00:04

I've got two questions for each one of you.

00:07

Question number one.

00:09

How much money did you spend in your entire life so far?

00:14

That already takes a bit to estimate, right?

00:18

And question number two, did you spend your money wisely?

00:22

If you hesitate now and are not so sure,

00:26

it likely means you're not a good buyer, frankly,

00:31

because you have not even defined for yourself what good buying truly is.

00:37

And that -- sorry for the bitter truth --

00:40

despite your buying things pretty much every day.

00:44

good buying can have such a massive effect on your entire life.

00:49

And through your lifetime, you will spend a fortune, if not several fortunes,

00:54

considering we're in Dubai.

00:56

Spending it more wisely will either make you have to spend less

01:02

or, for the same amount, make your life more luxurious, comfortable,

01:07

sustainable, fun or whatever else you want it to be.

01:12

And the good news is there are people you can learn it from.

01:17

As a procurement leader in BCG, I work with them throughout the world.

01:21

High tech companies, auto manufacturers, American Big Pharma,

01:25

Middle Eastern oil companies,

01:27

from Swiss clock manufacturers to Middle Eastern mass producers.

01:32

They all have to buy a lot of things --

01:36

steel, spare parts, intellectual property rights, fruit.

01:43

Just last week, I did a live auction for a Norwegian salmon farm for fish.

01:49

My promise to you is if you learn from the combined knowledge

01:53

of these professional procurement teams,

01:56

you will be a good buyer for the rest of your life.

01:59

And on top, it's easy.

02:02

It only boils down to three rules these companies do right.

02:07

Number one, prioritize on what really matters.

02:12

Now that sounds simple, doesn’t it?

02:15

The truth is, it's not, because there's a few words missing.

02:21

Prioritize on what really matters for a group, together.

02:26

In every company, in almost every household, there's a few players.

02:31

And even for yourself, you're oftentimes not so sure

02:34

how to prioritize healthy food versus cheaper prices.
