Mark Cuban, 66, insists he’s not going through a midlife crisis. While he’s not resorting to some of the classic signs of one—like buying an extravagant sports car or changing his appearance—he sold his majority stake in the Dallas Mavericks in late 2023 and announced he’d be leaving “Shark Tank” in 2025 after a decade on the entrepreneur-focused show.
Cuban, who is worth $7.66 billion, told Wired’s Lauren Goode that he’s doing the “exact opposite” of having a midlife crisis. Instead, he’s taken a massive leap into pharmaceuticals, an industry he hasn’t had much experience with before.
