Hey Steve, I love your office! Could you show me around?

Sure! What would you like to see?

I guess the pictures. Cool, let's do that.

Well, let's see. Starting from Piers to switch with Ronald Reagan. This is when I was about, I don't know, 26 or 27 years old. It's in the White House.

And now it's actually a picture inside the Oval Office. This is where Tony Robbins, great guy, good friend of mine. Sure, everybody knows who Tony Robbins is. That doesn't really need an explanation.

Same here, Richard Branson, icon in the private equity and real entrepreneur. There's another picture down here with Ronald Reagan inside the Oval Office when I was doing a charity event for Children's Hospital in Washington DC. I was about 28 or 29 years old and got invited into the White House.

Here, this is my delivery of a Boeing, which was a completely brand new airplane with a complete shell. It had no interior, right? That's what an airplane looks like when it's delivered new.

This is a certificate of naturalization when I became a UK Citizen. And here, I got a list of all kinds of books that I really like, mostly around entrepreneurship, about management, about motivation, about real people who run a lot of successful businesses.
