Andrew Dimitri is the Managing Director and a co-founder of Planet Wealth, and author of numerous books on a variety of investing strategies. Andrew started investing in the mid 90's, and by the end of the decade had perfected his "Selling Insurance" strategy. He was able to retire from the family business soon after and live off his investments, only working a few minutes per week. Then in 2004, in conjunction with Bill Stacy and Scott Robertson, Planet Wealth was founded.

"The idea behind Planet Wealth" Andrew says, "was to create an ‘educational' company that doesn't just focus on theory, but actually teaches the strategies that we use. Our company has been, and always will be, built around the principle of ‘don't do as I say - do as I do'. We literally use these strategies ourselves to fund our lifestyles, and we back it up with sharing the exact trades we do on the Planet Wealth Trading Diaries"

Andrew believes in putting his money where his mouth is, and gets considerable satisfaction out of sharing his knowledge of several stockmarket strategies with Planet Wealth members.

Andrew is now a sought after public speaker, but he always insists on providing real, usable content in his presentations. "I don't do ‘fluff' - just real content and actual details on strategies that I use myself. The day I stop using the strategies will be the day I stop talking about them!"

Like his mentor Warren Buffet, Andrew is a self taught value investor, and as the chief trader for Planet Wealth, uses his extensive knowledge and talent in valuing companies to find undervalued and high growth stocks that suit each particular strategy.

John Howell is the Chief Trader for the Planet Wealth Live E-mini Trading Room and E-mini Trading Diary, as well as the technical trader for the Option Spreads portfolio. John is a full time professional trader and specialises in short term technical trading on both the Australian share market and futures markets, specifically trading the S&P500 E-mini. John recently appeared in the book ‘Secrets of Stock Market Traders Exposed!’ (by Dale Beaumont) alongside many world class traders and investors.

Like every trader starting out, John had some initial wins, but many more failures, and it was only through many years of self-education, engaging private mentors and full time ‘real world’ trading, that John was able to become one of the very few long-term successful traders. John has now honed his skills and is able to make a substantial living as a full time professional trader.

"I have gone through so many different jobs it’s not funny" John says, "from a landscape gardener, to a car detailer, to a salesman, but after experiencing trading I don’t think I will ever look back!"

"From my experience with personal mentors, I know I can generate profits on a regular basis from a strong trading plan coupled with the charting and technical skills I’ve learnt over many years. And I know anyone can do it with the right support."

"That’s why I love to coach and mentor others - because I know how important it is, and how much it helped me become successful at trading."

John is passionate about trading and is now focused on educating other traders and imparting his knowledge to those with a similar passion. He has the sincere belief that anyone with the right attitude and skills can make money through trading, and he is determined to help as many people find success as possible.

John now runs the Planet Wealth Live E-mini Trading Room and E-mini Trading Diary, where you can spend several hours every trading day with John as a personal mentor and coach, learning all the skills necessary to become a successful trader yourself.

Scott Robertson is a co-founder of Planet Wealth and Non-executive Director of Planet Wealth Pty Ltd, and has been good friends with Andrew Dimitri for many years. As friends they also became investors, and together they started several investment companies, and along with their own money used these to develop some of the strategies now used by Planet Wealth.

Scott has an extensive background in finance, credit, banking and investing, he brings to Planet Wealth vast experience and education.

Working for a major banking institution in his early years he secured a firm grounding in lending and legal and quickly escalated through the ranks of management.

He left the bank to become an independant finance broker and mortgage manager and ultimately made the progression to a licensed financial planner under one of the largest dealer groups in Australia.

As Scott puts it, "working for someone else was never in my grand plan", and very soon he established his own finance and planning company. Whilst building this business his investing with Andrew Dimitri became more and more successful as they fine-tuned their strategies, and soon he was able to sell his interest in the business enabling him the flexibility of work/life balance that Planet Wealth hopes all its members can achieve.

Chris is the IT Manager at Planet Wealth. He has a background in electronic engineering and software development and looks after everything technical at Planet Wealth. His position at Planet Wealth is to make sure that everything runs smoothly behind the scenes, so the less you notice him the better he is doing his job.

But if a problem does arise then there is nothing that he can’t solve when it's related to computers. He is also available to assist members with any technical difficulties accessing the Planet Wealth resources.

Apart from his interests in everything technical, Chris is also a keen investor himself which makes his involvement with Planet Wealth an ideal place to put his skills to use. He has his own money in the same strategies that are taught and shared at Planet Wealth.
