50 Cent Net Worth
50 Cent’s net worth is easily one of the most searched for and debated figures in the entertainment industry. Ever since he burst onto the scene with his debut album Get Rich or Die Trying, 50 has been launched into the stratosphere of richest rappers. His three studio albums alone have sold over 21 million units. In his relatively short time in the spotlight 50 founded label G-Unit records, launched G-Unit clothing company, and has even acted in several movies with legends like Al Pacino and Robert Deniro.
50 Cent’s most brilliant financial investment came when he negotiated a minority stake in Vitamin Water in return for acting as a celebrity spokesman and lending his name for the “Formula 50″ drink. When The Coca Cola Company acquired Vitamin Water from Glaceau for $4.1 billion. 50’s share of that was initially reported as 10% which would have been $410 million. This number was widely dismissed by investment bankers familiar with the deal. Most people agree that 50’s take on the deal was closer to $100-$150 million which after taxes was probably more like $65-$100 million. If you combine this windfall with record sales, concert sales, clothing, merchandise, and acting it is safe to assume 50 Cent’s networth is $150 million and growing fast. Enough to give Dr Dre’s net worth and Eminem’s net worth a run for their money!
