For local on-the-spot fintech entrepreneur turned magnate, Johnny (39, Betoota Grove) the idea of getting away to Europe during the Australian winter months is something that he knows will upset a lot of his clients.

That’s because his start up offers 24-hour email responses with a 45 minute response time after midnight.

But, like many other deep-Gen-Y corporate-creatives, Johnny knows he’s gotta make the most of the freedom that comes with being young and single.

“I’ve got a few mates who’ve married up, and they can’t do the quick two weeks in Europe anymore” he tells our reporters.

“So, I figure, if not now, then when?”

For Johnny, work takes up a lot of his time, and with his intern currently completing an online course on Xero – his company’s extremely fraudulent tax return should be lodged by about this time on Friday. At which point he plans to be boarding a Scoot airline to Singapore, before another one takes him to a random airport just 15 kilometres outside of Bolgna.

“Haha. I’ve tried to tell as many clients as I can. Just so they don’t get pissed off if they see my Insta stories” says Johnny.

“Most of them are probably doing the same thing. Haha. But yeah, don’t want any of them sending emails through to me for the next few weeks because they’ll be going straight to the keeper”

However, for his colleagues and the freelancers he’s yet to pay for website work and creative designs, Johnny has decided to break the news of his much needed getaway through a brief out-of-office reply.

“Just so they know that Bryce or Jacqui will be filling in for me over the next few weeks. Don’t want any projects put on ice just because i’m sipping Aperol and eating pasta from the old book”

“Haha”

“Tuscany is so lit this time of the year. Have you seen that Aziz Ansari show on Netflix. Couldn’t be more accurate”
