I consider this a compliment. When I’ve been rejected, my best things happen,” Corcoran says she wrote in the email, listing off all of her accomplishments that came after rejections.

Corcoran has been a staple on “Shark Tank” for each of its 14 seasons. She has invested more than $5 million (per Sharkalytics) in 82 episodes of the show, and her biggest deal was with Coverplay; she offered a whopping $350,000 for a 40% stake in the company.
