50 Cent on Wall Street Journal (Video)
People don’t give 50 enough credit for how smart this guy really is. It’s bigger than just trying to become a billionaire & not having some type of affect on your community. This was a great interview largely because it’s evident that 50 is an artist that makes most of his own decisions & is clear about what his goals are unlike most of these so called mega rich artists who have someone doing all the thinking for them. What you usually have are these artists endorsing products they don’t even believe in or are detrimental to the communities they serve. Although it would be nice to become a billionaire, that doesn’t bring a person to true happiness.
