Herjavec on Social Media Entrepreneurs Making Wealth Look Too Easy
Ed Mylett Show
Robert Herjavec on The Truth About Success, Shark Tank, & Entrepreneurship
"We have made the pursuit of wealth seem like that's the goal of business, and we have made it seem like it's easy. And so you look at these social influencers, they're flying around in a private jet and they've got, yes, a Lamborghini. That is not the purpose of business."
The Shark Tank investor critiqued the influencer-entrepreneur culture for distorting business reality, arguing social media has made wealth accumulation appear to be the primary goal and falsely accessible. Herjavec stated he has rarely met people who built great businesses solely for a bigger paycheck, emphasizing value creation over displays of wealth. This represents a pointed rebuke of the online business guru ecosystem.
