Richard Branson's Early Business Philosophy
There's an alternate reality where he had different parents and he's not the Richard Branson who he is today without the support and encouragement that he got clearly at a very young age. So like many of the people we cover on the podcast is he's a really crappy student. He did not like structured learning. And so this is another example to understand the entrepreneur study the juvenile delinquent. When I left in 1967, aged almost 17, my headmaster's parting words to me were congratulations, congratulations Branson. I predict that you will either go to prison or become a millionaire. They wind up not being mutually exclusive.
