Who ?Steven Marks (Founder of GYG) in the SYD QF F lounge on Thursday.
Still riding high off the back of an IPO that took a lot by surprise. Must have been the AI in the Guac!
Oh yep anyone making millions Orf IPOs are no longer invisible
I looked at the AFR Young rich list of 100
Aside many are 40 and drop out inn 2025
It’s littered with elite sport stars (NBA)
and One property developer
And one who took over the existing family business
The rest are IPO or acquisitions capital gains in vast numbers. That share market has a lot to answer for financial success of start-ups

He’s actually been around for years (GYG was set up in SYD back in 2006). One Burrito shop in Newtown to 200+ now. Including the USA (which is like shipping coal to Newcastle).
He was personally involved in setting up the shops initially and I spoke to him on opening day of the 2nd GYG in Bondi Junction (Westfield) a few years ago. Seems quite pleasant and genuine. Made a shed load in the meantime.

Chances are he'll also be paying a visit to his good mate, Sam Neill.

Ariana and Cynthia were on QF12 with me, just landed.
Unsure about Jonathan Bailey or the actor playing Boq.
I thought I saw Cynthia before boarding at LAX.
Actually, after googling, I think Ethan Slater was on the flight. No men as tall as Jonathan Bailey in that group.

Im sure he can afford to buy F or J outright (probably still gets the staff discount).
