I would say he is a good business man that sourounds himself with better buisnessmen:
*50 Cent's Investment Pays Off, Coca Cola Buys Glacéau For $4.1 Billion In Cash- He owns 10%, do the math= forbes says 100mil cash after taxes.
*Recently listed his 50-room Connecticut manse, appraised at $20 million, on the market. He bought it for $4 million in 2003. (thats with the bad housing market).
His marketing technique (he made happen through pop culture) is impeccable:
*In November 2003, he signed a five year deal with Reebok to distribute a G-Unit Sneakers
*He provided the voice-over 50 Cent: Bulletproof, which was released for PlayStation 2, Xbox, and the PlayStation Portable.
*He has teamed up with Right Guard to launched a body spray called Pure 50 RGX Body Spray and a condom line called Magic Stick Condoms
*50 Cent has signed a multi-year deal with Steiner Sports to sell his memorabilia.
*The guy has published 3 books- 1 of which is a best seller.
Do I like em- Hell I dont even know him. I can say his business acumen over the past 5 years is one to admire.
