Billionaire Gerry Harvey says there was little for him to gain by speaking with Neil Mitchell on Tuesday.

He said opinions had become dangerous.

“It doesn’t matter what you say – you get attacked,” Harvey said on What Makes You Tick.

“Social media is just extraordinarily spiteful, and nasty.

“It’s at such a stage now … why am I doing this interview with you? Have I got an opinion on anything? Probably not, any more. What’s the point? Just shut up.”

Harvey has certainly been a lightning rod for online outrage at times with his opinions in recent years, which has led some activist groups to target his business, customers and advertisers.

He said the “system was silencing” people and their ideas.

“I can get up there and say something … somebody doesn’t like it, I lose all my customers, why would I do that?” Harvey said.

Harvey explained what drove him to his success, as well as the three most important principles he lives by.
