Mark Cuban is an entrepreneur, professional sports team owner (Dallas Mavericks), father, husband and one of the most voracious sharks on ABC’s ‘Shark Tank’.
He’s also a self-made billionaire.
When it comes to investment advice, Cuban will serve it to those who ask him in a matter-of-fact manner without sugarcoating the truth or his honest opinion. And though this tough love style doesn’t work for everyone, it’s undeniable that it makes Cuban’s advice and opinions highly regarded.
One of the best things about Cuban is his ability to speak on behalf of personal experiences, both failures and successes, and capitalize on the fact that he was a person who worked as hard as he possibly could and didn’t stop until he got to where he wanted to be.
Reddit ran an AMA with Mark Cuban, which revealed pieces of his most valuable pieces of business wisdom and experiences.
Here were the top takeaways:
Another Redditor asked what the most ridiculous thing that was pitched to Shark Tank.
While another asked how someone gets their idea off the ground.
And last but not least — while not exactly piece of business advice — someone did ask about the bizarre product placement and Cuban had a sense of humor about it.
