On a day like today in 1950, was born Richard Branson, an English business magnate and investor. He is best known as the founder of Virgin Group, which nowadays comprises more than 400 companies.
Richard is an entrepreneur and an innate sales man, with a seemingly insatiable appetite for starting new businesses. According to the Forbes 2011 list of billionaires, Branson is the fourth richest British citizen and 254th richest person in the world.
Branson is also well known for his personal adventures. He has a flamboyant character and has taken part in a number of gruelling adventure challenges, such as sailing crossing the Atlantic Ocean in the "Virgin Atlantic Flyer", which was the first and largest hot air balloon to cross the ocean.
During his early years, Branson struggled with dyslexia, had poor academic performance as a student and a hard time with educational institutions. But later on, he discovered his ability to connect with others, what led him to build his successful businesses.
