An early childhood experience - an overheard conversation between adults speculating that the directive control of the world was in very few hands - proved pivotal, igniting an enduring fascination for the challenge of returning the jurisdiction of money to its legitimate owners, the general public. After local primary schools he attended an academic secondary school, Brisbane Grammar, before returning home to farming. He was active in the Junior Farmer/Rural Youth organisation, serving on its State Council for several years and participating in its debating competitions.In 1969 with his brother Don he bought Yaramulla, nearly 70 square miles of fertile undeveloped land in North Queensland, developed it as a cattle station, and later grew potatoes and other crops. They did all the development and stock work themselves, including water drilling. In the early 1980s this property was requisitioned by the State Government as a National Park, and subsequently has produced absolutely nothing at all. The property contained the Undara Crater and many lava tunnels which the brothers were the first to explore. In the 1970s Charles actively campaigned against the imposition of Death Duties and contributed to this tax's abolition throughout Australia. An avid reader, he has since his youth preferred the areas of history, politics, and finance-economics. He is currently an investment analyst, and advisor and director to a number of private companies. He edits a monthly journal on economic and political affairs.voir moins
