GordonBrownSpentMyFuture Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 2:35 minutes of unrelenting tediousness. Check the awesome editing - where they do that at? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0kPFA1UPYE That video is something else. 1:16 - 1:28 : "I've 3.8 million dollars worth of sales revenue and at the same time I've been involved in setting up and running businesses making - and losing - 30 million pounds". Err... yeah, you might want to be quiet about that last bit, Jonathan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidcameron Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Can anyone dig out which company he floated with a value of £30m, I assume on the AIM? There's lots of guff in all the press stuff but I can't seem to find what it actually was. I assume it's gone bust which is why the cash ran out. Looks like it was ASAP Plc which withered around 2002. It was a consultancy company (who'd have guessed). I think statement "I made and lost £30m" contains a large chunk of artistic license. The company might have received £5.4m of external funding at one time (on the OFEX) but it look like it was after JBs had left. I think this chap as the same grasp of financial reality as Grant Bovey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordonBrownSpentMyFuture Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 The start of the video reminds me of someone else. Even the voiceover is scarily similar.. Jonathan is a narcissist and likes to talk about himself in the third person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davidcameron Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 It's gone from the website now. Chamberlains, Kingsteignton have removed this property.

richc Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 It appeared on RightMove again as a new listing about 3 or 4 weeks ago -- with an asking price of £2.5 million or something.

hpc-craig Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 n the article it says: To be fair' date=' he has fallen victim to the sharp deterioration in the market. The Old Bakehouse, a six-bedroom property in Tuckenhay, a village near Totnes, had belonged to his grandparents, but after inheriting a part share, he bought the rest from relatives in 2007 and set about remodelling it for the luxury market. [/quote']and houseprices.co.uk says: 13/08/2007 £412,500 The Old Bakehouse, Tuckenhay, Totnes, Devon, TQ9 7EQ Can anyone a bit more knowledgeable be able to tell me if the £412,500 was the price he paid for his share, or would the house have been reported at a proportionate value to his share (e.g assuming 2 people inherit he paid £206,250 and then it was reported at twice this.) Either way, whoever owned the other share had a very well, albeit lucky, timed exit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
