AUSTRALIAN swimming legend Grant Hackett OAM paid a visit to Shepparton last Wednesday to impart his wealth of knowledge on a range of topics including financial security, investments and life experience.

Grant has completed an MBA and is currently the CEO of Generation Life.

“When I was swimming, I was studying finance – I was always interested in business, but not too many people know that side of my life,” said Grant

“I went into banking straight after swimming when I effectively retired back in 2008.”
When asked by a member of the audience if he still enjoys a swim he laughed and replied

“Only in the bathtub.”
