Kerry Packer, the richest man in Australia has passed on to the wide blue yonder. A very controversal figure, he has made his mark in Australian history.I had the pleasure of meeting him in a business convention where he was a Guest speaker. May he reat in peace.

On a lighter note, think of all the coins you can buy from his billions.
