Sir Alan unloads Amstrad

SIR Alan Sugar today agreed to sell his Amstrad business in a
£125million deal with broadcaster BSkyB.

What does he own that gives him a personal wealth of GBP800 million?

A warehouse full of unsold car radio arials. I find it amazing that
anyone would want to strive so hard to work for his company. If you're
going to work for anyone work for Richard Branson. Fair play to him,
but Sugar missed the boat in so many areas. While Branson has had much
more vision and creativity in business. Which is probably why he's
worth 3bn(?).

The old bearded one is not as wealthy as he seems, Private Eye has detailed
several times where his companies have been saved by Brando himself paying
the bills in cash....
