How to not be broke: - Set a 5 year goal. “I want $x in on 1/1/2031”. - List benchmarks where you need to be each quarter. - Make a plan to get you to each next benchmark (and execute). - Don’t worry about future steps, just the next step in front of you. - Track weekly A big takeaway: It sounds trivial, but the goal setting + tracking is huge. Knowing the direction you’re going + tracking progress is game changing.

Hey agency owners and GTM Engineers, let me save you 2 years.

It’s everything we still use internally every day to land hundreds of leads/ day. What’s inside: - DM setting SOPs - 300k weekly impressions commenting SOP - lead magnet distribution SOP - lead tracking & CRM system - setter scaling system (for agencies) If you want free access, comment “SOP” and I’ll send it over.

Every time I say Portugal is an amazing country but absolutely nothing here functions properly I catch so much flack and blame for it And especially Portuguese people will blame and it's all because of me, myself and I Now you have the CEO of a $50B company @Cloudflare saying it too The government here simply doesn't function at any level, courts are extremely slow, running a business here is practically impossible and there's a perpetual shortage of people because nobody actually wants to work (you can get easily get €500/mo benefits here, so why work for a €750/mo minimum wage, only €250 more but you have to work :D) Meanwhile the young, ambitious and high IQ leave the country at age 18 because no opportunities The weather is absolutely perfect though, air quality cleanest in the world, the most beautiful sunsets, people are generally nice (outside of the service industry), the fresh food is actually good And Portugal has the opportunity of a lifetime, everyone in tech wants to move here and move their company along with it, and that could be a massive contribution to the economy creating high tech jobs, and elevate the population But it just feels they prefer to actively waste that opportunity

Honestly: across the board, Portugal has gotten significantly WORSE since we started making investments in the country. If the trend continues, we’ll stop investing. And if you’re considering it as a tech firm, you’d be crazy to without some hard reassurances from the government.

O único socialista que vale a pena ouvir antes de fechar a campanha eleitoral para as legislativas 2025. "10 milhões de piriquitos", by Sérgio Sousa Pinto👑

Buying a house is the worst financial decision I ever made except for buying Alibaba stock just before they arrested Jack Ma It only made sense because in my little beach town there's not a big supply of good rentals and most goes to Airbnb in the summer and stuff gets booked a year in advance Having the house, now with a home gym, jacuzzi and sauna we added and stuff like Starlink, is nice, a soon self sufficient fortress we can get back to But financially it will probably never be a good decision, which is fine But renting is NOT throwing money away, especially if the supply of rentals is good: I've rented all my life, lived in hostel dorms, hotel rooms, then suites, then apartments, especially in South East Asia the supply of housing is abundant, newly built and amazingly luxurious to live in The flexibility of not being stuck to a place is amazing The only argument I can think of for buying is 1) mine (no good rental housing supply) and 2) that most people don't have the cash lying around to just buy a house, so it's the only loan/leverage they can get for a big amount, but that loan is also not without risk (see underwater mortgages) If you do have cash and can buy a house with it, it's debatable if you should buy or not, because at that point you can have the flexibility of living in the most beautiful rentals and Airbnbs of the world and bouncing around the world, I did that I think what's important is breaking this cult of home ownership which is a real religion worldwide, with a lot of pressure put on people to buy or "get on the housing ladder early or be too late" as Dutch people would pressure me into it when I lived in Netherlands I think we should be quite wary of middle class people taking on a 30-year million dollar loan as it's literally a ball and chain There is a shortage of housing everywhere, the solution is to build more housing, one reason we're not building more housing is that it's beneficial for home owners if prices keep rising But prices only rise with shortage of supply, it's quite a messed up dynamic Realistically we WILL build more housing soon because the shortage we have worldwide is unsustainable and will cause revolt if we do not If that happens home prices will start dropping and it's not a good investment anymore Sorry for rant but yes interesting topic

No power, no internet, no phones. And weirdly... it was kinda beautiful. Saw people talking more in the streets. Kids were playing outside. Neighbors were chatting from their balconies. For a few hours, life felt simple again. Wild how fast we forget what real connection feels like.

Funny how last month the EU told everyone to prepare emergency kits for a few days... And now this power loss happens. Just a coincidence, right? 😂🤡

Wild times.

Right after the blackout in Portugal, people lost it. Supermarkets were packed. Long lines, total confusion. Everyone was grabbing toilet paper, 6L water bottles, canned food like it was the end of the world. It felt like the early COVID days again. Crazy how fast everything can flip.
