Global Greek Thrillionaire - Presenting Nik Halik!

Greek Australian Nik Halik has just turned 40! If you were to judge his age by his Bio you would think it more likely that he is much older... but don't let his age fool you...he started young and does it all!

He calls himself The Thrillionaire. He has the money and motivation to pursue a list of things he wants to do before he dies, but even then he's got it all worked out. After all, he wrote his Things to Do list when he was eight years old, not something a lot of us have done.

He's had lunch on the Titanic; flown in a MiG aircraft; climbed Mt Everest, and trained to be the first Australian (and Greek) civilian in space.

Born in Australia to Greek parents Konstantinos and Dionisia Halikopoulos, Nik Halik (Nikos Halikopoulos) is something of a living legend!

According to his blog, Nik became a multi-millionaire and amassed great wealth through savvy investments in property and the stock market in his late 20s.

As well as being a global wealth strategist, Nik is a successful entrepreneur, international speaker, astronaut, high adrenalin adventurer and best-selling author. He is the founder and CEO of the FINANCIAL FREEDOM INSTITUTE, Money Masters Global and co-founder of The Intelligence Group of companies. His group of companies have financially educated and life coached over 250,000 individuals globally. He is the real deal, creating millionaire clients across the globe.

As an avid, thrill seeking adventurer, Nik was one of the first explorers to dive down five miles and land on the bow of the Titanic. He has summited the highest mountains in the world and was one of the privileged select explorers in the world to view the curvature of the earth from the edge of space. He is the very first flight-qualified and certified civilian astronaut from Australia and his biggest dream is to walk on the moon.

"I want to be one of the first group settlers to colonise the moon and I am prepared to provide all my wealth to charity and be stripped back to basics. That would be a really unique experience. It's something that I've been waiting for all my life", he told ABC News, and hopes to be a part of the NASA move to colonise the moon by 2018.

However if that doesn't happen, Halik has guaranteed he will make it there one day...

"I've paid an American company to, in the event of my death, my cremated remains will be rocketed to the moon and my ashes will be scattered on the lunar surface, so eventually I will make it to the moon." he says.

He currently resides in Miami, Florida but also in one of his homes in the Greek Islands, Morocco and Australia.

In JULY 2005, he set off on an expedition and thrill seeking adventure which consisted of diving 3 miles deep in the cold water abyss of the North Atlantic Ocean in a 3 manned Russian submersible, to become the first Australian (and Greek) to land on the bow section of the TITANIC and have lunch on it, the first Australian to set foot on the TITANIC since the 1912 sinking of the famous cruise liner in dangerous iceberg plagued waters.

His latest book,The Thrillionaire is orchestrated with stories of adventure interspersed with financial wisdom and personal development - an astonishing personal journey that will touch you deeply. Nik is an extremely gifted writer, painting beautiful pictures in the minds of readers and taking us on his journeys with him. He is an extraordinary individual and his uniqueness comes out at you from every page in this book.

The Thrillionaire® splashes a kaleidoscope of colours onto a life mosaic which will inspire, connect, contribute and stir the soul of every reader with its oasis of enlightenment.
