Richard Branson answers your questions - part 1

This is a video answering questions from his blog.I came across a video on his blog and saw that he had the book "Business Stripped Bare: Adventures of a Global Entrepreneur" out, so I decided to pick it up.

I just starting reading it, but I do know a little about him, his success and struggles with building Virgin. I also had the pleasure and honor of meeting him in Seattle twice, while at a CEO summit sponsored by Bill Gates and Microsoft.

While I was just the hired entertainment, I had the fortune of being "stuck" aboard the luxury boat to play piano on the ride to Gates' lakefront mansion and I chatted for a few minutes with Branson. He's got to be the nicest and most down to earth billionaire I've ever met! (Okay, I've not met many, but Sir Richard was genuinely nice to talk with and was humbly easy to access.)

I look forward to finishing this book in the coming weeks, as part of my read-a-book-per-week goal in 2009.

I write about my booklist and about my goal that I've set for 2009 and that's to read one book per week in 2009.

I've already read "In Search of Bill Clinton: A Psychological Biography" and am working on several others right now, which can be seen in my Amazon Book List on my LinkedIn Profile. Click on my LinkedIn profile to check it out!
