It was during a family sojourn to the seaside town of Pescara, Italy, Rob DeDominicis first laid eyes on what would become the harbinger of his future. Andrew McKean writes.
ASIC had received many complaints about one man, and I lost money because I went into business with him. My due diligence showed nothing bad about him at all.
