Now Those Are Some Expensive Socks
Mark Cuban is the owner of the Dallas Mavericks. He also owns a plethora of businesses such as Landmark Theaters and Magnolia Pictures. As a personality, he is likely best known for his role as an investor on the television show "Shark Tank." Cuban is also a multi-billionaire and can buy pretty much whatever he wants. Even so, $250,000 is a lot to spend on socks.
To be fair, the investment was not for a single pair of high-end golden footies, but for a 20 percent stake in Foot Cardigan, a sock subscription service that has earned nearly $1 million in the last year without Cuban's help.
The premise of the company is that once each month subscribers get a new pair of comfortable, creative socks in the mail.
