1 and I counted the cat as one. “Too big for us”. “Too big? But you can afford it” “That may be true, but it’s too big, we don’t need that space”. The conversation could have ended there, but insistence is too much of a temptation… especially, when you don’t have many prospects. If you thought that the decision...
Most people say: “It’s too small for a PPP.” They’re wrong. In fact, this one might be your best lesson yet. In Eldoret, Kenya, the local government pulled off a PPP for solar-street-lighting. Project size: approx USD 23 million. Yes… 23 million US in a country in Africa… In a PPP! More data: Scope: ~20,000 LED street-lights + around 3 MWp solar + 10 MWh storage. Goal: Replace ageing lighting, reduce cost, save lives, cut emissions. And this is why you should study this PPP Project: 1. Small...
The world is at war. Not sure if you realized it. Take a look. The far left and the far right. Work–life balance. Working hours and retirement. More rights and fewer taxes, or more; housing, precarity and the minimum wage… Pensions; emissions, plastics and manatees. Republic or monarchy. “No immigration” or open borders. Separatism or globalism. Fake news; the killers from one side or the torturers from the other, from this war or the other one… And football, rugby, the Black Friday and a...
