365 days since I started this newsletter. And so many things have happened. ​ Investors for my real estate businesses. Increase in social media (followers and engagement) by 3x Thousands of dollars in courses sold. New friends, lots of fun and much more. ​ The reason why I started this newsletter were some friends who were not very good at investing their money. Being an ex-banker and someone that talks on regular basis with funds, private equity, investors and entrepreneurs from all around the world, I was totally ignorant about how important is to know the basis for building your financial freedom. This is why I started with a course about investing… the most popular, by far, even if people know me for infrastructure and real estate. ​ Well… in that course, I created the portfolio with real cash (my cash – 100.000EUR or 140600.84 CAD dollars) for a relatively conservative risk profile aiming retirement in 15 years, starting 30 September 2023. ​ You have to have skin in the game to play this game… did you know that more than 80% of fund managers don’t invest in their funds??? This is why… I said to myself that I won’t do the same. ​ Here are the results of that portfolio. ​ 30 September: 140,600.84 31 October: 139,533.02 30 November: 149,311.00 31 December: 152,101.00 31 January: 158,959.08 29 February: 165,329.06 31 March: 169,995.03 30 April: 167,714.94 31 May: 176,419.64 30 June: 179,177.74 31 July: 182,027.52 30 August: 182,772.25 ​ ​Return since creation: 29.999%. ​ If you are interested about that course, you’ll find it below. ​Invest better than 99% of people... including fund managers - only 49.90/month​ Some will say "tomorrow", or "I'm too busy", or "I'll think about it"... in the meantime, my portfolio will continue to make money. In the next weeks, let’s talk about infrastructure and real estate. ​ 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.

Consultants are vampires. Old manners, old customs, old dresses, old mentality… they behave as frozen in time. Of course, not all of them. But think a little about it. If you wonder why the construction industry is so behind, what’s their responsibility? In theory, these guys should bring innovation and modernity to the industry. They are the ones that know the most, right? The ones that design our building, bridges and roads… But, a bad revenue structure can fire back and create the wrong...
Many people don’t believe it but you can become who you want to be. But you need to want to become that person. And don’t listen to me. Look at the data and evidence. One of the classic stories in the field of self-fulfilling prophecies is of a computer in the UK that was accidently programmed incorrectly. This computer was supposed to be used by a school to put children in the “right” classrooms, i.e., in the classroom of smart people and in the classroom of the dumb people. Yeah… English...
A friend asked me a couple of days ago. What’s your opinion about the debate, who won? My answer was short and to the point. “I didn’t watch the debate. I didn’t read about it. I simply don’t care.” Look. If you worry or care about who won the debate or who will win the elections, you are in trouble. Mentally in trouble. You’ve got a mindset issue. A disability. People work and work… and work and work. Many hours. Many. Many. And still, they don’t make much progress. Same salary… well,...
