South African born investor and entrepreneur, Tristan Labuschagne, has found and decided to share his secret in creating financial freedom through financial education and is taking the opportunity to help other people achieve the same success.

Tristan Labuschagne, currently residing in Australia, has had many ups and downs with the path to financial freedom. After having survived a severe car accident and held at gunpoint as a child during a robbery, Tristan has been taught the hard life lesson in his youth that there is no-one alive that is guaranteed or entitled to live another day. Tristan gave up his ideas of how the world works and decided to help try and change one life at a time. After achieving his success, Tristan joined his successful businessman father, Conray Labuschagne, founder of Work Your Wealth (WYW Wealth 4 All).

Work Your Wealth, a motivational speaking seminar and personal development company provides financial education programs and teaches students about wealth creation to live a life of purpose and fulfillment. Work Your Wealth has helped over tens of thousands of students achieve financial freedom.

Tristan’s secret to success which he has now shared is that he has maintained a humble, yet hungry attitude to always take massive action in making a difference in his own life, and the lives around him. Tristan acknowledges his success and gives credit to his mentors, especially his father, and loved ones. Tristan believes that rather than re-invent the wheel, find the mentor or leading authorities in the industry and learn from them directly. By learning their secrets of both successes, and failures, you can follow a system that is already proven to work rather than wasting thousands of hours and precious time trying to make a discovery that is currently already being implemented by others. Tristan has implemented these traits into his personality and approach in life.

Tristan is excited to announce that, seeing as Work Your Wealth cannot present seminars now due to social distancing, travel restrictions, and lockdowns as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, Work Your Wealth has adapted to work from home learning-based format for their seminars. Students can now access the program at any time, from anywhere and it is 100% personal to the individual. Both coaching and training are provided in the program, so anyone from any background and any age, can escape financial struggle and move towards financial freedom.

Tristan stays motivated, seeing the success of people who have stopped sacrificing their time for money, have achieved financial freedom and are helping others do the same, fulfilling the mission and vision of Work Your Wealth, to help as many people as possible achieve financial freedom, doing whatever it takes.

Private Listings by Harold X. Clarke, a real estate platform operating across Hawaii, is rewriting how properties are bought and sold in the region. Unlike larger firms reliant on public listings and mass marketing, Private Listings’ strategy prioritizes personalization, privacy, and meticulous curation of ultra-high-end, off-market properties, including oceanfront estates, gated community residences, and architectural masterpieces.

Harold Clarke, founder of Private Listings, describes their method as one that rejects “cookie-cutter solutions in favor of understanding the nuances of both buyers and sellers.” This approach has resonated with ultra-high-net-worth individuals (UHNWIs) seeking refined and discreet real estate transactions.

The Hawaiian real estate market remains a hub for global investors, with the median price for a single-family home in the state reaching $900,000 in 2024, according to the Hawaii Association of Realtors. Within this competitive landscape, Private Listings is building up to be a trusted name for properties that extend beyond luxury into generational investments.

Challenging the Industry Norms

Private Listings deliberately avoids the conventions of large-scale real estate firms. By focusing on fewer, higher-value properties, the company ensures that each transaction is treated with the same level of care and confidentiality.

Public listing platforms, while effective for broader markets, often expose sellers to unnecessary attention or unqualified inquiries. For Clarke, this model is misaligned with the needs of UHNWIs. “Privacy isn’t a luxury for our clients—it’s a necessity,” Clarke explains.

This philosophy has led Private Listings to handle some of Hawaii’s most significant real estate transactions, including off-market properties valued at over $40 million. Its success is not measured by the volume of listings but by the depth of trust built with clients, many of whom return for subsequent transactions.

Adapting to Changing Client Demands

While Private Listings maintains a foundation of traditional practices, the firm also recognizes the evolving needs of its clientele. The global real estate market is increasingly influenced by concerns over digital security, with a 15% rise in data breaches targeting high-net-worth individuals in the past three years, according to cybersecurity firm NortonLifeLock.

To address these risks, Private Listings employs rigorous screening for potential buyers and uses secure platforms for communication and transactions. The firm’s “by invitation only” model ensures that clients remain protected from the pitfalls of public exposure. Clarke notes, “Our goal is not just to sell homes but to create an environment where clients feel safe and confident during every step of the process.”

The Human Element in Real Estate Transactions

Despite advancements in technology, Private Listings firmly believes that real estate transactions cannot be reduced to algorithms or automation. Unlike firms that depend heavily on online data aggregation, Private Listings emphasizes human connection and insight.

The company’s sales strategy integrates personalized client interactions, in-depth market analysis, and years of experience navigating Hawaii’s unique real estate ecosystem. Clarke’s background in managing family assets and his global perspective is significant in shaping this essence.

Future Directions for Private Listings by Harold X. Clarke

As Hawaii continues to attract global attention, Private Listings aims to expand its influence within the state while maintaining its core principles. The company is currently developing a new platform to streamline services for UHNWIs, blending their demand for discretion with seamless access to Hawaii’s finest off-market properties.

Additionally, Private Listings is strengthening its ties with local communities, recognizing that sustainable growth benefits both the company and the islands’ ecosystems.

Private Listings by Harold X. Clarke has set itself apart in Hawaii’s real estate scene by moving away from the typical mass-market approach. Through a mix of traditional values and modern sensibilities, the firm continues to define what it means to transact ultra-high-value properties with integrity and care.
