She Can't Do Math And He's The Bad Guy – Billionaire Mark Cuban Ranks All The Sharks On Shark Tank

Mark Cuban, the billionaire entrepreneur and longtime investor on Shark Tank, has always been a fan favorite. Known for his outspoken personality and sharp business acumen, Cuban recently shared his thoughts on his fellow Sharks, saying, “All of them have their own thing,” and spilled some tea on what it's really like working with them.

When asked how he'd rank the Sharks during an appearance on Theo Von's Podcast, Cuban jokingly said, "You put me in the bad spot! They're all tied for last." But he didn't hold back when breaking down each Shark's unique personality and approach.

The Sharks, According to Cuban

• Barbara Corcoran: Cuban called her his favorite, praising her ability to read people. "She'll just say to somebody, ‘You're lying' or ‘You're dishonest,' and she'll be right," he said. However, Cuban added with a laugh, "She can't do math. Like, I'll have to tell her what eight times eight is."
• Kevin O'Leary: Known as the show's "bad guy," Kevin embraces his villainous persona. Cuban didn't elaborate much, simply saying, "Kevin's Kevin."
• Robert Herjavec: Cuban described Robert as being into "pets and kids and stuff like that," highlighting his softer side.
• Lori Greiner: As the "queen" of consumer products, Lori is a natural for retail-focused businesses.
• Daymond John: Dubbed the "people's Shark," Daymond focuses on helping smaller businesses grow.

As for himself, Cuban admitted he's mostly there to have fun and occasionally stir things up among the group – “I just f*** with all of them!”

The Price of Wealth and Fame

Cuban also opened up about the lesser-known downsides of being a billionaire. One major issue? Lawsuits. "People sue you. You're the deep pockets," Cuban explained. "I've been sued five times and four of them were just people trying to get money." As someone with "deep pockets," Cuban said he's often targeted unfairly.

His family is also impacted by his public persona. The particular difficulties faced by Cuban’s children include increased scrutiny. If they mess up, “it's on the front page of the paper because you're my kid," he said. Cuban shared how one of his sons recently asked for a "normal" moment, saying, "When you're there, everything changes." While heartbreaking, Cuban said he understands.

Shark Tank Profits and Purpose

Despite investing nearly $20 million in startups on Shark Tank, Cuban admitted he hasn't turned a profit. Speaking on the Full Send Podcast in 2022, he said, "Oh no, I've gotten beat." His biggest flop? Breathometer, a smartphone Breathalyzer that earned backing from all five Sharks. While it had potential, poor management and an FTC settlement over faulty readings ultimately tanked the company.

Trending: Warren Buffett once said, "If you don't find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die." These high-yield real estate notes that pay 7.5% – 9% make earning passive income easier than ever.

Still, as he reflected on his time on the show, Cuban highlighted Dude Wipes as one of his favorite investments. The personal hygiene brand has grown into a $100 million business, which he said is "killing it." On the flip side, Cuban regrets not investing in Spikeball, a backyard sports game that became wildly popular. "Every time I see it, it just reminds me I missed out," he admitted.

But for Cuban, Shark Tank is about more than money. "It teaches kids about the power of entrepreneurship," he said. He's proud that the show inspires people to chase the American dream and take risks.

Shark No More

After 14 seasons, Cuban stepped away to spend more time with his family, especially his teenage kids. "I've missed [time with them] for so long. Now they're teenagers, I just don't want to miss any more of that time," he told Good Morning America.
