Kevin Rudd – Noosa, Australia

When tennis player Pat Rafter sold his Noosa home, he probably didn’t expect ex-Prime Minister Kevin Rudd to live in it. The ex-ministers wife, Theresa Rein, revealed this information to the public after purchasing the home for $17 million.

Rudd and his wife decided to purchase the mansion to return their investments to Australia. Rein said that when her husband was in office, they invested abroad to avoid conflicts of interest. The couple returned these investments to their country when the politician’s term ended, including their investments in tech start-ups and residential development. This is giving back to the community, indeed!
