David Oldfield: Manly, Australia – 63

You might know David Oldfield from his stint in Australian politics as a founder of the ‘One Nation New South Wales’, but did you know he had a different career before delving into public office? The politician was an entrepreneur, running a couple of successful businesses before trying his hand in the nation’s politics.

Still, after his stint in the local government, Oldfield took up another career path, albeit an unexpected one, making a name for himself in journalism. The businessman worked for several radio and television networks, including ‘2GB’, ‘2UE’ and ‘SBS TV,’ where he drew massive audiences before retiring from the limelight altogether.
