Never Mind the Bollocks
Methods of Prosperity newsletter no.55, Richard Branson and the Sex Pistols.
Part 55. Sir Richard Branson (continued).
To put Mike’s mind at ease, Richard offered to take him for a drive in his Bentley. They drove past the Queen Elizabeth Hall when Richard slowed down. There were Mike Oldfield posters everywhere. A crowd of people were making their way to the concert. Richard stopped the car. “Do you want to drive?” he asked. He knew Mike loved that car. “Alright,” Mike agreed. Mike drove Richard’s Bentley further. Then Richard asked, “Would you like to have this car as a present?”
“A present?” Mike wondered.
“Yes. I’ll get out here and keep walking. You just keep on driving and the car’s yours.” Richard gave Mike an incentive to perform live.
“Come off it. It was your wedding present.” Mike hesitated.
“All you have to do is then drive it around to the Queen Elizabeth Hall, and go up on stage tonight, and then it’s yours.”

No One Warned Him About Self-Sabotage.
Methods of Prosperity newsletter no.54: Sir Richard Branson (cont.)
TL;DR
Richard Branson dropped out of school at age 16. Back then, the headmaster of his school made a prediction. Either Richard would go to prison or become a millionaire. At age 20, the first part of that prediction came true. Richard Branson’s journey with Virgin Records took a significant turn. British customs arrested him for violating the Customs Excise Act of 1952. Branson chose to avoid further legal trouble. His mother bailed him out with £30,000, using their family home as security. To avoid a criminal record, he negotiated an out-of-court settlement. It amounted to three times Virgin's illegal profit. This incident drove him to focus on making Virgin Records successful. He reinvested earnings from the record shops to open more outlets and repay his debt and family. In 1972, Branson bought and converted a manor house. He turned it into The Manor Studio, making it the ideal recording...

Tax Evasion Isn’t Good Business
Richard Branson Arrested. Methods of Prosperity newsletter no.53
TL;DR
Virgin Mail Order faced a crisis with no way to send records or receive payments. Postal workers were on strike. To avoid running out of money in a week, Richard Branson decided to open a physical record shop. He had no experience in running one. He found a location on Oxford Street in London. The building’s owner sold shoes out of the storefront. The owner agreed to provide the upstairs space for free. The arrangement would attract customers for both businesses. Within days, Virgin’s first record store opened. It drew significant foot traffic and built a loyal customer base. By spring 1971, the shop was £15,000 overdrawn. Branson exploited a tax loophole, allowing him to avoid paying export taxes. His plan was to repay debts from the proceeds. It was a criminal plan. He thought he would get away with it. He didn’t.

Hey everyone, Im a newer writer starting to use @paragraph for occasional pieces to my channel members. Im looking at my dash and my first piece from a while ago says "published" but also "unlisted" where as a piece I did for a different channel doesnt have the unlisted tag. How do I make the unlisted one as listed? or is it not possible now that it is published.
Thanks, I plan on creating more pieces and want to avoid this in the future.

I am having an issue with connecting my wallet to @paragraph
I sign the signature when it pops up, I am signed into my account, then it comes up with this pop up when I click on my wallet address, if I click off the screen to add my warpcast to my profile all my information is missing and the icon on the warpcast is just a spinning.
