The 'Comfy' is my most profitable Shark Tank investment ever

The one that I made the most money on already in just a few short years, millions of dollars, is Comfy... They've sold over 70 million dollars... I took just a 30% of their interest just because I like the guys.

At the time of recording, this was true. The Comfy became a massive viral hit and remained one of her top earners.

A-Rod probably saved sports and the world by talking to President Trump

A-Rod probably saved sports and the world but I'm not bragging about it... Sports will probably be back before you even know because President Trump called up A-Rod on Friday night.

While Trump did call A-Rod, A-Rod did not actually 'save the world' or sports; the pandemic continued for years.

A-Rod used to buy three custom suits for every rookie on his team to teach them how to dress in the big leagues

A-Rod every year would buy every new player on the team, every rookie who was coming up, three new custom-made suits... he'd take them to his tailor, he'd buy them three suits and say 'this is how you have to dress, you're in the big leagues now kid.'

This is a well-documented story from former teammates regarding Alex Rodriguez's generosity to rookies.

I could survive retirement if I were able to gamble on sports every night

I might never be able to retire because I'm like a worker bee that needs to be working... if I had the ability to still gamble on Sports at night? Would that keep me working enough? Because that just part that you have to pay your you have to pay your gambling debts... I think the answer is yes.

This is a subjective assessment of Big Cat's own lifestyle and motivation.

Hank's LR Quill sleep-aid toothpaste idea is terrible and tastes like crap

We tried both of these formulations [LR Quill/Lister Quill]... it didn't tell you to sleep on it. It tasted like crap.

Barbara's assessment of the product's quality is her subjective expert opinion.

The secret ingredient to success is how long a person takes to feel sorry for themselves after a failure

When I really analyzed over the years what a secret ingredient is... it was exactly what you just said: how long they take to feel sorry for themselves... It's how long it takes. Some say 'oh poor me' and some get right back up.

This is a subjective business philosophy that cannot be definitively proven right or wrong.

You should use specific numbers like $990,045 for real estate offers to make the buyer appear more thoughtful

I never let [the buyer] go in with a 990 or for I always said put it in at nine hundred ninety thousand and forty five dollars or some shit like that. Why because... what do you think the seller owes a why that price because they've given its so much careful thought they really I arrived at exactly the value they want to really come in The Sweet Spot. This is what they have to offer and they mean it.

This is a professional business tactic based on Corcoran's career experience.
