The Most Innovative Company In Shark Tank History | Kevin O’Leary

At the #GameChangersSummit 2022, serial entrepreneur & star of ABC’s “#SharkTank” #KevinOLeary shared a case study of #Blueland and how they overcame launching at the start
of the global pandemic with quick, effective, innovative thinking.
Kevin O'Leary began his career in entrepreneurship with a big idea and zero cash. In 1986, he launched SoftKey Software Products. As sales took off, Kevin later sold his company to the Mattel Toy Company for a staggering $3.7 billion in 1999, one of the largest deals ever done in the consumer software industry.
Since then, Kevin O'Leary has gained a reputation as one of North America's leading business moguls. As a self-proclaimed "eco-preneur," when he's not squeezing the market from his office, he travels the world looking for new opportunities to deploy his capital. His most popular method is as a co-star of ABC's “Shark Tank.” He is on the investment committee of Boston's prestigious 200-year-old Hamilton Trust.

I would be retiring or working less in 5 years and I just want to know best how people split their pay, how much of it goes into savings, spendings or investments. I earn around $165K per year but nothing to show for it yet.

[@ocean9861]

you're not alone, i'm part of the High Earners, Not Rich Yet (HENRY) not having much left after taxes, housing, and family costs.. not to mention saving for an affluent retirement.

[@skydiving81]

Don't be a marketing strategy for luxury brands like Louis Vuitton and Tag Heuer without having your money give birth to more money (I recommend ''The Richest Man In Babylon'') Rather, you can move to wealth by reducing expenses and increasing savings or investments. As far as I'm concerned, its ideal to consult a reliable financial advisor for such objectives.

[@greatestscientist]

@@skydiving81 I totally agree, the end worries of handling my finance came in the person of a licensed advisor from CHARLES SCHWAB, and in less than 5 years, I've made it into a staggering $10M after subsequent investments. In my experience, fear can take control if waiting too long to set investment goals, but that should go away once you set the plan into motion.

Kevin as soon as he hears royalty is done lmao

[@globescape4771]

Wonder if Kevin is still at 3% equity.

[@KeltaHeroe]

If he gave a presentation, I’d probably assume that he is. At least at the time of shooting this talk. They might have bought him out since then, though, especially if they make this much money. But the girl was very business smart to begin with. Out of all her investors, I’d reckon Mr. Wonderful wouldn’t be the first on her list to buy out. Especially if he is this involved. See, he is even doing marketing for them in this talk.

[@superduperboyx]

Maybe he's holding onto the 3% for when they hit $100 million in sales. And using her as a case example only promotes them to get there sooner.

[@TheMoonfam5]

DTC of soap/cleaning products have been done by companies like Shaklee and Amway for decades. On that point, Kevin was incorrect.

[@zecixx]

I was looking for this comment! Amway been selling direct detergents for decades!

[@cassieoz1702]

That might be a 'forever' bottle but the trigger/top needs replacing too regularly when the trigger mechanism fails. Better than the status quo but still crappy

[@jdrodrigues7]

What is he talking about? Amway has been selling detergent and soaps as one of their main products for around 70yrs!

[@James-tv3gy]

Its good product but in australia, if this happens..the big supermarket companies would copy and sell the generic product. Might get 1 or 2 years before it happens

[@hoshifuyo4494]

This is an amazing video and i enjoyed every bit of it. And i'm also excited to share my investment experience so far this year. I believe it will help a lot of people here who are confused on how to startup theirs and be productive for the year.

[@hoshifuyo4494]

From my own point of view, you need to invest smartly if you need the good things of life. so far, i've made over $355k in raw profits from just q4 of the market from my diversified portfolio strategy and i believe anyone can do it if you have the right strategy. Mutual funds takes long time, but investing smartly is the key for short term. Most of us tends to pay more attention to the shiniest position in the market to the cost of proper diversification.

[@emmanuelchikwendu5492]

@@hoshifuyo4494 Wow!!!, This is super awesome. I'm willing to start saving properly or at least have a good investment. Please tell me more about it. I'm an amateur investor, i have 2 IRAs, I do not like the cookie cutter responses from; Fidelity, Vanguard Schwab, etc 7%-9% year on average. How do you invest?

[@hoshifuyo4494]

My portfolio is very much diversified, so it's not like i have a particular fund i invest in, plus i don't do that by myself. I follow the trades of WINONA ALETHEA LIVINGSTON. She is a popular broker you might have heard of. I can correctly say she's worth her salt as a financial adviser, as her diversification skills are top notch. I say so because i see that in her results, as my portfolio grows by averages of 10 to 15% on a monthly basis. Unlike i can say for my IRA which has just been trudging along. My portfolio just mirrors what she trades and not just on some particular industries of my choosing.

[@emmanuelchikwendu5492]

@@hoshifuyo4494 By following trades, do you mean copying her trades, as it is done in etoro? Are you giving her your money or the money says in your account? I have heard about copying trades but have not looked into it. But i have an idea of what it is.

[@hoshifuyo4494]

Yeah exactly. My money stays right in my account. It's all programmatic, plus it's relatively much easier to set up and connect my accounts, than creating a financial plan and drafting investment strategies myself. My account just mirrors her trades in realtime.

I am new to the stock market. Every stock that I bought so far, I was out of luck because I bought them when they were expensive. I feel I missed out on all the stock opportunities so far for the tech stocks. I believe having 75K yearly income would be a good investment so I want to plug all my savings into the stock market. I know this sounds a bit dull but I would like to know if I should learn investing or let somebody else (more capable like a FA) do it for me? Please share your thoughts.

It was early-mid March for me, and I think most everywhere else around here.
