In this episode of the Ways to Wealth Podcast, Charlie is joined by Vinay Deobhakta!

Vinay is a former lawyer turned entrepreneur whose career collapsed after a Law Society complaint saw him struck off the legal roll in 2009. Coming from a prestigious legal family, he practiced law for 20 years before facing bankruptcy and personal ruin.

The conversation explores Vinay’s remarkable journey of resilience, from selling possessions at markets to working in high-end sales of Ferraris and Lamborghinis, and eventually rebuilding through Mackenzie Friend Professionals – a business supporting self-represented litigants in Australia and New Zealand.

Key themes include the principle of “ego edging God out” that contributed to his downfall, his spiritual recovery through Bible study, and the psychology of overcoming depression and financial hardship. Vinay also shares his perspective on AI’s disruption of the legal profession and his transition into mental health advocacy through his podcast A Fighter’s Mind, focused on litigation trauma and resilience.

The episode highlights grit, recovery, and practical strategies for bouncing back stronger after failure.
