Mark Cuban Answers Business Questions From Twitter | Tech Support | WIRED
Mark may be the only billionaire who will actually say “I’m rich. I can do what I want!” Lots of respect for his honesty.
He is just stating a fact
badabing badaboom
And the president. He did what ever he wanted.
In Bernie Sanders’ America, he will be tortured.
Donald Trump said that decades ago.
“Everyone has potential”
Allow me to introduce myself.
I believe in you
It seems that maybe YOU is stupid lmao
Btw that was just a joke on his name, I mean no offense
@Magi Anicaliptin wut..?
@Magi Anicaliptin that response was almost as dumb and irrelevant as your name
"If you have potential, chances are you are working for expert"
He just owned me with this.
🤮

I dont get it
everyone works for someone

"Do you want a Bitcoin?"
Mark: "No I want a banana"
Well it's his loss

@@ladboii2901 you only profit once you sell. And all you "experts" just say hold when it dips. Soon it's gonna crash completely tho and u won't have anything.
This dude is really straight forward with his answer, totally love this kind of answer
@Magi Anicaliptin -Your comment was very difficult to read
@@Zleek Ikr :v
@Magi Anicaliptin - This was even more difficult to read, but don't worry, you'll get it some day :)
Magi Anicaliptin Did you have a stroke?
@Magi Anicaliptin huk'd awn fawnikz. Might want to check that out so you can properly read this sentence.
3:28 “I’d rather have bananas. I can eat bananas”
Mark Cuban,
2019
People still think all the other alt coins with various types of functionality and that are faster than BTC have no value. I don't think he can see beyond BTC because he's super wealthy and probably don't think about cryptos ability to help people in developing countries bank and tranacte for the first time.
Someone do the math, how much bananas do Cuban worth?
I'd rather have brass. If anything happens and money/gold is useless, brass will buy you anything.
Gah but Commodities industry is now heavily corrupt and evil in their end result. But he's right it's about critical value to humans.
@@kazkaz8131 yeah... but can you eat it?
I love the fact that the people working for him are earning a living wage and he makes sure if that. Most business or business owners don’t think like that. This is next level
He's one of a rare breed that still believes you'll get back more than you give your employees if you treat them right. When so many other businesses are taking advantage of employees, and taking advantage of the government, Cuban's proof you can still become a billionaire with honesty and integrity.
Oh business owners know this. They are just hoping for the hidden subsidies and hoping that taxpayers don't understand the economics of them.
"A good business partner is someone who makes me money". Now I can't think of any other answer😂😂
He is so full of himself that it makes me trust him and like his sincerity.
Usually that has the opposite effect..
@@BigDocAnime Nah... what usually has the opposite effect is someone who is full of themselves but creates a distance between you and them, as though they are a god or something. Mark Cuban, as well as other business persons (i.e. Jack Ma), make you feel like, "Yeah... although it would take a lot more, the same rules apply to me as to you, and everything can come falling down for me as well."
And that's why they seem more approachable, which is great if you're gonna be a successful business person.
He's full of himself, but that's because he has so much substance. He's one of the few actually self-made billionaires out there.
@@pawala7 yeah agreed
Cool, then you should love Donald Trump #202
So this is what an actual "very smart, very stable" actual billionaire actual businessman sounds like.
Crazy.
Van Damage dude Trump lost millions in the casino business, how does one even do that
And fyi Cuban’s an independent
@@jaybizzle1995 Yeah he might have lost millions but he is still a billionaire lol
@@biesman5 prove it

“How do I start a business with no money, no knowledge, and no passion?”
Mark: “You don’t”
😂😭 Mark, you are the goat🐐
Gianni Newman lmao
I don't think he said something wrong
There's no point of hiring jerks, doing what you hate especially in the world where almost 95percent+ startups fail
@@AnkitSharma-nf5qm mashallah tbark allah alhamdulillah inshallah better astagfirullah
@@AnkitSharma-nf5qm Nobody said he said anything wrong. Plus it was a stupid question anyway. "How do I start a business without all the things needed to start a business?"
1:50 "I'm rich! I can do whatever I want."
Mark Cuban,
2019
I like that he actually answering the question instead of trolling them.
“Be someone who reduces the stress of the people around you” I wish I knew that before going to interview and failing miserably.
Don’t even get me started on failing interviews. Gosh dang I suck at them so hard
How does knowing that help with interviews?
How would you have answered your interview differently?
Not trying to be patronising. I'm genuinely clueless.
brandon tan A good rule of thumb for showing you reduce stress in the workplace in an interview is by being interactive and positive. Ask the person interviewing you how their day is going, make small talk and make yourself relatable. Employers love employees who can relate to and manage their other employees, it makes their job easier.
@@123Mathzak I see. I'll keep that in mind. Thanks for answering!

