Excerpt: Peter Clarence Foster (born 26 September 1962) is an Australian who has been convicted and jailed on three continents for offences involving weight loss products and property transactions. He was also in the headlines following his involvement in helping Cherie Blair, wife of British prime minister Tony Blair, buy properties in Bristol. Foster sold his memoirs to a British publisher for $1.2 million. In 2009, he announced he was planning to make a motion picture out of his career provided his publishers release him from their agreement. Foster began marketing and selling products at an early age. Nicknamed 'Kid Tycoon', the 'Milkshake Tycoon' and 'The boy with the Midas Touch', Foster was already promoting themed nights at a Gold Coast discothèque two years before he was legally allowed in the club, and became a boxing promoter at 17. When he was aged 20 he was fined by a court in Australia for attempting to make a fraudulent insurance claim when a boxing match that he was promoting fell through. The following year he was declared bankrupt in Australia after trying to market a product aimed at people who wanted to quit smoking. In 1983, Foster became a television producer and filmed a documentary with Muhammad Ali while living with Ali at his home near Wilshire Boulevard. Ali's third wife, model Veronica Ali, introduced him to Bai Lin, a Chinese diet tea. Foster obtained the rights for Bai Lin Tea for Australia where it was major success; however he was investigated by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC). Despite not being charged with an offence, the product came under intense media scrutiny due to the claim that the product could result in weight loss. Foster expanded to South Africa, England and throughout Europe where he reportedly made over $30 million in the mid 1980s selling the tea, primarily in the United Kingdom. In marketing the tea, Foster employed prominent people such as model Samantha Fox (whom he was dating), jockey Lester Piggo 28 pp. Englisch, Books<
