Peter has spent over 45 years in the Financial Services Industry, and over the last 10 years has presented thousands of times to audiences in Australia and overseas. He believes the share markets are often guided by forces beyond reason. Their short term ups and downs can be linked to collective human behaviour, not a logical continuum of cause and effect.
His presentations have become legendary for their no-nonsense assault on popular wisdom. As a successful investor himself, his views have a firm base in the real financial world. In his very lively presentations, he emphasises that history repeats itself; that there's no such thing as a market "crash"; why investing for the long term is the surest way to tap the market's riches; why market volatility is not a measure of risk; and why looking backwards "can damage your wealth."
His wealth of experience combined with his insights into wealth creation through investment and his entertaining and energetic presentation style make him a highly sought after presenter at professional conferences and a financial commentator in the print and electronic media.
He has recently added the title of author having published Motivated Money, a book about investing dedicated to encouraging people to take responsibility for their financial futures. Although self published, the book has sold more than 35,000 copies; a testament to the appeal of his message.
