MARK CUBAN

It's remarkable to see high profiled celebrities and figures engaging in illegal practices within the stock market especially when these were one of the causes of the Stock Market Crash during the time of the Great Depression. Martha Stewart was involved in a similar situation, but she got in trouble for lying to the F.B.I for knowing some secrets of the company in which she invested. Why lie to the F.B.I and go to jail when you are very rich and the value of the stock you could lose is a quarter of a million dollars? Even, if you lose that much money, you still have enough money to waste on meaningless things. Mark Cuban is a billionaire and successful entrepreneur for software and computer stuff and he is even the Dallas Mavericks owner. His stock value for Mamma.com was worth $750,000 and of course, why lose your credibility over a stock loss when you are a billionaire? If he is guilty of insider trading then his reputation around the NBA and Dallas Mavericks organization will suffer greatly and he absolutely will have no chance to buy ownership in any baseball team( Cubs and Rockies,etc). Why risk your repuation and credibility over a stock loss when you have so much money to still live like a star? I don't quite understand why people play the stock market on fear and greed rather smart decision making.
