A single decision can change your life, and that's exactly what Centuria Capital joint chief executive Jason Huljich learned when he came to Australia in the 1990s. Eliza Bavin writes.
David, what is this safety net of which you speak, that is only provided by your members? It's a nice emotive catch phrase you often trot out, but it's devoid of any real meaning.
