Family, friends and legal foes remember John G Russell as a trailblazing moneyman who left a lasting contribution, despite his public persona.
He was the scourge of the taxman, subject of the largest bankruptcy proceeding in New Zealand history.
John George Russell, who ran up a $500 million tax bill during a three-decade war with the IRD, has died. He was 83.
A new worthy goal in life - what a great number to beat!
