Mi inquilino se fue el mes pasado.
Yo tengo 29 años. Él tiene 54.
Llevaba seis años viviendo en el piso que heredé de mi abuela en el centro de Madrid.
Antes de irse, me pidió café.
—No sé cómo lo hacéis los jóvenes —me dijo, mirando el contrato—. Yo a tu edad ya tenía mi casa pagada y dos hijos. Tú vives de lo que yo te pago.
Se hizo un silencio pesado.
—Paco —le dije—, yo no vivo de lo que tú me pagas. Yo gestiono un activo que mi familia sudó durante 40 años.
Él soltó una carcajada amarga.
—Tú no has sudado nada. Solo has nacido en el código postal correcto. Si yo no te pagara estos 1.200€, tú no tendrías ni para el café que nos estamos tomando. Estás asfixiando a la generación que de verdad trabaja.
Me entró ese calor en la cara. El peso de la culpa social que intentan cargarte por tener algo que otros quieren.
—Paco, si te parece caro, ¿por qué te has quedado seis años? —le pregunté—. El mercado es el que es. Si yo te lo bajo a 600€ por "bondad", mañana tengo a 100 personas en la puerta peleándose por entrar. ¿Eso arregla el problema de España o solo me hace a mí más pobre?
Él se levantó, dejó las llaves sobre la mesa y sentenció:
—Lo que te hace es parte del problema. Sois una generación de rentistas que no sabe producir, solo cobrar.
Se fue sin darme la mano.
El Resultado:
Al día siguiente puse el anuncio. En 4 horas tenía 40 solicitudes. Subí el precio 100€ más por la alta demanda. El nuevo inquilino es un chico de 25 años que trabaja en banca y me dio las gracias por elegirlo a él entre tantos candidatos.
La Reflexión:
En España se ha instalado una narrativa peligrosa: que tener propiedad es un pecado y que el propietario es el culpable de un sistema fallido.
Te llaman "explotador" por pedir el valor de mercado de tu propiedad, pero nadie llama "miserable" al Estado por no construir vivienda pública o por freírte a impuestos sobre ese mismo suelo.
Intentan que sientas vergüenza de tu patrimonio para que cedas ante el chantaje emocional. Pero la realidad es fría: la propiedad privada no es una ONG.
Gestionar lo que es tuyo con cabeza no te hace un villano. Esperar que los demás te subvencionen la vida porque "el sistema está mal", sí te hace una víctima por elección.
Poner límites al sentimiento de culpa es el primer paso para proteger tu futuro.

‼️🇪🇺 The EU's new Age Verification app was hacked with little to no effort.
When you set it up, the app asks you to create a PIN. But that PIN isn't actually tied to the identity data it's supposed to protect. An attacker can delete a couple of entries from a file on the phone, restart the app, pick a new PIN, and the app happily hands over the original user's verified identity credentials as if nothing happened.
It gets worse. The app's "too many attempts" lockout is just a counter in a text file. Reset it to 0 and keep guessing. The biometric check (face/fingerprint) is a simple on/off switch in the same file. Flip it to off and the app skips it entirely.

@salingergregor All escalators are bidirecional but are set in a single direction because people are dumb. It is actually better for its longevity if they run both ways or at least have it changed from time to time.

@BielReality Viado é foda. Era só perguntar o tipo de bolo que o amigo queria e dizer que ia entregar no próximo vídeo. Farmava duas vezes e ainda tinha a chance de dizer no vídeo as opções de bolo disponíveis.

@republiqueBRA Não entendi o comentário da galera aqui. Me pareceu um candidato bastante ponderado que representa fielmente o eleitorado. Não voto desde os 16 anos, mas dessa vez faço questão.

Eu fico meio triste com esses relatos do tipo
- 40 anos de idade
- 1 zilhao em patrimônio
- Solteiro sem filhos
São justamente essas pessoas que poderiam ser pais incríveis gerar seres humanos com uma formação sensacional, desfrutar do milagre de gerar uma vida e fazê-la crescer em corpo e espírito, mas ao invés disso preferem colecionae números numa conta corrente.
Enfim vivemos um presente triste e estranho.

