Former Carlton president Luke Sayers is selling a luxurious Melbourne bachelor pad he bought months before a dick pic scandal overturned his life.
Sayers has had a high-flying corporate career crowned with eight years as chief executive of consultancy firm PwC before running his own investment firm Sayers Group.
This has since been rebranded as Tenet Advisory, and he has stepped down from a role as executive chairman.
