project

Join Johanna and I as she shares the injustices that our sisters are globally fighting and why she created Project Monma; an organization that aims to raise awareness about violence and discrimination against women and girls around the world. It is a global problem and is not confined to certain countries and religions; it is everyone’s problem. Violence and discrimination by men towards women around the world is severely under-reported and therefore under-acknowledged.

This week we have one question that’s taking centre stage. But it’s one that A LOT of you have been talking about... so here’s Vicky asking the question on everyone’s behalf. 

Her question is about the HS2. Since Boris Johnson came into power there have been a number of mixed messages floating around:

“It’s going ahead…”

“It’s not going ahead”

“It’s over budget…”

“It’s only going to serve the north…” 

The list is endless.

Vicky is wanting to know what The Robs think of it all and what impact they think it will have on the likes of Manchester, Liverpool and Leeds.

Rob & Rob are big fans of HS2, so tune in and have a listen to what they really think of all these mixed messages.

Do you have a buy to let or property investment related question for Rob & Rob? You could feature on the next episode by giving us a call on 013 808 00035 and leaving a message with your name and question (normal UK call rates apply).

Peer pressure can make you or break you.  Your peer group largely determines your success in both business and life.  So it is critical to choose your friends wisely.  Do they influence you to dominate--or do nothing?

Truly successful entrepreneurs are ethical business people. From “giving what you want to get” to “treating your team well,” doing the right thing is a good thing--and good for business.
