Gustavo Razzetti, director general de LAPIZ
For Gustavo Razzetti, General Director at LAPIZ, people shouldn’t allow money to drive their emotions. Writing in be yourself, he made some considerations about what money should mean in life. “I’ve encouraged people not to put money first. To switch their focus on learning and building the right foundation rather than being obsessed about getting their next promotion” he wrote. For him, money should not be an indicator of success. “Doing something that is purposeful to you, that’s what matters in the end.” He also said that people should leave their money comfort zone and take risks. “Opportunities are not doors that are opened but the doors you cross. And nothing is more rewarding than realizing that the greatest risk would have been not to cross them” he said. “Don’t let money decide for you” Razzetti advices. “If you feel you want to leave a job, quit. Don’t use a job offer to get a salary raise in your current job. It will backfire on you” he said. He added that if people have clarity on what they want to do next, they should do it. “It’s easier than you think: just listen to your internal voice.” For Razzetti people should give your work for free only to those who are starting up and need a hand in kicking-off their venture. But most importantly “don’t sell your passion for free. Having to give up your soul to get paid for something you don’t like could feel worse that not being paid at all” he concluded.
