You may find that your faith is misplaced Starry, apart from his original Virgin businesses, he hasn't enjoyed huge success. His rail operation is no more efficient than most of the others, he failed in his attemt to run the lottery (a great shame I feel), his round the world ballooning came to nought and I don't believe that his finance business is overly successful.
He may of course be putting something together for the pay TV franchise, I hope he has more success, he seems to be gaining a reputation as the White Knight who rides to the rescue on everything, but wins nothing.
