Hard Cash was founded by Arthur Demond, who arrived in Sydney from New Zealand in 1892. Desmond often published under the name Ragnar Redbeard. He founded Hard Cash prior to the bank collapse of 1893, which he predicted. The magazine attacked banks and financiers in both verse and prose. It later became the newspaper of the Active Service Brigade.
