Whatever business Kerry Packer went into he made money on it. Sold the 9 network to Alan Bond for a billion dollars and then bought it back a couple of years later for $300 million. The guy had the golden touch.
I've just been watching "Howzat", the two part series about World Series Cricket, and it emerges that Packer was totally committed to the concept and the players, and still kept spending when it was clear he might lose the lot, and there was a very rocky road ahead. In the end, he made very good money from it, but that was never guarenteed. He backed a hunch, and could have lost a lot of money and his reputationn. Great admiration from me! Also, Lachy Hulme nails the Kerry Packer role!
Yep & wouldn't it have been a Privilege 2 work 4 him . Highly Intelligent Guy . Funny. And his come back line " there hasn't been anything important happening on the other side 4 years " was a Gem .
Great clip Gezza. I always loved this quote. “I pay the tax I am required to pay, not a penny more, not a penny less. If anybody in this country doesn’t minimize their tax, they want their heads read because, as a Government, I can tell you they’re not spending it that well that we should be donating extra.” - Kerry Packer
I'm Australian and i wonder why the people in country don't like successful people. As soon as anyone does well or has come from old money he or she is disliked . This man done so much for his family and country, I believe we need more people like him. RIP Mr Packer.
because he consistently worked against the interest of the public and destroyed freedom of the press and freedom of speech, something I'm stunned to find out people couldn't give a shit about anymore, I hope our children enjoy the great liberty weve left them, what a disgrace
Eddie Uromyeh well said he put defibulators in every ambulance in NSW tipped everyone once giving over 200k to shop owner who opened Early to serve him
Eddie : I believe that the attitude you talk about is actually harming this country. Many youngsters aspire to being tradies (nothing wrong with that) but often do so because being a doctor, lawyer, accountant or business owner is frowned upon by many. I am from a working class background but grew my own business up over 30 years and became quite well off. I have encountered this negative attitude towards successful people many, many times in Australia. Is it only coincidence that my Jaguar car gets far more scrapes and bumps in malls from supermarket trollies etc than my much bigger Holden did, when I had one?
The sentiment of Parkinson here is utter bullshit. Australia is built on opportunity for those who come from well to do backgrounds. The wealth of Australia has been founded upon some luck, the Gold rush, but mainly through religious institutions and large landholdings from a bygone era. Even to this day Private educational institutions garner much higher finding than public. The private health care system is propped up through tax write offs and government funding. The mining boom has been underwritten by the public purse and less than 20% returned to the fundees. I could go on but very few in Australia, let alone the world, care about fairness and a 'realistic futire for all'. Most folk are super selfish and happy within their modern cave. Sniffing their own farts.
I like Parkinson but it was still the sign of the times when the English thought they could talk down to an Australian and Kerry Packer stood his ground and still put Parkinson back in his place.
We don’t have wealthy business men, like Kerry Packer, in Australia any more. The wealthy one’s are to preoccupied serving different masters, pleasing different groups, and don’t have the flare, tenacity or power of Kerry Packer. Which is a bloody shame. We need someone who can give it back to politicians, when the politicians are getting too uppity. Look for the video of Mr Packer serving it up to a young Peter Costello. That’s how you deal with the politicians who have forgotten who they’re supposed to serve.
Kerry Packer became Parkinson's boss in 1984 when he bought a controlling stake in TV-am, ITV's breakfast television service which launched on February 1st 1983 and without Packer's financial help, would have gone down the toilet as a financial disaster.
Wait so you’re telling me he used lawyers to reduce his taxes within laws that the politicians themselves put in place to do the same thing? That would never happen! (Sarcasm)
@@thomasloveless4800 well sure, technically its legal but do you think its valid behaviour to try to find every flaw in the system like that? dont you think one also carries some responsibility besides laws? we dont need to talk about the incompetence of certain politicians
Karry packer respect from india the man who changed the world cricket he took cricket to a different level and he was the one who made cricket commercial and came with the idea that cricket can be as commercial as any other sport like football or boxing and etc the cricketers who are super rich know surely owe a lot to this man

Don't really like parkinson. Bit of a pleb if you ask me. Like most hosts seeking to be more evocative and controversial than there guests in a bid to reach fame and acclaim at a level that such a position should never warrant.

@@blindtoby8967 I took great exception to Parkinson's comments on Muhammed Ali after Ali's Death: he said Ali was unintelligent; Ali was the life & soul of the interview, but Parkinson felt he had not had sufficient deference- he was made a fool of by Ali who outargued, outdebated him on race & racialism.

There are excerpts from this interview quoted in Paul Barry's biography of Kerry Packer, but unfortunately this seems to be the only clip available at the moment.
He turned every wobbly legs politician into jelly...😂😂.. Hmmm Free world ideology of fear.. that is a classic of a toxic environment of democracy fear..😂🙌
Not general knowledge. Packer was placing massive bets in 1987 at Randwick races. in Sydney The big bookmakers where sharing his bets. Packer was losing 10 million coming to the last. He had a bet on the last of 11-2 million which won by a very short margin . So he ended up one million up on the day. Hard way to make an easy million. The bets were huge by todays standards but massive then.
What a time. Packer, 11million to 2 million on the last winner at Randwick to win a million on the day. LOL Bond " It is not how much you make that counts rather how much you can borrow". Laurie Connell. After a huge plunge by Laurie when Rocket Racer won the Perth Cup the stewards said the horse was to sick to test. The horses legs were still going up and down when they had to man handle the horse off the track LOL. Christopher Skase. Mr leverage. Holmes a Court. The master of stripping companies assets. Died way to young.. When Australia was a great country. Only down hill from now with Albo in charge.

Kerry negotiated with honour and purpose, his skills are sorely missed....his foresight would negotiate a most imaginative response to the Afghanistan Women's Cricket Test to nullify the politic....His belief and faith in a productive outcome, finessing the trajectory to fruition is exemplary....just ask any of those who accepted his invitations to participate in life's gamble🃏. Ita you are also a fine example benefitting from his wisdom, you are moulding the ONLY Australian owned media with honour and a purpose that I admire as an Australian taxpayer....if my taxes could be solely directed to fund the ABC presentations of Australia's human voice, I am sure Kerry would be fully supportive and proud to counter the culture of demonisation that reaches over 80% of the world's population limiting news and its worthiness.🧐💭📡🛰🤐🔫

I enjoy stumbling upon clips of him. Reminds me of “there will be blood” the main guy, goodwill?

Parkinson had no chance against Kerry! The guy absolutely demolished the Australian House of Reps in 1991!
What a show it was
Mopped the floor with them.
