Question Jimmy operated his own shoe design and manufacturing business from a warehouse in the CBD. Jimmy purchased the warehouse on 1 July 2017 for $1.5 million, it had been constructed in 2009 and the cost associated with construction was $500,000. He also offered weekend classes in shoe design to up and coming designers. Students signed up for a 20-week course which was paid in advance.
