Richard Branson - Founder of Virgin Companies, a lesson in Entrepeneurship

I was researching the peer to peer lending industry, and happened on Virgin Money US, and I was reminded of my fascination with Richard Branson , who's supposedly A.D.D. I am A.D.D. myself, and I love stories of successful a.d.d. marketers.

His newest idea, launched with Sergey Brin and Larry Page on April 1st (is this an April Fools joke?) is a partnership between Virgin Galactic and Google, appropriately called Virgle; which is a project to populate Mars with Humans.

You can submit your questionnairre answers + youtube videos at Google's Virgle page.
