True as fuck besides rich people invest in physical assets while most of the middle class live on borrowed time and rely on a currency that is based on faith!
50idddy is a marketing genius with my mind I would love to have a conversation with him if it could be a dialogue it would be a very interesting conversation! very provocative and compelling!
I think both Jay-z and 50cent are brilliant business men they've had the discipline to contain self-control to build to a level of excellence bravo for once someone is 'getting it' I admire their mind state on business and their intelligent approach to the ideas of what they do!
This was a good interview. 50 was really impressive, but I think its very important for us to recognize that guys like 50cent & Jay-Z shouldnt be looked upon as role models. These are the same guys that admitted to selling poision on the streets in their own communities. I think its possible for us to appreciate the success of these men without saying the way they went about it is the model we should be following.
KRS One said it best you can love your hood without loving poverty! There comes a time in your life you have to end gangbanging, you need to leave a legacy for your kids this is smart. Buying $100,000 chains and not investing it is stupid and that's why many are in recession mode. you got to hustle by all means!
you can see that 50 Cent aka Curtis James Jackson III is not used to wearing a suit and tie. Still, with this book he'll be remembered for generations to come in libraries and not as another hip-hop singer.
gotta give it to 50..he's a real business man and about his shit not like these rappers today who think they're soo business savy cuz they got money for throwing words on a beat and blowing blunts to them. All that money they got is for being entertainers and not some "boss ass business man who knows whats good in the business world" 50 is a opportunist who made his money and kept it moving while bunch of these rappers r stuk with that rap shit who eventually fall off and get bak to pushin weigt
he hit it dead on! if people download something "illegally" and feel it, they'll almost feel guilty and go buy it and support that artist. there's so much bullshit being put out, that it's hard to keep up on what's new and still be able to pay the bills. i have illegally downloaded all of 50's albums and have gone back and bought them. put out a quality product and u don't stress about sales, he surely doesn't seem to. so companies should follow him by putting out quality products.
whats interesting to me is that the interviewers are obviously impressed with him and his fortune. and at the end, they're like "you're a great guy!" -- which he probably is. however, 50's career kinda revolves, lyrically speaking, around the notion that he kills people and has avoided being killed. and i'm probably speaking more about his older records, considering the change in his surroundings in the last decade. but if its true, i wonder if those interviewers think about that at the time
yes he has a big house which it isnt only him living him... look at some other artists with not nearly as much money as him and look how they spend it...
Fucking great guy. For those interested in personality types, look up the Myers Briggs. He's an INTJ. It's said that only 3% of people have that type, and they are usually very intelligent, forward thinking, and goal oriented.
never judge a book by its cover & the power of somebody's mind,, 50cent is one of those ambitious young Brothas who decided to use his brain to become a success,, just like JAY Z did .. the majority of dudes from the HOOD can do the same thing, but they just gotta want to do it like Jay & 50 did
@cetnickiponos You obviously don't understand the term "businessman". He was an original investor in Vitamin Water, and made 100 million after taxes when it sold to Coca Cola. A businessman doesn't have to be a creator or inventor, he needs to be able to spot and exploit opportunities, run companies, etc.
this is the fairest interview I have ever seen with a rapper, most interviewers would talk about his music and material but they kept it so professional.
I dont think that is very accurate. 50 is a one of a kind and it takes some real brains and balls to do what he has. Regardless of his backround, colour etc, he is a true businessman and is as real as it gets. Jay Z is not on his level, he has gained from other peoples losses, in the worst kind of ways.
Are you joking me right now? He was approached with the idea and didn't have to invest too much.. If it wasn't for Eminem and Dre he would be no where... he was with the right people with the right story... Since that.. what has he done? any CDS sold? headphones sold out? 50 is PLAYED OUT... he aint no JAY-Z or PUFFY... he made his millions on that drink... and now he's drifting..
Mmg will never be as good a g unit back in the days . Remember that we only judge people on what they done and not what their are at the moment. 50 is no longer a rapper stop talkin shit about him. Rick ross aint that rich, he keeps talkin about money, but hes actually the poorest in the game.
he's no business man... alll the shit he's tried to do on his own hasn't been successful... all the shit he did back in the day wasn't his work... it was someone else using his fame for there gain! After the vitamin water (which again wasn't his idea or his invention) what has he invented that has made him that much money? look at his new album NO ONE BUYS HIS SHIT!

Underrated Genius.
True as fuck besides rich people invest in physical assets while most of the middle class live on borrowed time and rely on a currency that is based on faith!

I think both Jay-z and 50cent are brilliant business men they've had the discipline to contain self-control to build to a level of excellence bravo for once someone is 'getting it' I admire their mind state on business and their intelligent approach to the ideas of what they do!

