Business Mogul Alex Rodriguez Teamed Up With $4.8 Billion Worth Mark Cuban for the Second Time for an Exceptional Project in 2019

While growing up, Alex Rodriguez had seen only two dreams. One of them was to play baseball and the second one was to become a successful businessman. He played baseball for over twenty seasons. Since he successfully aced his 1st dream by playing top-level baseball for over two decades, the former Yankee has been constantly focusing on his post-retirement career i.e. doing business under his investment company A-Rod Corp.

Back in 2019, while pursuing his second dream, A-Rod teamed up with the famous Shark Tank judge and billionaire business tycoon Mark Cuban for a special project.

Notably, A-Rod himself has been to several Shark tank episodes while accompanying the Shark Tank judges. And after getting in touch with Cuban from there, the former Yankee got along with the $4.8 billion worth American businessman. The two bonded enough to make yet another investment together, but not on Shark Tank.
