But despite the chance, he posted on LinkedIn last week, he chose not to invest in Uber — a company that's now worth roughly $138 billion.
It was "one of the greatest mistakes of my investing career," wrote Vaynerchuk, currently the CEO of Vaynerchuk Media.
In 2009, Uber's co-founders sought funding at a $10 million valuation, serial entrepreneur Mark Cuban told Peacock's "Hart to Heart" last year.
"I realized, Uber doesn't sell transportation ... Uber sells us time," Vaynerchuk wrote.
"Just think: If I would've given him $250,000 on a [$10 million] valuation, it'd be billions," he said.
