Mark Cuban Stimulus Plan


Just when Mark Cuban has started to drift away from the spot light with the Dallas Mavericks, Dancing with the Stars, and by just being loud, Cuban has shaken up it again and found a way to have his name being talked about. 

He decided to create an open source type of funding in which he calls "The Mark Cuban Stimulus Plan." Basically, he has created a challenge for the best business ideas, and if he likes them, he will invest. You post your business idea on his blog and it will turn into an open forum about your business idea. Open to Cuban to comment on as well as the public to criticize. 

Here's what Cuban has to say:

" If its a good idea and worth funding, we want it replicated elsewhere. The idea is not just to help you, but ot figure out how to help the economy through hard work and ingenuity. If you come up with the idea and get funding, you have a head start. If you execute better than others, you could possibly make money at it... I will invest money in businesses presented here on this blog. No minimum, no maximum, but a very specific set of rules."
