Big Money

It seems that Jay-Z made a large bank deposit recently when he sold his Rocawear clothing line for over 200 million dollars. Theoretically, his great-grandchildren will never have to lift a finger. It's bad enough that the man was already worth nine figures but now his worth is just ridiculous. The crazy thing is that he still has money coming in by the boatload from Rocafella Records, Armadale Vodka, President of DefJam Records, and don't forget that he owns a share of the New Jersey Nets. If he is not the epitome of maximizing your earning power, then I don't know who is. Not bad for a guy who really just came on the national scene in maybe 1994. Pretty soon, entertainers will probably rule the Forbes 500 it seems like. Damn I wish I could rap.
