Richard Branson
When he’s not starting up a business or chasing new adventures, 
Richard Branson can be found tackling problems like global warming
poverty, and access to education. He has donated millions of dollars 
of his own money and helped raise many millions more for charities.
*
Few people in the world have as much fun and adventure as Richard Branson. He has set 
world records for hot air balloon trips over the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans as well as for 
crossing the English Channel in an amphibious car. Branson has ridden motorcycles 
across deserts, sailed through monster storms, paraglided off mountains, and bungee-
jumped over waterfalls.
He counts people like legendary South African leader Nelson Mandela and musician 
Peter Gabriel among his many famous friends.
Wherever he goes on his world travels, Branson seeks out new experiences, interesting 
people, and fresh challenges. He also finds new business opportunities - at last count, 
Richard Branson had more than 400 companies in every field from music and 
entertainment to airlines, mobile phone providers, green fuels, and a space travel agency!
Not every one of his business ventures has worked out, but enough have succeeded to 
make Richard a multi-billionaire and one of the richest people in the world.
It’s an impressive success story for a man who started off as a failure in school. Suffering 
from dyslexia (a learning disability in which the brain mixes up the order of letters and 
numbers), Richard Branson was a terrible student and dropped out of school at age 


sixteen.
However, he was fearless, open-minded, and knew how to get along with just about 
anyone. So Branson played to his strengths, and began looking for ways to make money 
that involved his love of travel and music. He found his first opportunity buying left-over 
albums from music companies in Europe and selling them in his native England for a 
profit.
That led to his first music store, a mail-order business, and a music-production company 
that signed up bands the mainstream labels were afraid to touch. Since then, Richard 
Branson has never stopped pursuing new ideas, testing the limits, and sometimes 
breaking the rules.
Now sixty years old, Branson is still taking life as one big adventure. In his words, “You 
don’t learn to walk by following rules. You learn by doing, and by falling over, then 
getting up to try again.”
