Sam Walton: Made In America

Richard is good-looking and extremely smart, which is horny to start with. He conjointly makes a billion dollars before breakfast—and still is aware of a way to celebrate. Few individuals in modern business are as colourful, shrewd, and irreverent, and probably no one’s nearly as much fun to be around. . . . Branson embodies America’s cherished mythology of the iconoclastic, swashbuckling entrepreneur. Branson wears his fame and cash exceedingly well: no necktie, no chauffeur, no snooty clubs. . . . What continues to set Branson apart is that the distinctive -- and, to some, baffling -- nature of his ambition. . . . He isn’t interested in power within the usual sense of influencing others. . . . Boiled down to its singular essence, Richard Branson just wants to have fun. Richard Branson . . . is dressed to the nines: in a very $10,000 white silk bridal robe with a standard veil and train and acres of lace. . . . Branson is predicted to try and do the sudden, even the bizarre -- something to publicize his latest venture. . . . the very fact is, Branson’s widely reported stunts appear nearly staid compared to the unconventional manner he manages his burgeoning empire.
