Red Wine, Reflection & The Good Life: An Aussie Bloke’s Early Retirement Story
In this laid-back, inspiring episode, I sit down with a true-blue Aussie legend — a man who grew up in the country, shared roadkill meals with his mates, built a business from scratch, and made enough money to walk away from it all by 52.
He now lives the good life, one that reminds me of an old Italian fella — sipping red wine, watching the world go by, and appreciating every second of this short time we’re given. We dive into the mindset shift that made him downsize, the lessons he learned chasing success, and why he believes time is the only real wealth.
We also chat about his son — a successful stand-up comedian making waves in London — and there are links to his work in the show notes below.
Whether you're dreaming of financial freedom, curious about simple living, or just love a good yarn from a classic Aussie character, this one’s for you.
