Mark Cuban: "I just don't get it" = Deal killer - GoFuckYourself.com

kmanrox · 07-23-2008, 12:53 AM

I just want to put it out there to save everyone and anyone who deals with me time. If at any point in time you utter the words "Just Don't Get It" or "Just Doesn't Get It" in any conversation with me, I will not do business with you.

If you try to justify your business, idea, proposal or whatever and in the course of conversation you utter these words, you have just proven to me that you are lazy. That rather than discussing the merits of another position, you think I'm stupid enough to dismiss that position because you want me to.

If you truly understand your topic its really easy to stand behind your position with facts and well thought concepts. If you have no idea what you are talking about, the other side "just doesn't get it"

Call it a Mark Cuban rule of investing. If these words come up in any way shape or form, they just dont get "it". "It" being an investment of my time or money

Ballmer spoke about how he contemplated quitting Microsoft a month after joining the company and return to Stanford University business school. Bill passionately implored him to stay and laid out the vision of the company.

"This is what Bill said to me. 'You don't get it. You don't get it. We are going to put a computer on every desk and in every home,'" said Ballmer.

Thats kinda arrogant and stupid of Mark Cuban.

Often idea's are not easily understood and as everyone knows Idea's are hard to grasp when explaining, ESPECIALLY TO MORONS. If ya ask what I think of this investment philosophy of Mark Cubans I would certainly say he missed out on alot of opportunities. Infact I would discount that philosophy as misinformation and quite simply bad advice.

Mark Cuban is arrogant, according to his own stupid statement he would of never invested in Microsoft, for no other reason than Bill uttering those words. lol. He is just an wanker trying to turn pageviews on his shitty little blog so he can feel important - having money apparently isn't enough of an ego stroke for him.

I find it kind of ironic that this comes from Mark Cuban because if you read his rants there are plenty of things he "just doesn't get".
