Culture is very important to the Mavs.... It isn't about who talks the most or the loudest. It is about the demeanor and attitude he brings.

I look at my annual budgets for everything and anything, and I look to see where I can save the most money on those items. Saving 30% to 50% buying in bulk - replenishable items from toothpaste to soup, or whatever I use a lot of - is the best guaranteed return on investment you can get anywhere.

Ideas are easy. I've never met a single person who didn't think they had a world class idea. The hard part is making it a business.

I create offbeat advice; I don't follow it. I rarely take third-party advice on my investments.

Everyone is passionate about something. Usually more than one thing. We are born with it.

Always look for the fool in the deal. If you don't find one, it's you.

Sales is the most important aspect of a company, which in turn is about how well you treat your customer and stay ahead of your customer's requirements.
