    Dear Sir Branson I come from jungle Borneo but have my dream. You are an inspiration. I read your books, watch your movies…. You make many people dare to dream . I am thankful you are an example for the world. Wish more humans are like you.

    2:58 - Richard Branson : "Surely, in my lifetime, I should be able to go to space...", he was right all along. Congrats Richard! Virgin Galactic will play an important role in the future of space exploration.

    You are a breath of fresh air! It's inspiring to see how you have
    opened up this private island to bring people together to learn and collaborate. It's wonderful how you have welcomed those who appeared to have everything but who needed time and a place to regain their peace. This I believe all of us can do with whatever we have been blessed with..

    Necker Island is the 'holiday' I donated to charity. Having won ( a winning auction bid at Virgin Unite function in Brisbane) a week at Necker I turned it around and donated the week back to Virgin Unite for further fund raising. My week of missed pleasure is, I trust, buying a lifetime of opportunities for others through Richards good works at Virgin Unite.
    What is impressive Richard is you opening your home, your island, so that others may benefit in ways that your 'guests' could not even imagine. You are are truly a 5 star host with CSR credentials.
    Cheers,
    David

    Although the land on the island is entirely privately owned, under British Virgin Islands law, all beaches up to the high-water mark are Crown land, and are open to the public. In practice, the security personnel who accompany guests to Necker Island are known for making it difficult for ordinary members of the public to enjoy the beaches, particularly when high-profile guests are in residence. See ya soon, Richie !!!

      You think so? I highly doubt it considering he's currently worth in excess of 4 BILLION USD in 2019 according to Forbes, and is one of the most famous and influential men on the planet. A real WINNER in every sense of the word.
      But of course on the other hand, an ignorant, jealous LOSER troll like yourself won't ever have to worry about ' going down ' because guess what? You're ALREADY THERE!
