Episode notes

Ric Richardson, one of Australia's least-known but most successful inventors tells the incredible tale of how he patented a very clever piece of intellectual property that awarded him $530m dollar after Microsoft breached his patent.

The inventor of multiple inventions who has over 2.5 billion computers with his fingerprints on, shows that even with all the success he’s a humble down to earth Aussie spirit who embodies the mindset that if you “always take a chance” you’ll never lead a life of regret.

And if that doesn’t interest you the story at the end WILL blow your mind.
