However, billionaire entrepreneur Mark Cuban recently released a TikTok video calling out these influencers. According to him, these influencers are lying because extremely successful people don’t share their secrets.

In one of his “Tip of the Day” videos, Cuban exposed influencers. In the now-viral video, Cuban says, “When you see somebody on social media, Cuban exposes influencers in telling you how they’re going to mg.”

Cuban’s Video Went Viral

Furthermore, the successful entrepreneur also said, “I’m going to give you a secret that all successful people know: When you have a great idea, when you have a way to make lots of money, the number one thing you’re not going to do is sell that idea, sell that service, sell that approach to anybody else.”

Cuban also explains that very successful people will not sell the idea that’s making them rich. He added that one serious issue with buying an idea from an influencer online is that that same idea is available to everyone online.

Too Many People, One Business Idea

As the video continues, Mark Cuban says, “Let me just give you some common sense information here… they’re creating competition for you. Now there [are] 10, 20, 30, 100 people doing the exact same thing as you.”

So, according to Cuban, these financial or business influencers are lying to their fans. He also said that even if they shared a great idea, it would be too common for the average person to make the most of it.

Cuban Discouraged People From Believing Everything Influencers Say

Cuban then addressed those people who follow the influencers’ ideas. He said, “And you know what they call someone who goes into business where there’s [an] unlimited number of people that you already know are doing the exact same thing as you? They call them stupid. Don’t do it.”

“Do not send your money to anybody online who’s just telling you they’re going to make you rich. If they were really that good, they would be making themselves rich and not sharing it,” he added.

The businessman had more to say. He pointed out examples of how average people can save and, be great at something and become as rich as they want.

He also explained that saving a couple of hundred dollars might not seem like a big deal at first. However, intelligent business-minded people can use the saved money to invest in a business.

Start Small, Grow Big

However, many Americans don’t believe their funds are enough to make significant investments. Nonetheless, Cuban said that anyone could invest. Even the most minor monthly investment will grow over the years and provide profit.

He said, “You want to put [savings] in a money market account earning 5, maybe more percent, and watch that sucker grow.”

This may seem like baby steps to many people. Also, it could be challenging for some people to set aside some money every month, especially when they don’t earn so much. According to Cuban, it is better to be broke for some time for a big payout in the future.

Dedication Pays Off

Furthermore, Cuban encouraged people to commit and dedicate themselves to whatever they do. According to him, people can master skills that will earn them money over time.

He said, “Being good at something takes time. So in your job, whatever it is that you do, be great at that job. Because when you’re great, people recognize your greatness, and they want to pay you more.”
