For some, the weekend’s a break from work. For others, it’s an extension of the workweek. Here’s what these business leaders do on theirs.
Sergey Brin In his spare time, the Google co-founder likes to push his body to the limit in any way he can. This includes roller hockey, ultimate frisbee, gymnastics, skydiving, and high-flying trapeze.

The billionaire entrepreneur and his wife try to maintain as normal a home life as possible, especially on the weekends. Cuban said in an interview, “Tiff (wife) and I go work out Saturday mornings. Then the rest of the weekend, it’s just us. It’s us putting the kids to bed. It’s us at dinner. We try to be as normal as possible. The whole idea of someone serving you, this and that, that’s not us”.
The Wealthfront CEO said on Quora that he and his wife are big believers in date nights. He says it’s amazing how wonderful a few hours over dinner and drinks can be. “There really aren’t fixed time boundaries between your professional and personal life,” he explained. “That being said, we are all human, and I think you’ll see that most of the time I spend on weekends is focused on spending time with people. It’s the way I recharge, and it’s also the way I keep perspective.”
