You want to get fit or financially free? Don't do this


You know that working 8 hours a day for over 40 years straight, just to retire and finally enjoy “the life of your dreams” in the last stage of your life has never been my cup of tea.

My goal is not the Lambo.

It’s not drinking overpriced wine… and obviously not New Zealand red wines.

I just want to own my time.

That’s it.

Some people call this financial freedom.

You know that I read about the subject.

Forums, blogs, books, and… from time to time I did it on social media.

Yes… it was a time where I checked those places.

Here is the problem I discovered.

If you check those sites that poison your brain, you’ll find a bunch of self-proclaimed “experts” telling you exactly what to do to reach financial freedom.

The problem?

None of them have actually achieved it.

Think about it:

Overweight people preaching health.

Government employees giving startup advice.

Broke financial gurus talking about “freedom” while watching their bank account hit zero on the 25th…

Come on… You have to laugh.

I don’t know about you, but I don’t listen to people like that.

Think again:

Want to get fit? Follow athletes, coaches, and nutritionists.

Want to learn business? Study successful entrepreneurs.

Want financial freedom? Pay attention to people who are already there.

That’s it.

And with projects or infrastructure, this works the same.

Think again please:

Want a bridge over the sea? Find those that have successfully done it before.

Want a tunnel under the sea? Find those that have successfully done it before.

Want a successful PPP? Find those projects that were delivered successfully

That’s it.

Want to know about a project that was successful despite all the odds?

Masa is the founder of a Japanese bank and one of the greatest investors in history. Once, the guy went to the authority responsible for issuing the licences required to sell internet services and threatened to set himself on fire if they didn’t give him one immediately. He had been asking for it for a while. Something many don’t understand is that success requires conflict. Raising up in the food chain too. Every time you try to grab what you deserve, a gatekeeper appears to tell you no. And...

People often ask me what books they should read. Infrastructure, project management, business management… I have a few that could definitely help you. But let me tell you something. Those who read a lot can teach a lot. Those who have done a lot can teach even more. That’s why I’ve always tried to surround myself with people with stripes. With scars. With little hair left. With dark circles under their eyes from fighting too many battles. And they also had to meet one more requirement… They...

Yesterday a few of you came with a question… If we prefer a good narrative to the truth, does it apply to PPPs? Absolutely. PPP includes the words Private and Public. This is meat for bored politicians and newspapers. You have conflicting words… Add Partnership and journalists queue to hit you in the face. No matter what statistics say. No matter how many successful projects have been delivered through a PPP. No matter the risk profiles, the alignment of the parties, the governance… that PPP...
