The sister brother team was pretty impressive. Meh product but really admired their hustle. The girl will go on to do some great things. Lost at Mr. Wonderful telling Gordy he got hosed and to demand more equity from his sister.
After that, they shouldn't have any more kids in the show. That was investment worthy and all of the Sharks were just like yyeeeah I don't want to force you to do this for the rest of your life so I'm out.
I listened to Simmons' podcast with Sacca today. It is basically Sacca talking about himself and name dropping for over an hour, but he is a really smart and interesting dude so it was a good listen bc I did not know his full story. He had some funny interactions with Kobe, and also said he thinks Cuban will run for president and win in 2024 as a moderate R. Also said he used the Sony leaks to see how much Cuban gets paid per Shark Tank episode and used that to negotiate his own deal. Good bit of interesting tech/investing stuff too.
Sacca is a chode. The only thing he brings is being the only one that doesn't wilt in front of Cuban. But that's only after reminding everyone that he was an early investor in Uber a million times. That pod was interesting though.
Barb worth 40m (lawl) Lori worth 50m Robert worth 100m Fubu worth 150m Kevin worth 300m Mark worth 3,000,000,000.00
For good measure since they also occassionally appear... Ashton Kutcher worth $160m Sacca worth $1.2b
He got into some good tech stuff early. Same with Justin Timberlake. Also f anyone who hates on Daymond. Love him and he's a good snapchat follow.
Yea I read a couple articles that say he could be on the way to billionaire status if a couple of his investments have good IPOs.

Robert Herjavec — Shark on ABC's Shark Tank @sacca first off thank you for recommending I check this out - very cool experience. really appreciate all the questions and comments. If I was in the 'pitchers" shoes on Shark Tank I'd like to think I could sell myself and my company enough to get a deal. i am a stickler for numbers so I know that I could stand up to the tough questions. every shark is different. but OBVIOUSLY they would invest in me. except for Barbara. my business would make too much sense. so she wouldn't go for it.
1. She loves to lecture the other sharks on what they should do, "Let him finish Robert" 2. She routinely tells the entrepreneurs what they should/shouldn't do and who they should/shouldn't partner with after she's already out. 3. She bitches to the other male sharks about how they never end up investing in female oriented products/services. (It's their fucking money...they can partner with whoever the hell they want) 4. One instance in particular really soured me to her. There was a female entrepreneur who had a good service/product and was doing a good job overall in her pitch. The entrepreneur started talking about her background when someone asked about it and she got emotional and started tearing up. Barbara then went on a rant to this poor lady about how she wouldn't invest in her because she's too emotional and the second a woman cries in business she looses her credibility or some shit. She just came off like a complete bitch. 5. Fuck Barbara
Daymond seems cool. He raises his own chickens and bees. There's a good chance he and I could knock down a twelver talking about nothing more than gardening and raising your own food.
I've got no problem with Daymond. He likes to stir things up on the show once in a while which is always entertaining. He's also good friends with Josh Altman from Million Dollar Listing LA which is another show I like so that's cool.
He actually featured his flock of Guinea hens the other day on snap chat and then caught a 4 pound bass in his pond. Good stuff. It was actually weird to see him at home because most of the time he is going hotel to hotel and a new city everyday whether it's for meetings or book promo, the dude works. I think some people don't like him because he is very reluctant to get in a bidding war with other sharks and is pretty cautious with his investments for the show overall. Also he can be perceived as overvaluing himself and giving steep deals to the clothing brands that come on the show, but honestly think his track record affords him that luxury.
6. You did a great pitch and all your numbers work out... but its just something with you, i dont really know but i dont think i can trust you. guy is all wait... what the fuck?
Also as much as I would love to hate on Ashton because he is who he is and he's from Ilolwa, etc... He's actually pretty good on the show the couple of times he's made an appearance. He doesn't let the more seasoned sharks run him over or fuck with him.
Ok, no longer "meh" on Sacca. http://nypost.com/2016/05/22/billionaire-throws-tantrum-over-counterfeit-hamilton-tickets/ Billionaire throws tantrum after being denied entry to ‘Hamilton’ By Melkorka Licea May 22, 2016 | 7:25am | Updated Chris SaccaPhoto: WireImage This shark bared his teeth, but he still didn’t get into “Hamilton.” California tech billionaire and frequent “Shark Tank” guest Chris Sacca showed up at the Richard Rodgers Theatre last Thursday with two tickets he bought on StubHub. But when a scanner determined the tickets were counterfeit, and he and wife Crystal English were turned away, Sacca began flapping his jaws. “Do you know who I am?” Sacca thundered repeatedly, according to an eyewitness, a Broadway theater worker who requested anonymity. “He was getting really angry at the ticket scanner,” the tipster said, and speaking in “a really condescending way. “He said he was a ‘shark’ on ‘Shark Tank’ and warned it wouldn’t be good if they couldn’t get in.” Unable to calm Sacca, the ticket taker went to get the manager. The manager “explained the exact same thing, that there’s nothing they could do, this happens to a lot of people and they always tell people to be careful buying tickets second-hand,” the tipster said. The Post has reported on a rising number of ticket scammers plaguing the red-hot Broadway musical, and on a recent police sting — orchestrated by an online victim — that netted an alleged seller of bogus tickets. But Sacca “wouldn’t take no for an answer,” the witness said. “He kept making a scene, saying how they had flown from California and it was his birthday.” After nearly 20 minutes of bickering, the couple left “in a huff.” Ironically, just before he arrived at the theater, Sacca sent a tweet to the show’s writer, director and star, Lin-Manuel Miranda. “Cool if I drop by your place tonight? Any plan around 7:00?” it read. Sacca deleted the tweet shortly after his humiliating exit. Twenty minutes later, the billionaire petulantly tweeted that he was already at another show, comedian Mike Birbiglia’s one-man off-Broadway play, “Thank God For Jokes.” “While the rest of you were waiting in line for Hamilton, we broke ribs laughing w/ @birbigs,” he tweeted. Sacca and English have since redirected their ire at StubHub. “@StubHub @TeamStubHub There isn’t any way to make it up. You keep ruining people’s experiences. It happens. Every. Single. Night,” Sacca tweeted Wednesday. A StubHub spokesman blamed “seller error,” adding they’ve reached out “to apologize and get him back to a show.”
I dont blame him for being pissed. That really fucking sucks. He's smart enough to know the ticket guy has no power to just let him in. Fuck him for being a douche to that guy or girl. Is there a douchier line than "Do you know who I am?"
The answer is no, there isn't a douchier line. Especially when the answer for 99.999% of people is, "no".
I know he's all into tech and silicon valley and whatnot, but doesn't he have an amex concierge to get tickets and stuff for him. new money...
Yeah, that's the other irony. Captain "i'm so important" is buying tickets off fucking stub hub. Guessing he didn't have any luck on craigslist.
If he really wanted to impress and appear so fucking important he would've just turned around to someone in line behind him and gave them $5K for their tickets.
Holy shit at that last guy not partnering with Mr. Wonderful because he didn't think he was a good partner. Seemed like a huge douche too.
This could be good. I could see Branson throwing around ridiculous money just to spite the other Sharks because he can.
Yeah part of me was laughing when he said to the one entrepreneur "I'll give you the money that you want and then give all of my profits from it to charity" The other part of me didn't like it because if that became a trend on the show then it would just become a show where money is thrown at the people with the best story instead of the best potential. I don't think that will happen, but still....
