????Position: Founder and Chairman, Virgin Group

????Unusual Start: Hit record producer

????Branson started a magazine when he was only 16, but really set off his career as an entrepreneur at 22 when he opened a recording studio and brought in singer Mike Oldfield. The result was a single called "Tubular Bells," which stayed on the U.K. charts for close to five years. "On the back of that, we built a record company, and one thing led to another," he told BusinessInsider.
