Who Am I?
Born in Surrey, England in the 1950's, I left school at the age of 16 and suffered dyslexia, resulting in poor academic performance whilst at school. My entrepreneurial spirit however never floundered.
Despite having 2 failed ventures at age 15; growing Christmas trees and raising budgerigars, my first business success was a magazine titled "Student";.
I went on to start a record mail order business in 1969 that sold records for much cheaper prices that most retailers. The huge success of this venture led to me opening my first store in Oxford St, London. Not long after this I started my own record label.
In 1971 I was arrested for selling export stock, but settled out of court.
I have been married twice, with my current marriage still going strong since 1989 and producing 2 children.
I own a 74ha island in the British Virgin Islands and am world renown for being a risqué business person. My early businesses led to a string of many other businesses which I now operate under one major brand.
I am considered one of the world's most influential people. |
