On July 4, Mark Cuban tweeted that it was the anniversary of the date he left Indiana University in Bloomington "with $60, hole in my floorboard, case of oil in the trunk & a floor to sleep on in Dallas."

A few days later, Cuban, then 23, moved in to a $600-a-month five-bedroom apartment with five other guys.

"Literally, Cuban landed on our doorstep flat-busted broke," Greg Schipper, one of those roommates, tells the Dallas News.

Yeah, but later became one of the most obnoxious, sanctimonious ah's in the business world.  His cut them off at the knees mentality is well documented.  Also beware...his almost "human" persona on Shark Tank" is bullshit too
