I haven't watched too much of the show, but I mostly get angry at the people for being so completely clueless about how businesses work, especially THEIR OWN business. I've been a lowly humber cruncher for two huge corporations for like five years and even I know more than these schmucks. It's a glaring example of how the people at the top are completely helpless and the only reason they are there is because they started out with money.
Best part is when one of the sharks will ask a super basic question like what kind of profit do you expect to make this quarter, etc. and they obviously haven't done any math and it takes them by surprise for some reason.
