Aussie rich listers at war: Dick Smith blasts billionaire Harry Triguboff and accuses him of ‘utter greed’ over his latest demands: ‘You have enough money’
Australian businessman Dick Smith has publicly criticised fellow rich-lister Harry Triguboff, the billionaire Meriton property developer, accusing him of "utter greed" over demands Triguboff has made that Smith believes are unnecessary given his existing wealth. The clash highlights a long-running rift between two prominent Australian entrepreneurs with sharply differing views on issues such as population growth, immigration and property development, which regularly bring the pair into public disagreement.
Smith, known for his outspoken stance against high immigration and population growth, has previously clashed with Triguboff, who has argued for increased immigration to support the construction and housing sectors. In his latest remarks, Smith reportedly told Triguboff "you have enough money", suggesting the property tycoon's demands were driven by self-interest rather than genuine economic necessity. The full details of Triguboff's specific demands were not fully outlined in the available report.
