While Elon Musk haggled and failed to prevent teen jet-tracking Jack Sweeney from posting the location of his private jet, Jack was persuaded by Mark Cuban to stop disclosing his jet's coordinates in a very creative and cost-free way.

The teen celebrity jet tracker Jack Sweeney has shown that not everything can be purchased with money. Elon Musk, the richest man in the world,

The University of Central Florida sophomore declined to comply with the founder of SpaceX.

However, the young man not only consented but also freely disabled MarkCuban's @MCubansJets. After all, showing respect has its advantages.

Cuban's was the only celebrity, politician, or billionaire Sweeney paid attention to when they asked him to "stop tracking me."

The 19-year-old Sweeney says,

It is more valuable than gold to learn tips and tricks from a maverick like Cuban,

owner of the Dallas Mavericks basketball team. Being the astute teenager he is, Sweeney saw the chance and seized it.

Additionally, Sweeney will actually meet Cuban at a Dallas Mavericks game the following year.

Given that @MCubansJets hasn't tweeted since April, Sweeney is a man of his word. According to its bio, its code has been turned off.
