"Shark Tank" Investor Daymond John Has Earned His American Dream | The Show
2023-07-13
Business is fundamentally about creating value by solving a problem. Anybody with a great idea, regardless of their circumstances, has the potential to turn that idea into success with hard work and determination. Unfortunately, our school system clearly hasn’t prepared our kids, or us, to manage our money.
Today’s guest, Daymond John, is best known as ‘The People’s Shark’ on ABC’s Shark Tank, but now he’s tackling financial education head-on with his children’s book, Little Daymond Learns to Earn, teaching kids the basics of money and starting their own businesses. He has a true passion for teaching kids about finance, entrepreneurship, and the value of hard work. Daymond is also the CEO and founder of FUBU, a $6 billion fashion brand he started with only $40 and a van.
This episode of Dad Saves America was produced with the support of the Arthur N. Rupe Foundation.
