About my guest:

Mark Rolton is Australia’s most respected entrepreneur and property options strategist. Early in his career, Mark then a builder found himself in the devastating position of facing financial liability for one of his employee’s actions – to the tune of nearly half a million dollars. He was just 22 years old. Over three decades later, Mark has helped create 46 millionaires and 121 individuals who self identify as ‘financially free’.

With over 5311m of property options successfully transacted and $273.4m of residential property delivered to the Australian market through his development company Massland, Mark is a living example that anyone can turn their financial future around, free themselves from the monotony of the 9-5 and escape the crippling clutches of debt, forever.
