Mark Cuban, the billionaire businessman and owner of the Dallas Mavericks basketball team, has announced that the upcoming 16th season of the hit show Shark Tank will be his last. Cuban shared this news on the podcast “All the Smoke” and expressed his gratitude for being a part of the show for 15 years.
Cuban first appeared on Shark Tank during its second season as a guest investor and quickly became one of the main “sharks” in the third season. He has enjoyed his time on the show, believing that it sends a powerful message about the American dream.
“I love it because it sends the message that the American dream is alive and well. We’ve trained multiple generations of entrepreneurs that if someone can come from anywhere and showcase their business on Shark Tank and get a deal, it can inspire generations of kids,” Cuban said.
Having invested in numerous companies over the years, Cuban looks for ideas that make him say, “Damn, why didn’t I think of that?” Some of his notable investments include Cup Board Pro, Pick-up Pools, and Nuts ‘N More.
While ABC has yet to confirm Cuban’s departure, his announcement has left Shark Tank fans with mixed emotions. Cuban’s charismatic presence and valuable insights will surely be missed by viewers and aspiring entrepreneurs alike.
