5/18/2026, 4:39:39 AM

The Slap Incident at Wealth Mentor Ltd

A video released by former contractor Savannah Carter shows Kyron Gosse, chief executive of Wealth Mentor Ltd, stepping into frame and striking her across the face with an open palm. Carter, seated in a swiveling office chair, reacts with shock and says, “You fucking slapped me.” Gosse replies, “I own the footage,” and later repeats, “Stop trying to be perfect. Come here.” The incident, recorded on 12 November 2024, was posted by Carter two days ago to coincide with New Zealand’s Pink Shirt Day anti-bullying campaign.

Background & Context

Kyron Gosse markets himself as a “futurist, entrepreneur, investor and adventurer.” His company, Wealth Mentor Limited, offers education on property investing and claims to help “regular people” achieve financial freedom. Gosse’s public profile includes a 2023 controversy where he was listed among an all-male speaker lineup at a Property Investors Summit, drawing criticism for gender imbalance.

Key Figures & Groups

  • Kyron Gosse – Founder and CEO of Wealth Mentor Ltd; self-described futurist.
  • Savannah Carter – Joined Wealth Mentor in 2023 as a student, later became service-delivery lead and purchased a 10 % equity stake, which she still holds.
  • Wealth Mentor Ltd – New Zealand-based wealth-coaching firm focused on property investment education.

Timeline of Events

  • 2023 – Carter begins as a student in the Wealth Mentor community, later becomes service-delivery lead.
  • Early 2024 – Carter acquires a 10 % share in the company.
  • 12 Nov 2024 – Video captures Gosse slapping Carter.
  • Two days ago – Carter posts the video on Pink Shirt Day, adds a caption about the deteriorating relationship.
  • Same day – Gosse emails Carter at 3:21 pm demanding the return of company property and at 3:23 pm issuing a cease-and-desist threat, warning of legal action if the footage is not deleted.
  • Feb 2024 – Carter resigns from Wealth Mentor.

Data & Statistics

  • Carter retains a 10 % equity stake in Wealth Mentor Ltd despite the dispute.

Why It Matters

The episode raises concerns about workplace abuse, power dynamics in mentorship-based business models, and the credibility of a firm that markets financial empowerment while allegedly tolerating harassment. Potential legal exposure could affect investors and participants in Wealth Mentor’s programs.

Official Statements & Responses

  • Kyron Gosse – In two emails, he demanded the “return of company property” and issued a cease-and-desist order, threatening legal action if the video is not permanently deleted. His public website continues to promote a vision of “zero-cost living” through exponential technologies, without addressing the incident.
  • Wealth Mentor Ltd – No formal comment has been released regarding the allegations or the video.

Criticism & Opposition

Carter asserts she does not believe Gosse intended physical harm, stating, “He didn’t do these things out of anger. But that does not make it okay.” She also recounts additional verbal and emotional assaults, including an episode where Gosse spat a wad of saliva at her through a straw. The earlier all-male speaker lineup controversy adds to the perception of gender-related insensitivity within the organization.

Conflicting Reports & Gaps

  • Gosse has not publicly denied the slap or offered an apology; his only response consists of legal-threatening emails.
  • No independent verification of the incident beyond the posted video exists, and Wealth Mentor Ltd has not issued a corporate response, leaving a factual gap about internal investigations.
