And if all those people are investors then they all made money.
Thats what its called investing. If 50 bought 10% of the company in stock back in 04 when the brand was not very well known, now they sold it for 4 billion you best believe he jusyt made hella bank.
all the celebs you named endorse the product, 50 Cent OWNS part of the product. there's a difference between those people having some stock in the company, probably not even claiming .10% of it, and 50 Cent owning 10% of the company. lol @ yall n*ggas being in denial. bob johnson owns the bobcats, nelly owns the bobcats. the difference is, nelly owns not even a full 1% of the team, bob johnson owns most of it. same deal with jay-z and the nets, these people really just bring these guys in to endorse, them giving them these small fractions of a piece of the company is just the way they placate them. there's levels of ownership. this is why 50 has his own personal flavor promotes it in his videos and interviews, etc...

"not only do they all drink vitaminwater – they are investors in the company as well. grammy-winning megastar kelly clarkson and hip hop entrepreneur 50 cent are both addicted to the product because it works so well for them and it’s changed their lives.because of this, they both became investors in the company."
so what?? that jus means that kelly clarkson and 50 are millionaires now...
the fukk is wrong with you hatas, go make your own money quite hatin on a rich black man. He should inspire you to invest not to hate...

those other celebs are not even considered minority owners though, they're called "investors" because they're given a fraction of the rights when they agree to endorse the product. 50 Cent, on the other hand, actually invested millions of dollars into the product and is an official minority owner. this is why you dont see kelly clarkson and allen iverson and all these people speaking on Glaceau every chance they get like 50 Cent does. check the new york times, they covered this for ya.

Yall have a right to not like 50's music thats your opinion but this is some real gay **** for yall to be arguing about his investments and he dont own 10% of vitamin water.
Dude has been claiming vitamin water for 3 years and now its killin yall to see the man done made some serious cash.
Back in 04 vitamin water was nowhere to be found nowadays that **** is in every store you go to. So yall need to quit hating and give the man his props for making a smart investment.

Why does it matter anyway? SMH at brothers and sisters only caring about investments and corporate finances only when a rapper is involved. Get your OWN money right before you devote so much energy to someone else's. And no, this isn't talking about the threadstarter, just all these people that have been making 40 million threads about 50's money.

05-27-07, 01:12 PM
lol @ people saying 50 didn't make a lot of money.
i don't like 50's music, but any real mother ****er on here will give 50 props for making a smooth 400 mil. ITS 400 MIL! He made off of one deal what most of us on here will never make in our lives combined. Put your hate aside and recognize a businessman making it big outside of the rap game.

Perhaps rapper 50 Cent really is going to get rich or die tryin'. The Queens-bred recording artist decided to promote his favorite drink by buying a lot of it.
Along with designing a vitaminwater flavor called formula 50, the rapper bought into the Whitestone-based company that produces his favorite drink.
-------------------------------------------------------
"It's really not an endorsement it's a partnership," vitaminwater spokeswoman Lara Bandler said. "He wanted to partner with the company. It's a very untraditional situation."
-------------------------------------------------------
For the Whitestone company that prides itself on innovation and is known for its conversational labels, the joint venture with a Queens rapper is a unique way to grow.
"Neither of us wanted to get into an endorsement," Bandler said. "We were able to come up with really creative ways to partner with him."

nah ya slow, 50 said he owned 10% awhile ago, but who would really care back then, cause what the hell is vitmain water that sh*t ain't never going to blow up, but it did, and now it paid off...
Yea celebs got their own drinks, but they didn't go ahead and invest into the company, two totally different things

no...they are not millionairs of of vitamin water if 50 made 400 mill of only owning 10% of the company that means all of the celbrities mention shoul dof made the news also.truth be told this is just something to keep your eyes away from the fact that 50 doesnt have a buzz he popularity is fading is music isnt that good and it gives people a reason to listen to straight to the bank..its hogwash nothing but a escuse just think if u made 400 mil
why pull your album back your album cant flop u gfot to much money to let it flop u can drop videos for every song payola u can schedule a crazy world tour all of that..the truth is 50 is smarter thanhis fans he knows a 50 cent fan wil belive ne thing and yall did.
just think how the ****is jigga still way ricker than 50 on the forbes list if 50 just made 400 mil dollars it didnt happen forbes knows everything look it up

i have'nt seen any official numbers of how much he own but some u are delusional to think he just some small time endorser of the shyt. 50 mentioned the damn water more than his own sneakers and clothes with the water being in his videos since 2004 so he must had a nice stake to promote it so viciously.
basically 50 won weither its 40 or 400 mil to be getting dough from a venture that isnt his main source of income,rap

people in the hood have no exposure to investments and corporate finances so there is no reason for them to talk about it, thanks to 50 a lot of people have finally been exposed to it and thats a good thing
im glad to see people talking about things like this, rap money is chump change compared to other industries
