Man on the Street – Jack Ramsay
AGE: 19
Founder of Hunters Race
What do you have for breakfast? I go with the classic peanut butter on Vogels, and a coffee as well.
What is your morning routine? On the usual day I wake up at six. Shower, match my watch with my outfit for the day. Then have breakfast and jump on the bus to uni. Once I’m there, grab another coffee, read the paper and check my emails, social media – and then off to class.
What is your dream car? At the moment, I’d have to say a black on black model X Tesla.
What is the top spot on your bucket list? It’s hard to choose but I’m really keen to go to Japan, maybe Tokyo or around Osaka way. And also Dubai at some point. It looks amazing.
What advice would you give to your 20 year old self? Well I’m not there quite yet. But keep working hard, be patient and good things will happen.
How do you stay motivated? I surround myself with supportive people, and I also set goals and try to achieve those within a certain time frame.
If you didn’t need money, what would you do? I’d probably play golf and paint pictures all day. Probably live in a winter house half of the year, and then a summer place, the other half – and do a lot of travelling as well.
What is your secret to success? Work hard, and have patience.
What is your best one-liner? Work hard, play hard.
What’s your favourite restaurants to frequent? It’s hard to choose one, but I am very fond of all the restaurants down by Wynyard Quarter.
What is your secret to living a longer, more successful life? Surround yourself with genuine people. People that support you. And stay positive, even when you get knocked down.
