In 2004, David Dominic Scali put his entrepreneurial spirit to the test when he participated in the ABC reality television series “The Benefactor,” starring Mark Cuban. The show featured 16 young entrepreneurs competing for a cash prize of a million dollars to fund their winning business idea. Of all the contestants, Dominic Scali was chosen as runner-up, lasting all six episodes, a feat of which he is quite proud. Dominic commented on his experience after his loss: “It is never fun to know you were only one person away from winning a million dollars.” However, still optimistic despite his loss, Dominic stated: “The experience and the knowledge I have not only gained from my discussions with Mark Cuban, but my experience here in Dallas I will carry with me for a lifetime. [Mark Cuban] is one of the most matter-of-fact, tell it like it is businesspeople you will ever meet, and I am happy to say he is now in my network of life-long friends and business acquaintances.” In 2008, David Dominic Scali co-founded the UNLV chapter of MEiSA (Music and Entertainment Industry Student Association) with fellow student and President Stacey Aragon.
