You are no longer a child — I left my parent’s home to go and live in a hostel when I turned 19. I didn’t get kicked out. I didn’t go on drugs. I didn’t go to be a criminal. I didn’t go to be a womanizer. I just went to find something that I couldn’t find…

No doubt about it. — The other day I was watching Unsolved on Netflix, a series that tells about the unsolved case of Tupac and The Notorious Big, and something caught my attention quite a bit. The word “You Can Believe” is repeated in every single episode. I said I will make a connection between…

I’m going to give you a remedy today. — I keep thinking about a story I experienced when I was a manager of a web project. I had some people on the team who made web pages very well. Some were complaining: “I have to do more and more and I don’t make much money” In the end, the…

In the beginning, they could not pay much — not because they were poor, but because they preferred to save. After many years, their…

It’s not about saving more or about climate change. — The other day I found this quote from Warren Buffett on Reddit: “Price is what you pay, value is what you get in return .” A phrase often used in the investment world. It’s also something the Bitcoin brothers don’t understand. …
