The rise and rise of Richard White from refrigeration mechanic to billionaire is a remarkable tale, but his sudden downfall is even more extraordinary.
The rise and rise of Richard White from a refrigeration mechanic and guitar repairer to one of the country’s richest men through WiseTech Global is a remarkable tale. But his sudden fall is even more extraordinary.
White founded WiseTech in 1994 with Maree Isaacs, who he met when they both worked at Sydney rock radio station Triple M. Over the years, the company’s growth and success has been entwined with White’s leadership. Even this week, after a string of front page revelations, some investors still worried that White’s exit would harm the company’s growth far more than the lurid disclosures about the businessman’s personal life.
Gibbon hung up when called, declining to comment. Isaacs did not respond. Gibbon, and his investment vehicles, also own 5.5 per cent of WiseTech and has been a shareholder since 2005. When she didn’t, he set about bankrupting her. Rogan retaliated with an explosive 143-page affidavit, alleging White was pursuing her not for the money but because they had once been in a relationship. He had offered to help her with her business too, she alleged, an offer which became tied to sex after a trip to New York. White and Rogan settled this week.Two months before launching his legal action against Rogan, White appeared on the’s podcast.
Nasser helped craft the deed the woman signed in March 2021. But on that same day, Sutherland Local Court heard Nasser was applying for an AVO against White. It was withdrawn several months later via a sworn affadavit. Relations with the Ibrahim family were repaired as corporate records indicate that Nasser was later a director and shareholder of Krazye Dave Pty Ltd, a company associated with one-time bikie enforcer Sofe Veiru Levi, better known as “Crazy Dave” Lima.
It was around this time Nasser was introducing Rogan to White. Rogan described herself on Instagram as a “beauty addict” and owned a laser clinic in Sydney’s Double Bay. Rogan was “sooo hot” Nasser just had to “message this stunning lady x”.
