I'm sure being seen as a judge on Shark Tank is profitable too. I can't imagine he hasn't received deal offers because of his involvement in the show.
The majority are probably worthless, but there's a non-zero chance he gets a buy-in on a new venture whose founder isn't savvy to chase normal money but did contact "that famous guy from Shark Tank."
