Kevin O'Leary

Define happy.

What does that mean?

Yes, I mean, look, there's lots of social issues, and there always has been.

You could say that it would have some effect on society.

But let me remind you something, and I'm probably the right guy to make this comment because I spend a lot of time all around the world investing all around the world.

i don't care where you go and and i feel this way and over the life and i've really learned this over the last 20 years um what is the number one export of america it's not energy and it's not technology it's actually the american dream for all its faults that america has everybody i meet in every country

Pretty well every single one would like to figure out how they can get to America, start a business, and be part of the American dream.

And I go to some pretty gnarly places where people are willing to risk their lives to go under a river with barbed wire to get in here.

So until that changes...

which I don't see ever happening, my only concern is China.

Okay, let's make it really basic.

Let's go to Shark Tank.

Those people that trot out in front of me and have done for almost 20 years with an idea to solve someone's problem that they'll get paid for.

And 80% fail, but 20% make it.

And it creates personal freedom for them because it was just an idea.

I mean, I think of some of these things, wicked good cupcakes, set two women free for the rest of their lives, base paws, cat DNA testing, aniskaya.

A researcher that came up with this idea walked away with $105 million cash 36 months later.

That's the American dream, and I'm an ambassador for it.

Is it fair to summarize?

It's not about the greed of money.
