You looked up the Beats wiki, saw the sans-serif I, and thought he spelled his last name with a lowercase L. Then you proceeded to spell it with a capital L. All to look smart for a random crowd

Damn you mean a former crack dealer now has almost 1/4 of my net worth?

This ruined my day.

Not bad for a drug-dealer who has attempted murder twice, and is married to a tranny.

Rappers are a cancer on society. They make young black kids think they can be uneducated criminals and still magically become rich.

Meh, guy from St.Louis, who is an owner of World Wide Technologies whizzes all over both.

A black man who didn't have to push shitty alcohol or headphines to make his billions.

quote:

With a net worth of $3 billion, David Steward ranks as no. 745 on Forbes’ list of global billionaires.

In 1990, Steward invested $250,000 that he earned from two auditing ventures to launch World Wide Technology (WWT), an IT provider that offers hardware and software products and services to large public and private customers in various sectors.

Its clients include Citi, Verizon, and the U.S. government. Last year, WWT earned $11.2 billion in sales and was ranked as no. 1 on the BE100s — BLACK ENTERPRISE’s annual list of top black-owned companies in the nation. The 67-year-old business tycoon also graced the cover of BLACK ENTERPRISE in June 2001.

This is closer to the real number. The rest is somebody's pie in the sky estimate. If he had to liquidate it wouldn't 've worth anywhere near a billion.

Not surprised. He's a smart guy, but people on here will write it off as bullshite because he's just another black guy making hip-hop to them.

Jealousy is a bitch.




that's quite a large chip on your shoulder. no other reason for such a projection as the first response to this thread.

Most of that is pretty liquid.

The assets that he'd have trouble unloading would be Roc and maybe Tidal.
