Q.-Do you have a fixed-rate mortgage?

We haven't, we've moved many times, but our entire family environment has a fixed-rate mortgage.

It was the key.

And we said it. How do you remember that December 17? Like a fateful day, we would erase everything. And the day after? It really was immediate.

They called us and told us everything and the next day we couldn't connect to the company email.

On December 31 they entered our house to take our things.

They told us that same day: either we were going to pick them up on the 1st or they would leave them on the street. Do you believe that everything happens for a reason? (Silvia) Now we are different people.

If that had not happened, could we be investing in so many things now?

I don't know.

Personally we are much better than then.

Before, the standard of living we had...

We were living a yuppie life and we weren't prepared to make money.

But even though we are fine now, no one takes away our suffering: I would delete that day and that video. If only their bosses and not all of Spain had seen it, do you think they would have been fired? Of course not.

It was very strong, I recorded the video while at the company lunch.

They told me: "Sure, run, go and say the name of the company."

They saw the state he was in.

I sent it to my colleagues and my family and no one told me anything.

I don't know, didn't you see it anyway?

[laughs] We turned our phones off, went to dinner, came home, and we had 40 missing flames.

[the medium that published the video] saw us, edited that video and decided to take it out.

It seems outrageous to me: they prioritized visits to the video and going viral over reputation. They hit bottom but they didn't stop exposing themselves on the networks, how did people perceive them? (Silvia) It was bizarre.

People stopped us on the street to ask us for photos as if we were famous but we didn't even have enough to eat.

Am I famous and I have nowhere to drop dead? Did they say no to something? (Silvia) Actually, to many things... They offered us to do porn with a blank check.

We were very clear that not even for all the money in the world would we do it. What saved you?

Are they a couple? (Silvia) Yes, we are a couple and being together saved us.

People think that we fell in love while working but what's up, I met Simón in my town, all our lives, we went to high school and we've been together for nine years now.

If I hadn't been with Simón... I don't know if we would have endured.

It's hard to say but I know she would have tried to kill me.

Nobody understood me, not even my family. Internet: a nest of hate or...? People have been good to us.

Tenderness.

At first we had

but over time they realized that we are normal people who from one day to the next were left with nothing. Do you believe in the new year new life?

How long did they take to reemerge? (Simon) We've made quite a few new lives.

Since our life went to hell we have been changing cities a lot.

Now we are living in Barcelona.

A year and a half ago we decided to create a

and the marijuana company (it's all strictly legal) and we saw that people trusted us.

We have gone from having nothing to seeing 25,000 euros in the account of people who have trusted us. They were right with fixed-rate mortgages, what do they advise as visionaries for 2023? (Simón) We are making forecasts for five years ahead.

We are very farsighted with that advice but when we give we do not miss any: get out of bitcoin, get out of the stock market and buy dollars, no.

And above all, do not ask for a loan anywhere.

But if we say it, it is because it is very clear.

We are not witches.

Simón and Silvia do not hang up the WhatsApp call without remembering their great achievement, from which they expect great results in 2023: a

from which they have already collected their first plantation.

They also talk about their dream: to create a

that can bring together all their projects.

"That whoever trusts us can invest in everything we do at the same time."

They also want to one day become the

.

One that accepts everyone.

Where investments and projects that the bank "does not accept" can be carried out.

"It would already be like playing success, because from the video, they don't want to hire Simón at any bank," says Silvia excitedly.