Kevin O'Leary would say "no" to the kids and non-profits in a heartbeat.
Canada’s ‘Shark Tank’ is called ‘Dragon’s Den’ and they had kids episodes and for profit charity pitches. Kevin was on that show first and invested in both those types of pitches.
dinobotpwnz Facts!
Can you imagine him telling a kid “you’re dead to me” or “some other company is gonna copy your product and squash you like the cockroach you are” 😂😂😂
@@akiblue Probably because he wants to show Canada that he's nice
jacko89d not at all, he’s Canadian and ran for the Conservative party leadership, everyone knows his arrogance, but I think it’s all a show, business is business, charity is charity.
He would say, "Take it behind the barn and shoot it"
"Food insecurity." First time I heard it like that. I've experienced that throughout my childhood. And even some of my adulthood. I really liked Mark's answer to the living/minimum wage question.
You would think someone as rich as Cuban wouldn't care about people earning minimum wage. But the fact that he supports everyone having a living wage and his reasons for it really resonates with me. Mad respect
@@youngwang97 yep, unfortunately not many billionaires think like that. huge respect to Mark.
@@youngwang97 he maybe be 2.6 % of the net worth of Bezos but morally he seems a 1000x more valueable
@@bloodwargaming3662 You do know that Amazon was one of the first large companies to start paying all their employees at least $15 an hour, right?
@@kevinehrlich6988 At what cost? Peeing in bottles?
Barbara: But your tie's a little low. And for that reason, I'm out.
It's annoying, indeed
Alright, this is what I’m talking about. Billionaires answering questions.
They give us a perspective that we probably wouldn't have thought of.
for reals
This is way more valuable than I expected it to be. He's giving in-depth answers
Yeah! Like "you don't." hahah
I can appreciate what he said about minimum wage. That's a unique outlook for a businessman, honestly. But it's because he's so financially secure he doesn't have to worry about how to scrape by.
I'm sure he did at some point in his life, which is why he has that outlook in the first place. That's the difference between people who never had to suffer through money problems anytime in their lives and those who did. We all hope to come out of it someday, but it's good that when someone does, they don't lose touch with the financially struggling class that they were once a part of
How many businessmen have you talked to?
The potential aftershocks of rent/goods hiking up jumps out as a concern for raising up to $15 an hour
Not sure what his thoughts are on thst
He's been there. Remember the part about living six in a three bedroom apartment?
It’s also not helpful always. Some people have to refuse raises because they’ll be kicked out of programs like free health care etc if they make too much. That means suddenly they’re paying more for things than they used to, and now make less money
I like his reasoning regarding minimum wage. He is a successful capitalist but he also understands what motivates the 99%
exactly. he’s legitimately a self made billionaire and has lived the poor life.
15 a hour isn't enough. You literally can't afford a one bedroom apartment anywhere in the U.S on 15 a hour
@@Ball.Daily11 it depends on which states you lived in. If it's in California, then f no
@Muhidden Y. Misbak no it doesn't depend on the state. Literally you cannot afford a one bedroom apartment nowhere in the U.S on 15 dollars a hour
@@Ball.Daily11I moved out making $12/hour and lived in mckinney Texas (the #2 safest city in the U.S.)

Tai Lopez disliked that.
Who's that?

Mark: “Yeah how about I just buy you?”
@@Toastandbananas130 well it's not his Ferrari, he's leasing it
YO MUMMA Oh I know lol. He leases almost everything
Most of the answers he gives actually hits the nail on the head.
Woah, businessmen make good decisions? Who would’ve thought? ...Oops- I mean eat the rich.
@@doyouknowkeplertwentytwob4032 Child labor is a great decision
@@theonlyalecazam2947 Which company that Cuban is involved with employs child labor?
@@theonlyalecazam2947 you mean like the labor that made the device you wrote this comment on?
This was far more informative than what I anticipated. Never knew who Mark Cuban was before (not american), but I'm impressed. He didn't come with the usual bs of "tips to make you rich" or "habits of successful people", in fact he criticized that stuff and I commend him for that. Great guy!
Have you ever watched Shark Tank show??
Excellent, honest, no-BS, compassionate human being. Rare among the super wealthy.
I’m not Americam but deals with super rich. I must say that most of them are well-mannered, honest, direct, no-BS type of people.
Wow this guy seems smart, he should start a business
Also seems like he'd be great for a tv show
I think you're onto something. Maybe a show where he sits in a big chair next to 3 other people, and entrepreneurs pitch them ideas and ask for money for a percentage of ownership in their company?
🤣🤣
Should probably run some sort of sports franchise too. Maybe something in Texas involving a tall German Goat.
Someone needs to tell him this ASAP!!
This guy would also be a good dad
1:50 "I'm rich! I can do whatever I want."
Mark Cuban,
2019
The way life is supposed to be
All I can think of is Dave Chapelle saying "IM RICH BITACH!"
People can change their minds, crazy
I just noticed mark cuban’s ears and i can’t unnoticed them.
Best advice ever: fire stress creators, give stress eliminators a raise. LOVE IT!
This man makes golddiggers to get a business degree before they even think of approaching him
LOL

