💰 Mark Cuban invests $1M in golf startup

Mark Cuban hates golf. His words, not mine. But, he recently invested $1,000,000 in BucketGolf: a company that sells “portable” golf courses.

The deal: Cuban invested $1M for 15% equity in the company.

If you’re still confused on what BucketGolf is, check out this video. ⬇️

Here’s another golf company, Bad Birdie, pitching the Sharks. Spoiler alert: they putt for equity. ⬇️

👑 U.S. Presidents love golf

Regardless of the list, this famous video of George Bush on the golf course is my favorite video ever. ⬇️

Last week, we took Chiefs -8.5, they won by 6. Bogey Bois picks are now 1-5. That is a lot of losses. Money is tight…we need a lock. We’ve been very conservative, all favorites and overs. And that’s not going to change.

🏈 Bogey Bois Pick: Ravens -6.5

The pick is in. Do with that what you will.
