Bio
Dr. Hannes Dreyer is a world leader in Wealth Creation. As a speaker and author on the subject, he is at the forefront of the personal and professional development industry. His knowledge and experience is a culmination of 26 years of research and study into finance, economics, psychology and philosophy.
Born in Pretoria, South Africa, he started his first business at the age of ten. He began his professional career as a financial planner. It was the realization that more than 95% of the population would not be financially secure at retirement age that was a major turning point for him. He set out to find out why conventional investments and investment advice simply do not work. In the process, he discovered and developed the true secrets, strategies and formulae for wealth creation, the ones that have genuine potential to set people free. He decided to dedicate his life to helping ordinary people learn and apply these strategies, which are based on Universal Principles and Laws. In this way, it is possible - and even easy - to build wealth in all seven areas of life, with the emphasis on creating, preserving and enjoying financial wealth.
Dr Dreyer’s Formula for Riches(R) is integral to his approach and can be applied in every area of life. It has been used by him and many of his students over the past 25 years as a fail-safe approach to building wealth, fulfillment, happy relationships, greater security, increased peace of mind, bountiful leisure time, and much more. His passion is to share the Formula for Riches(R) with more than 10 000 000 people through speeches, seminars, workshops and writings.
Since he began this quest four years ago, he has reached more than 374,000 people with his teachings on Wealth Creation.
His approach also includes property investments, a much-misunderstood wealth creation tool that, correctly used, has incredible potential for financial freedom. To help people understand and apply the correct reasoning and make the right choices, he developed the Property Pro Investment Software Program and DVD course. With these tools, he shows people how they can combine property and the Formula for Riches™ with spectacular and fail-safe investment results. For instance ...the topic of Dr. Dreyer’s Masters degree dissertation was “Residential Property As an Investment Instrument”. To prove his system, he bought 48 properties in 94 days without using a cent of his own capital.
This portfolio was cash flow positive from the first day.
Witnessing the effect the Formula for Riches(R) has had on people from differing countries, genders and educational levels inspired him to complete his PhD (Commonwealth Open University) on “Applying The Formula For Wealth Creation To Develop Entrepreneurs And Investors” He took on a personal challenge to use the Formula for Riches(R) to liberate people from pervasive myths like “you must have money to make money”; “you must make use of financial institutions, because you can’t do it on your own”; and “you have to be lucky, well-connected, well-educated, or exceptionally talented to become wealthy”. To disprove these damaging myths, Dr Dreyer took less than 12 cents and turned it into an investment of over $1,400.000.00 in less than two and a half years. The process is documented for his students on www.hannesdreyer.co.za.
Realizing that the biggest financial mistake most people make is to fall into the debt trap, Dr Dreyer decided to help people get free with his Debt Eradication System™. This system was developed more than 20 years ago, has proved invaluable in all phases of the economic cycle, and today is needed more than ever. His mission is to share this system with people from all over the world, to reduce financial stress and to help set people free.

Dr Dreyer is married to Tanja, and they have two daughters. He loves reading, studying, teaching and writing; as well as travel and flying his turbine helicopter. He is also a fire-walking instructor.
