With roughly 140,000 employees across 66 countries, Boeing airplanes and aerospace products represent one of the most visible and important U.S. exports to the globe.

In 1972, a young entrepreneur named Richard Branson turned his mail order record business into a brick and mortar store, which he named Virgin Records. Today, the company - which is now called Virgin Group - is much more than a record store, comprising more than 40 companies that include airlines, financial services, communications, and even space-travel. And Branson himself has stakes in more than 400 companies ranging from travel, media, healthcare, and finance.

Steve Ballmer Jul 19, 2018

Show notes

Steve Ballmer and Bill Gates have a lot in common. They were both CEOs of Microsoft, they are two of the wealthiest people in the world, and they both dropped out of prestigious universities to work at the computer company founded by Gates and Paul Allen in 1975.

But when Ballmer joined Microsoft in 1980, the company had yet to dominate the personal computer market, eventually creating three billionaires.

Ballmer recently sat down with Carlyle Group co-founder David Rubenstein to discuss his career.
