I think political people are afraid of me.

I'm a big believer that you always reiterate, you always learn, you always realize your business is evolving.

Those back-to-back experiences confirmed what I already knew: That I was a shitty-ass employee and I'd better start my own business.

The reason I do Shark Tank isn't to try take make more money of the deals, even though every deal I want to make money off of and even more so I want the entrepreneurs to be very successful and make money, but Shark Tank sends a message to everybody that the American Dream is alive and well.

Once you are prepared and you think you have every angle of preparation covered, you have to go for it.

All you need is a laptop or a PC and an Internet connection and you can pretty much do almost anything and create almost any type of company.

It doesn't matter how many times you fail. You only have to be right once and then everyone can tell you that you are an overnight success.