LoL
and to speaking wif da sentinz to make da sense
@@LilDrummaDude I had feeled you itd make no senze
It's insane how smart this guy is, the combination of "get on an elevator. PITCH!", and long extensive answers on real causes is really cool
i wanna like your comment but i also dont want to change the number of likes it has
Imagen how much training he has had...and the video cutting also makes it look more perfect badass than it was during recording. But he is both intelligent, smart and wise for sure
I actually don't think he's that smart. A hard worker? No doubt. But some of his advice doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
Henry R if someone who’s really smart gives you advice that you don’t understand, odds are it’s not them who’s not smart
The dude with a Borat profile pic talking about intelligence lmao
At least he’s a billionaire that doesn’t give me the PEDO vibes.

@@cat4331 well elons a billionaire and you're not
flum true, gotta pay my respects
@@flum6881 gee sick burn dude
His quote about people who think they're irreplaceable applied directly to me. I was recently pushed out of my startup leadership team and even though I was definitely wronged and blindsided, I also wasn't quite humble enough. Didn't see it coming.
1:50 “it’s easy I’m rich” I wanna be like that
yo but right after that he said he went 7 years without a vacation!
@@BasementDwellers Well you gotta get rich somehow.
@@CockatooDude ya i agree, im just saying gets rich comes with tradeoffs
@@BasementDwellers 7 years for a lifetime without stress where do i sign in
So real talk, Cuban seems genuine, and I like it.
He’s always been that way
This guy is a complete bullshitter, I had to end 3 mins in
I think that's how he wins people over.
“I’m rich I can do whatever I want” - MC flexing on the other 99%
This is the first time I see mark talk about non-basketball topics, I always admired his willingness to learn about small but important details in basketball, event though he's an owner, not a coach or assistant or whatever. He looks like a smart guy that deserves to be where he is, unlike some other rich people.
Did I just learn to like Mark Cuban?
You didn't before??
No you already liked him before
Hoe could you not like him? He’s one of the few humble billionaires!
he should start a show where he sits down with other entrepreneurs and allows people to pitch their products/business in person.
Not.enough to.go.around That’s brilliant! I cannot believe no one has thought about that yet
Lol
lol, you should pitch it to him
I sense a woosh incoming. Any day now...
They should name it Shark Tank too.
My hero. A successful person who thinks about others. Thank you Mark Cuban for your humour and humanity. We need more like you.
This was actually surprisingly insightful. Great advice!
He's got a yang tweet lol
Mark Cuban, the man who would rather have bananas than gold. But then again, "It's easy, I'm rich!"

Mark Cuban (2019) not a fan of crypto
Mark Cuban (2021) reveals he's a crypto whale
No, in video he mentioned that crypto is only worth what you pay for it.
@@hoanglongchau120 look at the date of the video. This was a while ago
I'm with James. It seems contradictory but really is not. In 2019 he says BTC is worth what people make it worth, he doesn't say he would ever own BTC. He has so much money he diversifies.
If it takes 10million usd to be a crypto whale and there is potential in the crypto market anybody diversifying their assets would buy some. Mark's net worth is over 5.2bn now take that and divide it by 100million, that's 52. So mark has 52 times 100million. Divide that by 10, if a crypto whale is 10million, Mark can be about 520 crypto whales. So the real question you should be asking is why does it supprise you.
To be honest, heard of this guy vaguely, and definitely didn't know what kinda questions he'd take up. But his answer to the crypto bubble one was informative, and deeply satisfying. Just bang on!! Loved it
This video was a lot longer than what I expected and what I usually would sit through for a Q&A style video, but I'm glad I watched all of it. Didn't know Mark Cuban was such a compassionate guy.
This is one of the greatest Q&A ever.
He knows his craft well, the craft of making money.
SO MUCH VALUABLE CONCEPTS HERE! I had to watch it 5 times just to absord all of them. Thanks!
Some people could and did writes books about a lot of the topic questions and they deal in depth. But, because this guy is so brutally honest you don't need to reach a whole book just to understand and know the answers.
This is by far the most valuable Tech Support video WIRED has put out.
I love Mark Cuban! He’s so straight forward and I love how he thinks and how honest he is
I loved this Q&a with mark Cuban. I love your comment about compassion. Thank you
He tells it the way it the way he sees it. Not always right or tactful, but direct and pragmatic.
I love how honest he is “im rich, if i want to go on vacation, i go on my own private plane”
This guy is genius, and he's a genius with the rare ability to communicate his knowledge in a way that's easy to understand. You want to live a better life, I'd start by listening to what he has to say.
This dude is very humble and honest love it
I want to be a stress reducer is potentially a good interview answer. 😆 everybody should take note and use on interviews! We love you Mark!
Love this sort of content (related to business). I could listen to Mark answering Twitter questions all day.
Same here.
Hey Mark, you should totally do more of these q&a sessions. It's amazing.
This was really valuable to me. Thank you, Mark and thank you Wired. Please post more content like this.
Mark: “We don’t know what combination of big or little things will make things better or worse”
China: “hold my bat”
Did Mark Cuban just hint he's thinking about being a presedential candidate?
WeMakeVideosCA I know!!! And still everyone in here is obsessed with his “rich guy” answer...
Yeah, I've seen a few videos where he mentioned wanting to run for presidency
He's talked about it before, whether or not he's serious tbd
He recently said he strongly considered it, but then talked to his kids and they said no.
Not going to happen. All 3 of his kids told him no
Better title: Mark Cuban wears a suit, and he wasn't going to court
Customer service is so important to me. If a store has amazing customer service, I'll definitely come back, and I'll definitely recommend it to other people. It makes me want that business to succeed. Likewise, if the people working at a place are super rude, condescending, or impatient, then I'll never go there again-- even if their products or prices were really great!
"Reduce the stress of the people around you" has been, without having said it in those words, kinda my motto. I read about not thinking you'd know better than the people in charge, not complaining just because you feel entitled, and enjoying seeing other people's lives looking better cause you're there... it's paid off every.single.time. And not necessarily regarding money.
Despite being a billionaire, Mark Cuban is such a down to earth guy!
I feel he's a little aggressive the way he talks but yes he has excellent advice. I agreed upon everything he said. He does seem pretty modest and frank for being a billionaire.
lmao, if he only know whats hes actually attitude is.
He is self made. That’s why
Down to earth?
Said no one ever

