He does seem very proud to wear his flying suit with his name badge!! I bet at a party you would have no problem working out who was the pilot in the room.
I do wonder why he left the RAF after only seven years - perhaps redunancy?
It does make you wonder why he has not gone in pusuit of commercial flying? Perhaps Forex trading seminars will make him more money. Perhaps he aspires to be like Greg Secker
The Flying Trader
THE LIFE OF GREG SECKER
Master trader, entrepreneur, philanthropist and international speaker are just a few of the terms used to describe Greg Secker. A multi-millionaire by his twenties, Greg has gone on to create and run one of England's most successful companies and blazed a path for the everyday-man in the street to walk towards financial freedom. Greg is proud to own Europe's top trader coaching company and is passionate about helping people learn how to be entrepreneurs.
Greg's History
Greg's career began in Thomas Cook Financial services. He then moved over to the foreign exchange business to run a brand new business entitled the Virtual Trading Desk™. VTD was the first online real-time Forex trading platform, allowing customers to receive real-time quotes for huge foreign exchange transactions. His career quickly soared and at the age of 25, Greg was a Vice President at Mellon Financial Corporation, then a major Fortune 500 investment bank in the United States (not bad going for a man in his early twenties.) Here he was lucky enough to be working around some of the very best traders in the world - with exclusive access working with high-powered Forex traders every single day.
Using the very same trading strategies discovered on his travels around international trading floors, Greg's personal trading account grew to the extent where it allowed him to make a choice. Leave or Stay? Already a now wealthy man, Secker decided to retire as vice-president of firm Mellon Financial Corporation at the age of just 27 to set up a trading floor from his home. In just 3 short months from officially retiring, Knowledge to Action was born.
Knowledge to Action
In the past 8 years, more than 90,000 people have attended Knowledge to Action's various trading seminars and workshops, where they learn how to produce a second or replacement income trading the stock and currency markets.
With offices in the London and Sydney and partners in Singapore and America, Knowledge to Action employs 150 people worldwide. The companies' meteoric success has been recently highlighted in the 2009 National Business Awards as a finalist for growth and innovation.
They went on to pick up a prized finalist position in the 2010 London Excellence Awards, and most recently claimed 49th place in the 2010 Sunday Times Fast Track 100 Awards- a Sunday Times initiative co-sponsored by Virgin that recognizes UK's Fastest growing companies.
Greg has always loved speed and as a young boy he was an exceptional sprinter and a daredevil rally car driver, a passion that still remains firmly a part of his boyish character. A sneak peak into his garage complete with Lamborghini's Murcielago SV and an Aston Martin DBS will confirm this.
Greg lives in London with his partner, Katherine and their son Zac.
Most people prefer a nice office to trade, not Greg - he prefers a R44...
