‘My parents haven’t given me a single cent’: great-nephew of Australia’s second richest person out to prove himself

How does the grand-nephew of Australia’s second richest person prove himself?

By creating a tech start-up of course. Multiple, in fact.

Nineteen-year-old Tamir Triguboff — whose great-uncle is 84-year-old Meriton property developer Harry Triguboff, listed by the Australian Financial Review as having a net worth of $11.43 billion, making him the second richest Australian behind Anthony Pratt — has already sold one of his companies.

This all without the help of his privileged family, he rushes to point out.
