This could've happened to any one of us. It's the story of a company called Storm Financial, and how hundreds of ordinary mum and dad investors were left stranded in the midst of the global financial crash. All they wanted was a nest egg for their future, and what they got was heartache. They lost their savings, their homes, the lot. But it's also the story of the banks and loans that raise serious questions indeed, the kind that caused this whole global mess in the first place.

For over forty years, 60 Minutes have been telling Australians the world’s greatest stories. Tales that changed history, our nation and our lives. Reporters Liz Hayes, Tom Steinfort, Tara Brown, Nick McKenzie and Amelia Adams look past the headlines because there is always a bigger picture. Sundays are for 60 Minutes.
