On the other hand, while Mark Cuban joined three seasons later, he has built a strong name for himself as a Shark panel member.

Opinion Of Fans On Who Earned More Transparently

When it comes to the overall fortune of Shark investors, Mark Cuban tops the list with about $5.7 billion. Whereas Robert Herjavec falls behind with a $300 million net worth. But the total wealth of both the Shark investors is not just a result of their investments on the show. Instead, it includes the amount from other ventures.

This is how the discussion of fans was not limited to Mark and Robert’s earnings through Shark Tank. Another subcategory for this discussion was focused on who earned more transparently, not who made a larger fortune.

After hundreds of votes, IMDb declared Robert Herjavec as the winner of the comparison. The fans gave many reasons for choosing Robert. But one that topped the list was how he convinced the management at IBM for a sales job by saying he would work free for six months.

During that period, Robert also worked as a waiter to pay his rent. But the Shark investor’s hard work paid off, and he went on to launch two IT companies. After selling both, Robert earned huge.

As fans thought Robert Herjavec’s story of making a huge fortune had both hustle and heart, he was the winner.

Conclusion

Although Mark Cuban has the largest fortune amongst all the Shark investors, fans chose Robert Herjavec to make his wealth more transparent. Robert’s determination was reflected in his experiences of working for free at IBM to waiting tables. As fans related to his authenticity, they chose him over Mark.
