Columnist The Barefoot Investor
Scott Pape "The Barefoot Investor"
Scott Pape is a former investment advisor with one of Melbourne's leading finance firms EL & C Baillieu. He is also a media commentator, author and hosted his own radio show titled 'The Barefoot Investor' on 90.7 Syn FM.
Scott's book, The Barefoot Investor, a best seller in Australia, has now been revised and is soon to be released in Europe.
With appearances on A Current Affair, Mornings with Kerri-Ann and Good Morning Australia, Scott's profile continues to rise.
Scott is a man who sees it how it is. By his own admission, he "keeps it real". Scott understands that young people growing up are faced with a lot of pressures and, if they are to be successful, they are required to compete in an extremely competitive economic environment, where having a degree is by no means a ticket to a successful career and financial happiness.
Scott used his show on Syn FM, a student radio station, and his book, to improve the financial literacy among young Australians. Scott's goal is to "allow young people to make the most of their assets".
Pape has successfully been able to combine his knowledge, experience, and infectious personality through which humour largely prevails, to do what most people thought impossible - carve a niche in the financial market targeted at young Australians. Scott has used these attributes to "make money sexy", and deliver street wise strategies to people who simply don't do finance.
