From Refugee to Multimillionaire: Don Ha on Real Estate Business & Overcoming Bankruptcy

Don Ha was born in Vietnam then spent a couple of years at a refugee camp in Hong Kong before his family got relocated to NZ in 1980 with no English and little more than the clothes they had on.


Despite this massive disadvantage, Don Ha became a New Zealand rich lister through real estate with a net worth of over $100 million.


Then during the GFC, Don was declared bankrupt. And in the years since then he has managed to find success a second time.


This podcast is a part of the Don Ha story: Rags to riches to rags and back to riches. A story of resilience and recovery.

We talk about his early memories from life in refugee camps.

His aspirations to achieve more than just working in the family bakery.

His reflections on spending $2 million dollars to buy a horse.

Lessons learned about himself and others from bankruptcy and receivership.

And much, much more.

NZ Police’s Lead Crisis Negotiator - Lance Burdett on Mental Health Epidemic, Napier Siege & More!

LANCE BURDETT PODCAST:


This conversation needs to come with a strong warning- it covers a lot of disturbing things the guest has seen in his line of duty in the NZ Police.


Lance Burdett is a former police crisis negotiator, specializing in dealing with high-risk situations, including hostage negotiations, suicide interventions, and major criminal incidents.


After 2 decades with the police and suffering severe burnout, he transitioned into coaching and consultancy, focusing on mental resilience, stress management, and communication strategies.


Lance is also an in-demand speaker and author, known for his expertise in psychological well-being and de-escalation techniques.

This is part of the Lance Burdett story.


In this conversation we talk a lot about mental health- dealing with depression, understanding the inner voice, how to seek help and lots of practical tips from a man who has experienced depression himself and seen many others at their absolute lowest.


Then there is the stuff from his 20 year police career- being at the coal face in crisis situations, including the Napier siege and other high-pressure negotiations where, in his words, you deal with the dealing with the sad, the mad and the bad.


Running the 111-call center,


His recollections of working for Helen Clarke as her personal protection and much much more.
