I doubt P Diddy has the money. Even Magic Johnson, a pretty astute businessman could only afford a partial interest in the Dodgers.

I just don't see anyone in the music business able to make the kind of cash needed given how the music business has changed. Artists don't sell as many records as they used to due the digital music revolution and how artists don't need record companies like they used to with digital music.

P. Diddy can't even count on royalties since he samples so much. He doesn't even own 100 percent of his biggest hits.

Maybe if P Diddy gets lucky with investments out of the music industry.

He didn't make his money off his CDs.

Pretty sure Diddy would kill himself if he woke up with Magic's bank account.

The Dodgers sold for over $2 billion, in a cash transaction.
