50's Big Score
Most people know 50 cent for his debut album "Get Rich Or Die Tryin" which sold over a million copies in the first two weeks, in 2003 50 won best album of the year!
Lets fast forward four years. 2007 50's career in well established and earlier in his career he purchased 10% of a company named Glaceau, better known as the company who introduced Vitamin Water to the world.
May 2007, Fif decided to sale his share along with the other to Coca Cola for a total of $4.1 Billion dollars. some of the first reports state fif got a whopping $400 Million for his 10% but that's not the case of course after paying back investors and other financial associates.
50 ended up with a figure somewhere in between $60 and $100 million, boosting his net worth to half a million dollars. that is how he remains on the Forbes top five richest rappers to this day and he hasn't released an album since 2014 that made his fifth studio album.
Fif is also responsible for one of the hottest Tv series aired to this day. the show Power is on Starz and does breaking numbers every week. Id say Mr. Jackson has took his knowledge and used it to benefit him the best way he possibly could!


Very interesting post! I didn't know about the vitamin water business venture he did!
ReplyDelete50, unh!! Bentley, unh!! 50 is a great business man and has an abundance of small shares. I didn't know that him and vitamin water had a partnership together.
ReplyDelete50 cent was one of the best rappers in the game back when I lived in North Carolina and "In Da Club" came on it was a hit every time. I had heard rumors that he was filing for bankruptcy, but didn't really believe much because I know he runs Power and still had that contract which sold for Vitamin Water.
ReplyDeleteReally interesting read! The numbers were incredibly informative and I loved the way you worded it all. I love the look of your blog as well!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great post! I think the length is pretty good, not too long and not too short. I don't know much about this topic so I am excited to learn more. :)
