Johnny Georges from Arcadia, Florida, a second generation farmer-turned-inventor, went before the investors on Shark Tank asking for a $150,000 investment for 20% of his company. What was his business? A brand new irrigation system that would save local farmers millions in fuel, water and would be good for the national water conservation effort.
Though it seemed like Georges had a bit of a emotional start in his presentation, how he ends his pitch to the Sharks is what blew us away and earned him what we think is one of the best segments on Shark Tank history. Be sure to watch up through the last 60 seconds so you don’t miss any of the touching and inspiring moment, you’ll love how John Paul DeJoria shows up.
“Nobody owes you nothing, life is what you make it.” -Johnny Georges
