Hi Peter
I just want to say up-front, that I am in no way implying that you are anything less than a standout achiever in field of investment. I am not making this statement to be a kiss-ass - I just want you to know that I am not a troll looking to stir up trouble.
I guess the title pretty much says it all.
Please excuse me for being so brazen as to ask this question....
So, why aren't you on the list?
Is it because:
a) You are too old? (over the age of 40)
I must admit I don't know your age (which is why I have to ask). I have heard anecdotal reports that you are in your mid to late 30's, but I really don't know.
Hence a) is a real possibility (no offence).
b) You have insufficient net wealth? (you need a minimum of $10m)
Just to clarify - I am not asking for your bank balance and PIN.
A couple of years back API did some stories on you and if I have the text right it was reported that:
Today, Peter has a net worth of around $20 million, which has been accumulated primarily through property investing. His property portfolio is valued at more than $50 million... and its value is rising fast.
So I would find b) very hard to believe.
c) You are deemed by BRW not to be "self made"? (only self made people qualify for the list)
In "Wealth Magic" you spoke of going from broke Checkout Chick (Guy) to where you are today. Driving around in a dump of a car and then later a Ferrari, etc, etc.
In the API article it mentions that your father was a CBA Manager - hardly the stuff of silver spoons.
So I would find c) to be an unlikely answer.
d) BRW's researchers are stupid and don't visit bookshops or read API and otherwise live in a cave?
Now this I can believe. As unbelievable is it is.
After all it is not as though you are publicity shy (again, no offence meant).
Would you mind clarifying for us?
Very much appreciated.
