More quotes by Mark Cuban
I'm not against government involvement in times of need. I am for recognizing that big public companies will continue to cut jobs in an effort to prop up stock prices, which in turn stimulates the need for more government involvement.
Mark Cuban
I create offbeat advice I don't follow it. I rarely take third-party advice on my investments.

If you think back to the first sporting event you went to, you don't remember the score, you don't remember a home run, you don't remember a dunk. You remember who you were with. Were you with your mom, your dad, your brother, on a date?
Mark Cuban
Executives should blog if they have a vision they are trying to communicate, or if they are very visible in the media.
Mark Cuban
Learn to sell. In business you’re always selling: to your prospects, investors and employees. To be the best salesperson put yourself in the shoes of the person to whom you’re selling. Don’t sell your product. Solve their problems.
Mark Cuban
Forget about finding your passion. Instead, focus on finding big problems.

Business is a sport and I want to win. I want to kick your ass. I may not win every game. But I certainly am going to try.

If Ayn Rand were an up-and-coming author today, she wouldn't write about steel or railroads, it would be Net Neutrality.

I think that any reporter or columnist will be a little more careful when doing interviews with me.
Mark Cuban
I don't think there's any question that the UFL or any other league that wants to challenge the NFL can have an impact. The demand for professional football is off the charts.
Mark Cuban
When you turn your team upside down and try to figure out what the culture of the team is, you take the greatest risk a team can take.
Mark Cuban
I do everything via email. Which in turn works as my tickler file and prioritization queue. I start at the top every morning and keep on going until I'm finished. I don't do calls. I don't do meetings.
Mark Cuban
I just started a business called HDNet. There never is one area that has a door open to everyone. Try to find an area with something you love to do and do it. It's a lot easier to work hard and prepare when you love what you are doing.
Mark Cuban
Most people think money is the key to reducing risk. Prepartion is.
Mark Cuban
I was lucky. I grew up knowing that hard work and smart work has a greater impact on results than being passionate about something.
Mark Cuban
Once you have found out what you love to do, there is only one goal: to be the best in the world at it.

I think college is an absolute. In this world you have to learn how to learn and get in the habit of always wanting to learn. Some kids have that out of high school and may be able to do the college equivalent of home schooling. Most kids can't. So I highly recommend going to college.

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
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.
