Real Life Austrians

Does anyone know if any Austrian individuals in business, ie investment banking, private equity, etc…? Or perhaps a company that bases its principles on libertarian and Austrian principles (though in this world, it may be challenging).

Also, I heard of a company that paid its employees in real gold? Anyone recall the name of that company?

Are you thinking about the Kahre case, last year?

Peter Schiff, of EuroPac, comes to mind. Peter Drucker is also somewhat Austrian.

John Allison, the CEO of BB&T Bank seems to have an objectivist/libertarian philosophy. The ‘values’ of the bank are also very objectivist and pro-free market. Allison’s interview on EconTalk is well worth a listen.
