RUMOR: 50 CENT HAD MONEY INVESTED WITH BERNIE MADOFF????


 







January 23, 2009. MediaTakeOut.com just caught wind of an interesting rumor. MediaTakeOut.com just caught wind that rapper 50 Cent may have invested in a fund that invested heavily with Bernie Madoff.

According to a MediaTakeOut.com snitch claiming to be in the know, 50 put a hefty 7 figure amount in a hedge fund. And the fund, in turn invested some of the money it raised into one of Madoff's funds.

But things could have been worse for the popular rapper. The snitch explained to MediaTakeOut.com, "Luckily [the fund] disn't invest all its money with Madoff, or 50 would be in even worse shape."

    We'll know soon if he lost all his money because if he did he's gonna put a cap in Madoff's white ass.

    I seriously doubt it because Bernie Madoff only dealt with the well-well to do,ultra wealthy high siddity,old money Families,and the jewish community and he only ran in those esoteric circles.'He wouldn't be caught in the same sentence with the likes of someone like Fif if you get my drift...Ya feel me?"

    @ Stefanie...oh ok

    I'm sure he's not the only celebrity to lose money if he did. A lot of them talk about investments. I saw on the news a few weeks agos that Jayz is having a hard time with his hotel deal.

    If 50 said that, then I respect him for being honest about it. A lot of people wouldnt come out and admit that to the public. Especially these gold tooth wearing rappers that want the public to believe they are ballin 24/7 like their life is beautiful and sh@t

    VicSage: Madoff was about his money, there are a lot of white people who didn't have HALF as much money that 50 cent has, and they lost IT ALL, so please RESEARCH before you make such a statement. A crook doesn't care about how much money you have as long as they can figure out a way to take it from you. Madoff STOLE from EVERYONE, 50 cent is considered well to do, so what are you talking about, what kills me is that white people TOUT themselves as EXPERTS in every field, but NONONE had enough common sense to REALLY investigate this man--once I saw that he wasn't offereing the info via the internet, I would've been onto the scheme. Also, never trust someone who's on the smae board that regulates what their company does-that should've been a NO-BRAINER for the ultra rich, ultra-stupid, and now ultra-BROKE elitists! The most I would give to a REPUTABLE company is $500,000, and that's a BIG MAYBE.

    not being racist, but you got to be very careful with some of these white guys you invest your money with. they have a track record of scamming and committing white collar crimes. I'm not saying that all of them do it, there may be some black who are scammers but we only here about the white ones. 50 needs to slow down a little with all of this investing. being a little too greedy may be his down fall. sometimes something that sounds great, isn't.
     

    StBernard
    How some of ya'll going to say the man was crazy for investing with a well known investor. No one, not even the FEDS saw this coming from BERNIE MADOFF so I can't blame 50!

    So if you calling the man crazy for trying to make more money, then ya'll the ones crazy. Lets not forget that record sells is not what got 50 wealthy, it was his smart investments.

    Just so happen that this investor beat everybody out of 50+billon.....

    MTO shut the fluck up.

    we know 9 outta 10 stories about 50 cent on MTO are straight up lies.and all end up being revealed as untrue.kinda like when your snitches sweared him and ciara was gonna come out as a couple at the video music awards.....it never happend.dude wasnt even there.LMAO.or when ya'll said his movie director didnt want him promoting the movie and then we seen him on the red carpet with the rest of the cast.should i keep going?

    plus if this was true it would've been on the news right along with kevin bacon.

    Vicsage...If you really work where you claim you do, you would know that people invested in Bernie Madoff who NEVER came in contact with him.

    He had private firms and hedge funds investing him where he would know maybe one to two people at the very top. Many people who invested with him never even met him...They knew people who knew people.

    With all the Old Jewish money in the Record Industry, you would have to be CRAZY or STUPID to think that he could not get in those circles.

    Its all good, Your the not first idiot to claim they work for a specific company when they are on MTO all day and they speak like an amateur about the supposed "field" they work in .

    Just know there are actual people who know about these subjects and will call you out when you talk nonsense...

    As far as lames go, the only lame is someone pretending to be what they are not. If your rich from drug dealing thats great, but we all know its not from working in the finance industry.

    That is "BANK TALK"...

    What MOST people don't realize is that the white boys sit around in those bars in the Wall Street area and laugh about the clients that they swindle. At least they did about tweleve years ago when I worked down there--it was NAUSEATING. I'm not talking out of the side of my neck about the arrogance and lack of respect for the downtrodden, I've seen it TIME AND TIME AGAIN!

    AND some of the so-called "BROTHAS" that manage to get in on Wall Street, are the same way.

    I'm super late replying to this post, but I had to LMAO @ Vic Sage. Dude, 50 is worth more than a lot of the white investors who Bernie Madoff swindled money from. A Ponzi scheme has no race and no color other than green and that would be "how much green do you have?" There were people who were BEGGING Bernie Madoff to take their money and he refused them. If 50 "invested" 7 figures in that Ponzi scheme and lost it, he's hardly broke.

    50 owned 10% of Glaceau. When Glaceau sold Vitamin Water, Coca Cola bought the company for $4.2 BILLION. 10% of that is $420 million. If you deduct 50% of that as payment for taxes, Fif was left with $210 million, not including money from his clothing line, shoe line, mixtapes, record deal, touring, television shows, movies and whatever other licensing deals he has. Dude is worth close to half-a-mill if he's not there already. 50 has Arab money, so where the hell would 7 figures break him?

    There are folks who "invested" over $1 billion with Madoff and they are the ones who are broke. The first rule of investments is DO NOT INVEST ANYTHING YOU CANNOT AFFORD TO LOSE and I'm sure you know that.

    Anyone who had money in hedge funds, stocks, real estate or anything that is a common investment lost money because nothing is worth today what it was six months or a year ago. As I stated months ago before the official recession announcement was made, the people who have it the easiest right now are the ones who have no money, no property, no investments and no real financial responsibilities. You can't lose what you never had.

    Best wishes to 50, middle finger to all of the haters. Be careful what you project onto others, because when you come up, you may come down just as quickly because of your negative comments and energy that you pitched to folks who were on top when your ass was on th bottom.

    Deuces.
