    Entry 7: Closing Account - The Dividends of Culture Club

    In this final Entry, David Simmons reflects on his career and journey through Creative Accounting. Including the recurring value of his innate ability to act and capitalise on his proximity to the currency of chaos, chance and opportunity. How once let into this artistic and financial conversation, he may have also pioneered certain templates and instruments that helped better merge and blend the creative alchemy between music + business. Finally, he recounts how when he became the accountant for Culture Club as they went on to become the biggest band in the world, his daughter’s childhood drawing of Boy George ended up on their album cover. Additionally, how their global success and the doors it opened up everywhere, led him to blur the line that he had consistently managed to maintain between the chaos of work and the stability of home, by finally bringing his wife on the road with him for the first time!
