The brain is an extraordinary organ when looking for causes to say no. In fact, unfortunately for your pocket and mine, many people are just empowered to say no. Politicians, public servants, flight attendants, utility workers, and so on. They see risks everywhere instead of solutions and ways out. Terrible sickness. With only a cure… Not depending on the no-sayers. That’s called freedom and a I-don’t-give-a-f*uck mindset where your brain works around solutions and to achieve your objectives. You cannot kill them, at least legally, you can just work around. Without the proper mindset… you’re doomed. If you have faced them, you know what I’m talking about. My way to freedom is real estate. With assets putting money in your pocket every month, life seems quite different. Some of my secrets, my numbers, profitability and much more, below.

The private sector. “Super expensive.” “Incredibly expensive.” “The private sector is making billions out of the poor, ingenious, and naïve taxpayer.” Give me a break. When your client...
You’re the preferred bidder. You’ve survived the RFQ bloodbath. You’ve outlasted two global consortia. You’ve negotiated 1,200 comments on the Project Agreement. You’re tired. But you’re smiling. Because you’re “there”. And your bonus, and your holidays to Fiji, “almost there”. Or so you think. In 2014, the East West Link PPP in Melbourne had a preferred bidder. Contracts were executed. Advisors were celebrating. Many, already paid. Then elections happened. Ahhh… the famous political risk of...
Yesterday I was talking about clarity.Or better said, about simplicity.If you’re not capable of putting it clearly, you don’t have the "pajorera" (faintest damn) idea what you’re talking about. Simplifying is a superpower. How many times have I seen the best technicians we could find for a task make a presentation to a Board of Directors.Charts.Twisted words beyond belief.More jargon… as if it were a competition to see who can pee the furthest.In the end…The sound of crickets.
