I think I feel like going out for a bit. Small adventures are the best thing ever, as long as I get a good night’s sleep at a hotel every night :)
I know I’m comfortable, but I really love it that way. Walking to Copenhagen, riding a motorbike across the United States or riding a bicycle in California. It’s all great fun! as long as I don’t have to sleep in a tent that is :)

I have only done these “best of” videos for the last three years. I don’t know why I keep doing my real estate investor videos. Not that many views, not that many comments, but still super fun. I have tried not writing here, not doing videos, etc. But it’s weird not to. Beeing here makes me feel like I have a bit more purpose. I like that. Did you know that I have had this homepage up and running for more than 7 years by now? So.. which of these videos do you like the most? Well, Lars.. I kind of like the first one. and the second one is ok. The third one is growing on me :)
I'm not sure I am an average real estate investor, but anywhoo.. I filmed this a few days age as we were out to get some new a/c units for…
It’s nice to know that you get good food for cheap. I usually spend $6 on a meal that keeps me full and happy. That said, I do love hamburgers and crap too. My only problem is that I feel awful after eating bad food. I think it’s a combination of guilt and all the processed, chemical trash that goes through my body.
So, GO Chipotle! Thanks for existing :) If not Chipotle I’m a big fan of authentic Thai food or sushi. And a good Cuban sandwich.. and.. eh.
I find restaurant hard to enjoy. My mom cooks better than most people I know and I have taken advantage of some of that knowledge. The result is that I get more food, wine and quality if I buy the stuff and cook it myself. I also avoid being rushed and the bill is almost non existent in comparison.
That said! There are benefits to going out. I see the perks of having a waiter taking care of you and no dishes :) I like the cooking so that is not a benefit for me, but I also love outsourcing, even though I think I can do it myself.
In wrapping this up, we are back to real estate related stuff.

But I also know there is more to it. Like skill, timing, self-discipline, luck, etc. Or wisdom. I love the idea of being wise. I think I said it before, but there is a definition of wisdom that state: “the ability to make constantly good decisions”. In doing so, what can go wrong?
So now, back to what makes someone successful. Knowledge can be attained, the ability to act can be solved by motivation, wisdom comes from doing, skills can be learned, timing can be yours through study if historic cycles, self discipline you just have to man up and do it right, but luckily? How do we get lucky? Well. Let me tell you about the path to luck.
If you want to be luckier, start (more…)
The equipment is getting better and better. Sadly, my filming and editing skills aren’t quite keeping up. But I still love trying to be creative, even though I’m not as gifted as I want to be. Still. Room for improvement makes for nice challenges :)

The video above was shot in Port Richey, Florida. It’s a pretty run down area with lot’s of abandoned properties and foreclosures. The big recession in 2008 hit really hard all over Florida and it becomes very apparent in some areas, like this one.
Still. A mess like this creates room for new opportunities. Hence my real estate inspired video with some stories on how profits can be found everywhere. Even in places like this.
What is most striking to me is the massive amounts of abandoned commercial properties. (more…)
And his trade? Flowers! He peaked while selling carnations that he grew in most of his many greenhouses before moving on to grow and distribute roses. He passed in his late 80’s with one of the best nicknames in Sweden. “The Rose King” :)
I know there are neither carnations or roses in the pictures above, just some other flowers I found on my walk the other day.. Sorry!
So what did I learn from grandfathers entrepreneurship? He passed away before I was mature enough to understand all the lessons he could have taught me. But I do know he inspired me. He was the first to tell me that “You are going to be a fine businessman my boy” before I could walk.
Anywhoo. He did really well at times. He owned big gardens and greenhouses in Sweden and France. He lived a comfortable life and socialised with a lot of interesting people. He traveled the world and installed one of Swedens first private swimming pools (more…)
What is a proper Entrepreneur Dress Code? I don't think there is one? If you are an entrepreneur, you are a unique person doing your own thing. That means you…
My friend introduced me to him and for some reason I feel very good hearing him go through his theories on how to be your best. It’s all the same, Tony Robbins, Napoleon Hill and so on, but some people get to me better than others.

I know there might be too much of this at times. All the positive thinking and mental preparation, but it makes all the difference, so let it be that way. Let’s look at it like (more…)
