  1. Don't help Cuban whitewash his image. Mark is widely known to have pumped several crypto scams, some of which he had major equity in. He's now a defendant, countersuing to be able to claim the wrong type of Bankruptcy in order to de-proitize payouts to the customers he scammed, so he can pocket more of the little money that remains.
    Cuban is Truly a Despicable Human. It should be diagnosible as a severe mental disease to be so heartless.
    Cuban and many of the other "Sharks" from the show, do all kinds of unethical and legally dubious dealing through hundreds to thousends? of shell company's in countless busines sectors.
    Again please don't help rehabilitate Mark Cubans public image.
    He is using his "good name" to try to offload his bankrupt scam Voyager (and his affiliated shell corporations).
    Trying to sell to Binance.us.
    The shady, opaque, unregulated over, leveraged unlicensed brokerage/ico/ponzi.
    This scheme can very well work for a while maybe years if another bull run.
    Be assured that all the major parties attempting this "~ illegal leveraged monies buyout ~".
    Those party's care most about their own bottom line.
    They're a Despicable Bunch of Confidence Men…..and some, I assume are good people.

  2. As much as I don't like billionaires, at least he's trying to help.

  3. Thank you mark for
    Helping the senior citizens

  4. when a guy can spend 200k in 1 month as expendable income for whatever whena frist world county average American would need 9+ years to spend that much money a large part of their lives hes a pos lvl of hitlar he cares nothing of ppl stuggling when he can help if he wanted to… keep in mind any cuban fans he proably makes 4-10X americans for sitting in a chair with ppl begging for money to push a item that him and other sharks have made millions of ppl average ppl needed the start up…

  5. Mark Cuban s a crook and greedy he only cares about him self

  6. The American Medical System is for profit though.

  8. ⬆️⬆️ look up my handle he sells all microdosing and psychedelic stuff 💊🍄🍫🍫….

  9. Mark Cuban’s The Man!! We need more people like him in this world.

  10. I'm done sitting tight for the award advance since i acquire$23,000 every 12 days of my investment.❤️🇺🇸

  11. How much does he charge his insulin? In japan its less than 300

  12. GOD BLESS YOU MR. CUBAN THE WORLD NEEDS MORE PEOPLE LIKE YOU! MAY YOUR TRIBE INCREASE!

  13. Mark Cuban is a Republican. If the media reports this, he would be banned

  14. Some billionaires try to do something good for the society. Others want to change the society to make more billions or wants to impose their ideology. Just look at the madness at Twitter.

  15. He is from Pittsburgh, so of course he is a great guy with integrity.

  16. This is something the free market cannot solve on it's own, sadly. There need to be better regulation.

  17. I saw a "This skin-like computing chip uses AI to monitor health data"…. I was wondering if would people riot in the street for adopting mark of the beast technology. Human are controlled by A.I. Artificial intelligence help human life longer than normal life. reduce doctor visits, less worries,, avoid taking drugs, and doing daily execute route… would people riots the street, smash stores, and attack people adopting AI health monitor system?

  18. I'm done sitting tight for the award advance since i acquire$23,000 every 12 days of my investment

  19. Your "Evil" . Cannot even speak truthfully for what it is actually.

  20. We must protect Mark Cuban! Big Pharma is evil!!

  21. A billionaire with a heart instead of an oversized ego — almost seems like an oxymoron.God bless you, Mark Cuban!

  22. I sure hope he can really change this

  23. I appreciate Mark Cuban for offering this alternative to traditional pharmacies. Eventually, it will make money in volume with more people buying like the supermarket/grocery model.

  24. The less they cost the more they make…

  25. Mark is perhaps one of the few billionaires who understands that one of the ingredients to his success (in addition to hard work and grit) was a bit of luck. He was always going to be a millionaire, but being alive in the age of the internet helped propel him to the three comma club. When Shaq mentioned how lucky he was to strike gold in the Internet age, Mark clapped back that "oh yeah, and you meant to be 7'2" and athletic." There's a bit of luck in all of our successes and failures. It's not the only thing, but it does exist.

  26. wait for it…, soon he will show his true greedy face, no billionaire is there to save americans. who are you kidding ?

  27. Not all billionaires are equal. Elon should take a lesson from this dude and Bill Gates.
