Yeah she’s such a joke… always comes up with the most bogus reasons to pull out of deals. Hey if you truly don’t have any money lying around to invest then just don’t bother to come on the show. It almost seems like she doesn’t have much capital to invest so that’s her reason to pull out of every deal. She’s probably only invested like 2-5% of the money they other sharks have invested in a lifetime 😂😂😂😭 what a waste of a chair, I honestly think the only reason she’s still on shark tank is because she at least makes it entertaining when she pulls out and always insults the entrepreneurs 😂😂😂

Funniest part is there’s total due diligence done after a deal is made to confirm all the financials and claims that were made on air were actually true and factual before anything is finalized, so it’s kind of silly to just claim you think they’re lying and lose out on possibly making money.

[@snakerivercowboy]

squatty potty is a very good product for people with ibs and things like that. the muscle spasms are incredibly painful and being in a squatting position really relaxes everything and should help reduce pain- maybe not by a life changing margin, but when you’re in that kind of inescapable agony, every bit of relief helps. i would highly recommend the squatty potty for people with lower gut issues or gut issues in general.

[@Killersam776]

I like how the sharks just decide to cut the valuation in half because 5% just doesn’t get them excited. That isn’t how it works. They didn’t say anything about the valuation being too high. $7 million in projected revenue in 1 year and they value it at $3.5 million
