50 cent makes 400 million today
50 cent bought 10% of the company that puts out Vitamin Water for 10 million back in 2004 when they released his Formula 50 water. Coca Cola just bought the company for 4.1 billion which puts a smooth 400 million in 50's pocket. Not a bad return on his investment.

here's the story

I can't wait to hear about how many cars, jewellry, guns, and rims he buys with that 400 million. I'm sure he will release a song about spending that money and it will be a top 10 hit

I am more than sure he had nothing to do with that investment. He should, however, give who ever handles his money a big bonus.

Who's hating?


Do you think he's going to open some schools in Harlem, or buy 100 bottles of Cristal and 10 new Rolls Royces?

LOL.
I've always said the smartest businessmen are the ones who are smart enough to realize that they aren't smart enough to do certain things and surround themselves with people who are.

There is a great interview with Warren Buffet on Charlie Rose. It was replayed last night. The guy is full of amazing advice.

one of the guys I work with for legal matters is Eminem's and 50's tax shelter attorney .. he told me awhile back that when 50 was getting endorsement deals he was in the store and bought one of those bottles of water. He liked it and call his manager and said "I can sell water .. get me a deal" and the talks began .. it developed from there and his people made some good choices . He would call us when 50 or eminem were coming to his office (Garden City for you NY guys) but I never went down to meet him. It's just not my style.

Good for him