The answer for what the looked in a leader was spot on. I worked for a great company but they did not invest the time in my training and I was working on old tools which did not improve my skill set. Eventually I had to quit as I did not see any improvement in my career.
Who didn’t tell him to fix his tie?
It's the only thing I see....
He doesn’t need to impress anyone. He’d rather say “idgaf” and be comfortable lol

He hates suits and ties so I think his intention was to look like he DGAF.
@@particle_wave7614 Probably that was the case lmao I love mark, but its a shame because its a nice tie, would looked great if he fixed it
Mark Cuban is one of the few rich people who really remembers all the facets of being broke
People think Mark Cuban is arrogant person. Not at all, just a Pittsburgh guy who made it and went, “well… FU&@ this is awesome”, and getting money doesn’t change you, it just brings out your inner yinzer
No inner yinzers are just crotchety terrible people, I'd argue that you have to shed the yinzer persona if you wanna make it anywhere outside of pittsburgh
Honestly I can see Mark Cuban running for President in the near future.
He was floating the idea last cycle as well
This is absolutely amazing. Real, genuine business content. Love it!
I remember seeing this video when it released. Two years later it showed up, and I got answer to few of my questions. Thanks Cuban. Always your fan.
sad, youre a fan of a billionare?
Love this interview
So rich that he doesn't care to straighten his tie.
he's well known to hate suits and can't stand why people wear them
I think he mentioned that he wanted to become so rich that he doesn't have to wear a tie/suit. And he became that rich.
Recycled comment.

For this 13 minutes I felt like I'm somebody. Thanks Mark, for increasing my self esteem temporarily.
As a Dem, I'd somersault over party lines if Cuban ran as a republican.
That’s exactly the thought that this video left me with. Sign me the F@ck up.
well not with his views, he won't
I third this notion… but is he even openly republican? Because it seems to me he would probably fit the ideals of a libertarian despite being to intelligent to associate with the people that actually constitute the official libertarian party.
I just searched on google how much people make working for him to see if he was just all talk about the wages and just as an intern they get payed 16-18 dollars an hour and he’s straight forward also he’s great speech person with how he just reads the questions and didn’t take 5 seconds to answer them. I am amazed 😃
You guys need to do more of these, Cuban was very entertaining and knowledgeable, especially when he defended "burger flippers"
Wired : is it me or is the audio a bit weird?
Also Wired : I'm gonna add a loud beat now

Superior video content, superior comment thread. Not just usual old jokes and rambling trolls. Felt good watching this and reading.

Mark Cuban as always giving wonderful advice.
Watching this some two years later after everything that has just happened and continues to happen (i.e. pandemic) hits different. No one and i mean no one can predict anything.
Holy crap. Listen to this whole thing. It is informative to say the least.
- Do all you can to be great at your job. But you have to be honest with yourself.
- Be someone who reduces the stress of the people around you.
- Be honest with yourself about whether you're a stress creator or stress reducer.
