RE: interesting opinion/read/take on Giles14 Aug 2021 21:23
Hi Tucson, have no doubts the guy is a prolific businessman, also looked over his holding companies history, Giles has his fingers in so many unrelated businesses its clear he's game to try anything, and why not indeed, a diverse empire reduces risk rather like a shares portfolio. From what i have read the guy is quite ruthless, often a good trait in business, but i would suggest that it is also wise to be fair reasonable and actualy likable as an individual, especially when trying to prise investment monies from other hands to fund. The article paints Giles as not such a person, but who's to know realy certainly not anybody on here.
Not got a clue about cricket (im not very sporty minded at all im afraid), so happy to accept what you say on that front, nice to hear its not just footballers seemingly creaming the cash in, presume the cricketers arent quite so well paid as them!
I did indeed note his charitable efforts, very noble and gracious way to spend ones time, but like you insinuate i think it would be wise to focus on his investement businesses a little more - i mean how much time can he actually spend on Kazera with so many other interests to juggle at the same time? Maybe that is reason for the 'continual silence' issue we have here.
You'd think, with the EV revolution going on he'd be singing from the tree tops in a VERY loud voice.
