3 Clues Mark Cuban Was Ready To Leave Shark Tank

Mark Cuban waited until 2023 to make his formal announcement about leaving “Shark Tank,” but actually first mentioned his plan a year ago. In 2022, Cuban revealed to CNN that he was considering leaving “Shark Tank” in order to maximize his time with his kids. “It’s not so much Cost Plus Drugs as it is having a daughter who just went to college,” said Cuban about his motivation for leaving the ABC show. “It used to be when they were all in high school and went to the same two schools, all of our schedules could be worked out together. But it was more a question of wanting to spend more time with my family,” he added.

Cuban has long publicized his desire to make more quality time for his family. In 2020, Cuban detailed his daily work routine and explained how he incorporated quality time with his wife and children. “After dinner, my wife and I always try to force some family fun or have family movie night, but with three teenagers it’s getting harder and harder,” wrote Cuban on Medium. “They are doing their own things more. I will say that the silver lining of quarantine has been spending a lot more time with family.” And while Cuban admitted that his kids sometimes get sick of him, he feels quite the opposite. “It’s the highlight of my day, every day,” he added.
