Richard Branson?

So, we're studying entrepreneurship, and this strikes me as quite the story.

Richie Brans went to a weightlifting competition and saw our man Tumi. Tumi won the competition and talked to Richie afterward, who found out that Tumi was from Alexandra (see my other post). Richie decided to pass along a set of weights so Tumi could actually prep for competitions. Tumi lives in Alex, though, so he doesn't have a lot of space. Instead of hogging the goodies, he's decided to start a gym called Ikasi Gym, in Alex, where he sponsors & trains local weightlifters. It's 100 rand to join and 70/month thereafter. That's like $10.

All thanks to Richard Branson. What a guy!