I respect this guy....hes a smart businessman for sure and his music is somewhat decent even if its not the greatest

fifty has fought his way to material success
Brilliant simply brilliant. It's amazing how much respect I have for this man.
He's actually articulated
we wanna make it bigger than life
rich people have their money make money. einstein said compound interest is the greatest force in the universe.
he hit it dead on! if people download something "illegally" and feel it, they'll almost feel guilty and go buy it and support that artist. there's so much bullshit being put out, that it's hard to keep up on what's new and still be able to pay the bills. i have illegally downloaded all of 50's albums and have gone back and bought them. put out a quality product and u don't stress about sales, he surely doesn't seem to. so companies should follow him by putting out quality products.

50 is cool and all, but damn it man straighten that tie!!!
50 cent is a fuckin boss
He did the Jay-z laugh!
360 deal in other words means the record company OWNS you it's modern day slavery
50 tie crooked... he's a real hustler. That isn't a negative thing if you know the actual definition of hustler
yes he has a big house which it isnt only him living him... look at some other artists with not nearly as much money as him and look how they spend it...
Fucking great guy. For those interested in personality types, look up the Myers Briggs. He's an INTJ. It's said that only 3% of people have that type, and they are usually very intelligent, forward thinking, and goal oriented.
*ENTJ , 50 is an Extroverted Performer and Entertainer
never judge a book by its cover & the power of somebody's mind,, 50cent is one of those ambitious young Brothas who decided to use his brain to become a success,, just like JAY Z did .. the majority of dudes from the HOOD can do the same thing, but they just gotta want to do it like Jay & 50 did
7:40 his laugh :D
He isn't a suite and tie and he may be applying one of Greens Laws of power "Seem less than perfect"
@exkon hahahah omg i didnt even notice until you said that, lol you made laugh good day to you sir
we are still in a recession
Smart Man.
look at how they laugh when he says where he comes from everyone lives in a recession...
that interview mustah been hard for him i saw her bring the kid outta 50
my mom preached the same thing
I was just pointing out that she said 50 Cents (Plural). I mean, if you're gonna interview someone, you should probably know his name first.
@cetnickiponos You obviously don't understand the term "businessman". He was an original investor in Vitamin Water, and made 100 million after taxes when it sold to Coca Cola. A businessman doesn't have to be a creator or inventor, he needs to be able to spot and exploit opportunities, run companies, etc.
count how many times the big homie uses the word "actual"
Great guy, but seriously he does live a lavished life stlye. Seen his mtv cribs?
hahahaha lmaoooo 50 cent funny! 7:41 i aint scared thats what the book about
I was annoyed by his speech before I learned that he has a bullet fragment in his tongue. He's actually gotten better.
this is the fairest interview I have ever seen with a rapper, most interviewers would talk about his music and material but they kept it so professional.
50 cent on getting rich...didnt know hes not.
I dont think that is very accurate. 50 is a one of a kind and it takes some real brains and balls to do what he has. Regardless of his backround, colour etc, he is a true businessman and is as real as it gets. Jay Z is not on his level, he has gained from other peoples losses, in the worst kind of ways.
its funny cos the rolling stones did toothpaste commercials
Are you joking me right now? He was approached with the idea and didn't have to invest too much.. If it wasn't for Eminem and Dre he would be no where... he was with the right people with the right story... Since that.. what has he done? any CDS sold? headphones sold out? 50 is PLAYED OUT... he aint no JAY-Z or PUFFY... he made his millions on that drink... and now he's drifting..
"How rapper 50Cents changed his mindset from employee to investor" 50Cents? are you fucking kidding me?
WHY DID THE BROADCASTER TRY TO GET G AND SAY 50 LIKE FIDDY CENT
do anything for money
Wow that is cynicaly true.
I've never seen someone talk through their teeth so much
Lmao harvard talk jaja
@sumdumfoo1 Master P is probably worth more than both combined!
Mmg will never be as good a g unit back in the days . Remember that we only judge people on what they done and not what their are at the moment. 50 is no longer a rapper stop talkin shit about him. Rick ross aint that rich, he keeps talkin about money, but hes actually the poorest in the game.
@hypekyd1 i love 50 business
@Gr0mmet cause he got shot in the face. DUH!
he's no business man... alll the shit he's tried to do on his own hasn't been successful... all the shit he did back in the day wasn't his work... it was someone else using his fame for there gain! After the vitamin water (which again wasn't his idea or his invention) what has he invented that has made him that much money? look at his new album NO ONE BUYS HIS SHIT!
