Being rich is a good thing. Not just in the obvious sense of benefitting you and your family, but in the broader sense. Profits are not a zero sum game. The more you make, the more of a financial impact you can have.

More quotes by Mark Cuban
One thing I learned in the NBA is that the No. 1 job of a general manager is to keep his job. They are only 30 positions where you make millions and hang around with basketball players all day.
Mark Cuban
Because if you're prepared and you know what it takes, it's not a risk. You just have to figure out how to get there. There is always a way to get there.
Mark Cuban
The NBA is never just a business. It's always business. It's always personal. All good businesses are personal. The best businesses are very personal.
Mark Cuban
I was a beast in college. I worked hard and I played hard. I was relentless learning about business. I actually snuck into MBA classes my freshman and sophomore years. I wanted to challenge myself to see how I compared to the smartest kids at Indiana University so I was 18 and pretended I was an MBA student.
Mark Cuban
It's not whether the glass is half empty or half full, it's who is pouring the water. The key in business and success at any endeavor is doing your best to control your destiny. You can't always do it, but you have to take every opportunity you can to be as prepared as-and ahead of-the competition as you possibly can be.
Mark Cuban
Always wake up with a smile knowing that today you are going to have fun accomplishing what others are too afraid to do.
Mark Cuban
I love helping entrepreneurs. It's something I really have fun doing. It's like planting a little seed and watching it grow. Any time I can help somebody, that's a good thing. It's fun. If I get to make some money at it, it's even better.
Mark Cuban
With every effort, I learned a lot. With every mistake and failure, not only mine, but of those around me, I learned what not to do. I also got to study the success of those I did business with as well. I had more than a healthy dose of fear, and an unlimited amount of hope, and more importantly, no limit on time and effort.
Mark Cuban
As I would learn later in life, money makes you extremely handsome.
Mark Cuban
I love to compete. I want to get out there and kick your ass in the business world. That is what inspires me.
Mark Cuban
If it had anything to do with the PC or networking industry I was on top of it. I bought manuals. I read every book and magazine. Then I would get involved with industry conferences and put myself out there.
Mark Cuban
Do the work. Out-work. Out-think. Out-sell your expectations. There are no shortcuts.
Mark Cuban
If you're looking where everybody else is looking, you're looking in the wrong spot.
Mark Cuban
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.
Mark Cuban
In these times of the Great Recession, we shouldn't be trying to shift the benefits of wealth behind some curtain. We should be celebrating and encouraging people to make as much money as they can. Profits equal tax money. While some people might find it distasteful to pay taxes, I don't. I find it patriotic.
Mark Cuban
It takes time, it's a grind. There are no shortcuts. You've got to grind and grind.
Mark Cuban
What I’ve learned in these 11 years is you just got to stay focused and believe in yourself and trust your own ability and judgment.
Mark Cuban
Never follow your dreams. Follow your effort. It's not about what you can dream of. That's easy. It's about whether or not it's important enough to you to do the work to be ready to be successful in that business.
Mark Cuban
It comes down to finding something you love to do and then just trying to be great at it
Mark Cuban
The number-one job of the hedge-fund manager is not to make sure that you can retire with a smile on your face - it's for him to retire with a smile on his face.