@eurofounder Come on, that is competitive in Spain. Germany pays much better. At least 50 in Munich.
English

Hiring a senior AI engineer and had a phone interview with an American living in Munich
I offered €41k which is very competitive for Germany
He went silent for about ten seconds
"Is this weekly?" he obnoxiously laughed like Americans typically do
I calmly explained that it's an annual salary, and actually well above median in Germany
"Yeah, I currently make $350k plus equity so that ain't gonna work for me" he barked
I sighed and explained that equity-based compensation is a form of financial manipulation
"In Europe, equity is for business angels providing seed capital, and I myself own only 11% now" I said
He called me an "europoor" and hung up
That’s exactly why the US startups fail so often, overpaid engineers with terrible attitude
I do not understand how anyone can work with Americans

É mais fácil enriquecer no Brasil que na Europa.

La France est le pays qui te prend 50% de ce que tu gagnes, pendant toute ta vie. Et le jour où tu meurs, il te reprend encore 50% de ce que t'as réussi à conserver. Et malgré ça, il se retrouve avec 3000 milliards de dettes. Conclusion : La France est dirigée par des connards.

Things Americans believe about Brazil that are completely wrong:
"Brazil is dangerous."
São Paulo's murder rate is approximately 6 per 100,000. St. Louis, Baltimore, New Orleans, and Detroit all exceed 40. Latin America's largest city (the place most Americans picture when they think "dangerous Brazil") is safer per capita than St. Louis, Baltimore, New Orleans, Detroit, Memphis, and Cleveland.
"Brazil is poor."
8th largest economy on earth. 7th by purchasing power. GDP larger than Italy's. Unemployment at 5.3% (the lowest since 2012). 108.2 million tonnes of soybeans exported in 2025 ($43.5 billion). $18 billion in beef exports. $86 billion in revenue from a single meat company (JBS). $7.6 billion from a single airplane manufacturer (Embraer).
"Brazil only exports raw materials."
Embraer is the third-largest aircraft manufacturer on earth. Half the regional jets in America are Brazilian. WEG is a $40 billion industrial manufacturer that exports to 135+ countries. Nubank serves 110 million customers and is worth $85 billion. The Manaus Free Trade Zone assembles Samsung phones, Honda motorcycles, and LG electronics inside the Amazon.
"Brazil's financial system is backwards."
Pix processes 6-7 billion transactions per month. 170 million users. 93% of the adult population. The Fed launched FedNow nearly three years after Pix. Adoption: minimal. Brazil has Open Finance with 60+ million active consents. The US does not. Brazil has an active CBDC pilot (Drex). The US does not.
"The currency is unstable."
Brazil's Central Bank raised rates to 13.75% before the Fed started hiking. It fought inflation faster and harder than most major central banks in the 2021-2023 cycle. BCB independence was formalized by law in 2021 with fixed four-year terms. The dollar touched R$5.00 for the first time in two years. The Ibovespa hit 16 all-time records in 2026 and is up 22% YTD.
"Nobody invests in Brazil."
Chinese FDI grew 113% in 2024. The US committed $565 million to critical minerals. The EU just signed its largest trade deal ever (720 million consumers, 90%+ tariffs eliminated). BTG Pactual reported "enormous increase in interest from large pension funds and sovereign funds." The Ibovespa gained 30%+ in dollar terms in 2025.
"The Amazon is being destroyed."
Brazil still holds 60% of the Amazon rainforest. It has a higher share of renewable electricity than any major economy on earth (87%). The EU-Mercosul deal requires deforestation-free certification for all agricultural exports starting late 2026. Brazil powers itself with water while exporting oil. Very few countries on earth can say the same.
The gap between what Americans think they know about Brazil and what is actually true is wider than any valuation gap in financial markets.
That gap is the opportunity.
Next time someone tells you Brazil is "risky," ask them what they actually know about it.
Most of the time, the answer is nothing.

@ALTIEREalt Não seria mais barato, seria impossível, ainda mais naquela época. Você não entendeu ainda que o dinheiro estatal é infinito? Existem inúmeras evidências da farsa que são, no mínimo, interessantes. Sem falar nos vídeos que são ridículos, parecem filme do chapolin.
