Humans of Finance: Simon Norris' Story

Get ready for a story that proves sometimes, the biggest setbacks lead to the biggest come-ups! We're chatting with the incredible Simon Norris, a man whose journey started not with a bang, but with a whimper… specifically, the sad demise of his Juice Van venture. Talk about a squeeze!

At his absolute lowest point, just trying to scrounge up some cash, Simon applied for a job as an "onion peeler" – and get this, he didn't even get that! But fear not, because that rejected onion-peeling gig was the universe's way of pushing him towards a much zestier future!

From there, he dove headfirst into the world of timeshares, eventually climbing the ladder to become a national training manager. And what's more hilariously perfect than helping people get finance for those timeshares, which then magically led him into the wonderful world of… finance broking!

With just one computer shared between four brilliant minds at the start, Simon and his three partners built an absolute empire: Club Financial Services!
