Más de 40 años casado, católico y fiel a sus raíces: Luis de la Fuente es el último resquicio de la España que fue.
Pero mientras el mundo mira sus goles, él dirige desde el banquillo con una filosofía estoica de hace 2.000 años. Estos son sus principios:
1. Nadie gana solo.
Former Central Bank of Kenya Governor, Prof. Njuguna Ndung'u, reflects on his fallout with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) over Kenya's monetary policy framework.
He makes the interesting case of the twin occurrence of high growth (>7.0%) & high inflation (13.0% - 14.0%) while the Fund's prescription was monetary tightening amidst static velocity of money.

Discipline keeps you focused. Negotiation opens doors. Silence protects your power.

‘The Arabs in old times used to say. Four things separate brothers: wealth, women, jealousy, and death. Four things make you lose your value among people: talking too much, laughing too much, lying and gossiping. Four things by which a wife ruins her home: stubbornness, anger, suspicion, and raising her voice. Four things by which a man ruins his home: distance, neglect, harshness, and stinginess.’
Dear son,
There are 4 types of wealth:
- Financial wealth - money.
- Social wealth - status.
- Time wealth - freedom.
- Physical wealth - health.
Be cautious of jobs that offer you 1 and 2 but rob you of 3 and 4.
MAN TO MAN,
As a father of 3 children, I’ve learned that once you teach your son these 12 principles of human nature, he naturally earns respect, avoids unnecessary mistakes and grows into the kind of man the world rarely produces anymore.
Italian Cypress are so good for landscaping. Extremely affordable and readily available in most towns here in Kenya. Make sure you get some and plant during this rainy season.
MAN TO MAN:
When You Start Making Good Money, Do This:
1. Buy fewer clothes, but wear the highest quality.
2. Eat premium food, not junk
3. Hire a helper for household chores. Buy back your time.
4. Upgrade your mattress. Sleep changes everything.
5. Invest in experiences, not just stuff.
6. Upgrade your financial adviser. The one who got you here won't get you to the next level.
7. Surround yourself with high-value people.
Small shifts. Big impact.
