- Business Insider took a look at a typical day for Branson, which involves lots of tea and plenty of time spent with family and friends.
After founding Virgin Records in 1972, the mogul went on to establish the Virgin Group conglomerate, get knighted by the Queen of England, and accrue a personal fortune of about $5 billion, according to Forbes.
The business magnate is now famous for his globe-trotting adventures and his casual, mischievous attitude. This is the man who once took a hilarious photo with a Virgin employee he caught napping on the job, after all.
According to Virgin's website, Branson doesn't intend to retire and "spends most of his time working on not-for-profit initiatives."
So what does his daily routine look like?
Branson himself broke his daily schedule down in a blog post in April. Every day is different for the jet-setting billionaire, but here are some highlights from his usual schedule:
Branson wakes up at 5 a.m. every day. "Getting up and at it early gives me time to get on top of things, and chart my day effectively," he wrote in a 2014 blog post.
