jay has more than enough finances to maintain the lifestyle he's accustom to.

Yall ##!$*% are lame. %** cares about Ol Man Jigga's net worth or his income status? Unless he broke I don't see what's the point.

you would be embarrassed to know how absolutely wrong you are in this matter. this so-called "story" you heard is exactly that.

let's leave it at that before trying to pass it off with some sort of psuedo-validity.

and jay's net worth is valued at WELL OVER $150 million.

think half-a-billi.
 
o really? enlighten me then ... i mean so far youve told me i was wrong after i read an article stating what i said, and then you said forbes was wrong listinghim at 150 mil ... who are you mr roc avy?
 
Damn...so cats is lying on bank accounts? Not a good look. 50 was pumpin' that 400 mil. vitamin water move heavy...where's it at?

Like do I REALLY need to know how much Kudi got when he signed?

Not really hating but kinda confused in general.

Isnt it a recession, Billion dollar corporations who have had $$$$$$$$$ for long over 50 yrs are leaking money like Niagra Falls , what would make Jay Zimmune?

Title should be "wait, who isnt losing money"
 
^^^ Bingo. Remember when Gates was worth over $100 Billion? Look at him now. Bottom line is that all those stock prices were waaaay over inflated.

Not talking about this list specifically but just the dealings and wealth of people in rap MUSIC. Like if Jay get 100 mil...good for him, he loseit...thats *!+%%% up, not only either way it aint none of our business but aint none of our lives changed over it....like I said maybe its just me at apersonal point in my life with music but I feel this #%+# just dont concern me. Dudes worried way too much about the business end of things.

this information will go unsourced. not because of its lack of validity, but because of gag orders being placed on the deal by mr. adelson and the powers thatbe at the sands group.

jay spent $20 million (of his OWN capital) to fund the construction of the club at the venetian hotel. the palazza BOUGHT BACK the space for over $80 million.simple arithmetic will reveal that jay raked in a 400% return on his investment in the desert.

and hybrid nation is reporting false inaccuracies about jay's net worth if they are valuing it at $150 million. the man was reported to have pocketed $82million (AFTER TAXES) in 2008 alone; let's not be silly.

like i said before, if you are interested in the value of shawn carter's net worth, think half-a-billi.

he sold rocawear at 200M and rocafella for like 10M (give/take)
after taxes and his investors money , i thinks that the majority of the that 82M

+ his previous earnings

i still don't see half a billion overall though

i feel extra broke for even arguing about it

Not really..... Tre I see what your saying, but remember you don't have to be a wall st type to be tied up in investments ETC. Look at all the people thatlost money with madoff I mean some folks lost everything they had with the guy. So it wouldn't be surprising for Jay to have a money manager whoseportfolio did't do well and he took a hit would it? I mean really it's happening to everyone these days....Now I don't know if he really took thisbig a hit or not, but then again I don't really care either cause I'm not seeing any bread.
 
naw your absolutely right - i prob worded it wrong- what i mean is to lose that substantial amount of net worth in a year you would have to have most of yourfunds tied up into something that went wrong..so when i say a wall st cat i mean these execs of big corps who are worth XX but its really tied up in companystock or whatever then the company goes bad and they are worth nada-

there were several reports of big numbers that he pulled IN over the last year so the number doesnt make sense...

im sure he along with anybody else with his type of bread lost $ on investments...im also positive that is he had 400+ million tied up into something that heLOST in the last year there would be plenty more reports and articles about it- hell every time scott storch is late on his credit card payment theres aarticle on allhiphop
