Story
Meet a genuine American folk hero cut from the homespun cloth of America's heartland: Sam Walton, who parlayed a single dime store in a hardscrabble cotton town into Wal-Mart, the largest retailer in the world. The undisputed merchant king of the late 20th century, Sam never lost the common touch. Here, finally, inimitable words. Genuinely modest, but always sure of his ambitions and achievements. Sam shares his thinking in a candid, straight-from-the-shoulder style. In a story rich with anecdotes and the "rules of the road" of both Main Street and Wall Street, Sam Walton chronicles the inspiration, heart, and optimism that propelled him to lasso the American Dream.

Publisher's Summary
Twenty years after his iconic memoir Losing My Virginity, the world’s ultimate entrepreneur is back with the rest of the story.
Richard Branson’s Losing My Virginity shared the outrageous tale of how he built Virgin from a student magazine into one of the greatest brands in history. No challenge was too daunting, no opportunity too outlandish to pursue. And each new adventure started with five simple words: “Screw it, let’s do it.”
Now, 50 years after starting his first business, Branson shares the candid details of a lifetime of triumphs and failures and what he really thinks about his unique life and career. Finding My Virginity is an intimate look at his never-ending quest to push boundaries, break rules, and seek new frontiers - even after launching a dozen billion-dollar businesses and hundreds of other companies.
As he led Virgin into the new millennium, Branson fearlessly expanded the brand into new categories such as mobile, media, fitness, and banking and into every corner of the globe - all while preserving its iconoclastic, scrappy spirit. He even brought Virgin into space with Virgin Galactic, the world’s first commercial spaceline. Finding My Virginity takes us behind the scenes of the incredible brains, heart, and sacrifices that have gone into making private spaceflight an imminent reality - even after the biggest crisis Branson has ever faced.
But this book is much more than a series of business adventures. It’s also the story of Branson’s evolution from hotshot entrepreneur to passionate philanthropist and public servant, via Virgin Unite’s environmental and health initiatives and through the Elders, a council of influential global leaders. And it’s the story of his personal quest to become a better son, husband, father, and “grand-dude” to his four grandchildren.
Featuring a supporting cast that includes everyone from Bill Gates to Kate Moss, Nelson Mandela to Barack Obama, this is the gripping account of a man who will never stop reaching for the stars, in more ways than one. Find out how Branson did it for the first time - all over again.

Boring book
A terribly boring story about him and there is no business insights. All about how gentleman or wild stuntman he was. Not inspiring.

Not good for entrepreneurial tips or business insight
Very little business insights in this book. Most autobiographies from successful entrepreneurs provide good insight into unique business strategies. This book is more focused on his personal life and family.
If you are hoping to learn something new I wouldn't recommend.

EXCELLENT - A Must Listen!!
This is an excellent publication, and the audiobook was such a breeze to listen to - from the storyline to the narration by Steve West (who actually does such a great job you'd think it was Sir Richard Branson reading this himself). There's a lot to learn about living a great life and achieving great success (a lot of facts to list, so please grab a copy and listen).
I am now ready to go out into the world and live a more fulfilling life!

Great motivation and drive!
This listen is for the driven and motivated full of exciting tails and near death misses. One of mankind's true elders is Sir Richard Brandon !!
The only downside would be that it seemed to Trail off in the last few chapters sounding more like a letter to his family than a how to become successful and find your own mark in the world.
All in all a good listen!

Amazing Book!
Great book! I assumed it would be a business book but was mistaken. It was a book on life and how to live it, mixed with how he has been so successful in business.

Smack average
Found the book to be rather dry and mostly just Branson bragging on what he has achieved and the adventures he's had as an billionaire. Great life to have lived but really all I can make from the book is he got lucky taking all the risks he took and mad a bucket load of money because he was first to a lot of tasks and in many ways ended up being a great marketer more than anything else. Did not learn much from Branson's life. #Audible1
