Send us your questions for Richard Branson!
Branson, who started his first business venture at age 16, is a self-made billionaire who has become one of the most well-recognized CEOs in the world due in part to his larger-than-life personality, as well as his aggressive professional pursuits. He was listed as the 4th richest citizen of the United Kingdom by Forbes Magazine in 2011, and has a current net worth of 4.2 billion as of March 2012. And all this, shockingly enough, while being a highschool dropout!
