Jake Paul is known for his antics online! Through these antics, Jake ‘The Problem Child’ has made a highly lucrative career for himself. Over the years, he has called out a plethora of personalities on social media for a boxing fight and otherwise. But no one expected him to call out a $5.1 billion entrepreneur and film producer eight years ago. Jake sent this multi-billion dollar business mogul a scathing email, calling him out about one of his business ventures.

Wondering who this businessman is? Well, it’s none other than Mike Cuban, known for owning his own NBA team, the Dallas Mavericks, and for his appearance on Shark Tank. During his appearance in the latest episode of Impaulsive with Logan Paul and Mike Majlak, Mark Cuban revealed an email Jake Paul sent to him back in 2015. In addition to revealing the old email from an 18-year-old Jake Paul, Cuban also reveals his response to Jake that left Logan and Majlak in tears. So, the burning question is – what did ‘The Problem Child’ write in his email to billionaire Mark Cuban?

While appearing on the podcast, Logan Paul recollected the time Cuban responded to an email about Jake Paul’s social media app idea. Cuban initially wrote back that it was a good idea but not a great one, so Jake wrote to him again. Later, Cuban read out loud what Jake wrote in response to his feedback on the app idea. He began by reading Jake’s response, criticizing Cuban’s app Cyber Dust. “And cyber dust is a great idea. They should have called it we’re trying to be Snapchat,” Cuban reiterated Jake’s email.

Jake went on to write that he would be framing Cuban’s initial response and proudly displaying it in his office. “I’m blowing up your last email. I’m framing it in our office, and I’ll see you at series A,” wrote Jake. He went as far as to remind Cuban that he is a social media genius, so he would not make a stupid app. “Remember, social media is my Mastery. I wouldn’t make something that’s dumb,” wrote Jake. He further justified his claim by suggesting he is eighteen and knows what kids want. “I’m also 18. I know what the kids want. Thanks for your time,” Jake wrote. After reiterating Jake’s email, Cuban told Logan about his response to this email, leaving Logan in tears. “So I said f**k You b***h, no I didn’t,” said Cuban.
