With a $40 budget, Daymond had to strategize out-of-the-box ways to promote his products. Luckily, desperation breeds innovation, and so he hatched an idea for a creative campaign that eventually launched the FUBU brand into a $6 billion dollar global phenomenon. But it might not have happened if he hadn't started out broke - with nothing but hope and a ferocious drive to succeed by any means possible. u003cpu003e Here, the FUBU founder and star of ABC's Shark Tank shows that, far from being a liability, broke can actually be u003ciu003eyour greatest competitive advantageu003c/iu003e as an entrepreneur.
