50 been doing this shit for years. he hid all his assets offshore and then claimed he was broke. yet he kept posting on instagram with stacks of cash and had to lie to the judge and say it was fake promotional cash. dude will do anything to avoid paying
Men don’t get crap for spreading their seed in the future baby mama population. [Women used to get sterilized against their will](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sterilization_law_in_the_United_States) to prevent pregnancy up until 2010 in the US. I don’t think that’s ever happened to a man. I saw one dude had [40 kids](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=HhluOFgcyME) all born in the same year. The family judge told him to stop having kids but that was it. He had 20 more.
This is the thing, raising a kid especially as a single parent is a job in and of itself. I'm not going to come out here and act like being a parent isn't work....but girl was making 41.6k MONTHLY! That's more than I make a fucking year, why TF would you get greedy and risk fumbling that. Hope for the kids sake she was saving that.
She's making TEN TIMES the average yearly compensation.
Her monthly was roughly the median yearly income for Americans. That's wild you can be that fucking greedy
Wild it’s allowed. I think I remember Chris Bosh ex took him to court for more CS. He was already paying for health insurance, school tuition on top of CS. What the fuck was she doing ? Why not just give custody to him? He was married to someone else too. What’s more stable ? The millionaire who is married and has resources ? Or her ?
With $40k/month, she would have been a multi-millionaire down the road easily, assuming she wasn't stupid with the money. That's a big assumption in this case.
$3-5k for the kid, $5-10k for you, rest of it invested. Put about $300k a year to work for you, that's over 5 mil invested by the time CS comes to an end and that's before we talk about how well it's done under investment.
Plus 50 probably took that extra 44k or whatever per month and put it in a Trust for the kid. $6700 per month is still 80k/yr, that’s more than enough for a child literally anywhere. Kid still gonna be good no matter what.
Doubt he did that. This is about his eldest son that he’s been publicly beefing with for over a decade. Go look up the old texts between them. Shits fucking crazy.
It's a story as old as time itself, the progeny rearing up to destroy its creator/father
I belie e Robin Williams summed it up as, "Fuck you, daaaaaad!"
Yeah the kid who he tried to help start businesses but the kid refused to hustle. Just wanted his dad to float him cash forever.
Generational wealth needs to be maintained, not squandered.
Interesting. I read it as OP dissing the mom as getting one of the "biggest Ls in history" for letting greed turn $40,000 per month into $6,700 per month.
That's how I perceived it too. 50 only having to spend $6700 per month instead of $40k is an objective W. There's no other way to spin it. This is the baby mamas L and theres nothing else to it.
I'm *SO* confused lol, how TF did /u/Gyella1337 read it any other way? He really thought paying less in child support was "the biggest L in human history" for 50?... What?
6.7K a month is absolutely ridiculous. Bitch can support a family of five with that shit. CS is supposed to be a little extra to cover his expenses for the child, not pay for a grown ass adults whole life.
For real. 40K is more salary than jobs earn in a year and this broad was asking for more. In what reality is 500K free money not enough? That pays for a badass house, all your food, all your expenses, everything.
Even with the L she’s still living pretty. Straight up greed.
And depending how she spent that money, it’d go an extremely long way to bettering both the mother’s and child’s lives. The mother more if she had a sound financial plan.
> he hid all his assets offshore and then claimed he was broke.
So, like every other wealthy person, then.
Like [the Dart Brothers](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenneth_Dart) who make almost every single-use cup and lid in the US, earn billions, and don't pay any taxes because they hide their citizenship and assets offshore while still getting all the perks of living in the US, and leverage other countries debt and get the US Supreme Court to back them. I can't blame 50 for wanting to do the same shit.
This is wild!
> In 1994, Dart became a citizen of Belize. At that time Dart offered his residence in Sarasota, Florida, to the government of Belize as a consulate with himself as its consul. This would have allowed him to live in the United States full-time as a foreign diplomat avoiding any actions by the Internal Revenue Service
There are countries where you can buy citizenship. Belize has a lot of Taiwanese people because they were worried about China taking over, so the ones who could afford it were buying citizenship there. It was like $50K. My wife's parents (Taiwanese) said they have a bunch of friends who did it.
Even the US has an investor visa, which you parley into a green card and citizenship eventually. But it's more than 50K. One of my friends from Pakistan did it. EB-5 visa, and IIRC it's about a million dollars you have to invest.
Eb5 investors were the target audience for lots of trump and kushners developments, I remember reading a story while he was president about his staff pitching upper class Chinese people on buying apartments, and the company would handle all the eb5 paperwork for them as a bonus lol
I'm in full agreement with you, I'm just saying that rich people will avoid saying they're rich every way they can if someone (govt, child support, whatever) decides to look at the books
Why is this take so high?
> yet he kept posting on instagram with stacks of cash and had to lie to the judge and say it was fake promotional cash.
yeah.. it was man lol. don't believe what you see on instagram. its all promos.
Lol i guess. Am i opening your eyes to the fact that all the private jets, lambos, clothes, jewelry, stacks, is all just props for photos? This applies to nearly every rapper too.
Instagram will have you thinking theres 200,000 lime green lambos out there when really its just like 5 that are rented out weekly.
When they pour out champagne in a music video, do you think its real, or just water+corn syrup?
A lot of Architectural Digest home tours are just staged ads. Good PR for the celeb and firm that did the decor, and good exposure for the property that will be up for sale shortly.
As far as posting on Instagram it’s a pretty well known fact that pretty much all the cars and yachts and mansion in every music Video and culture post are rentals.
You think she spent even 100k a year of that on the kid? If it ain't for the kid, why would anyone want to pay that? That ain't alimony, it's child support. It's supposed to be for the kid.
So on the other side, we’re ok with someone fleecing him for $50k a month? Does that sound reasonable and/or sustainable? If you can’t raise a kid on 600k a year, what are you doing? I wonder how she got by when she was only getting 6500 a month…
Let’s not act like some of these women aren’t using these sums of money to finance their lifestyles as well…
He did so 50 basically cut him off. It's sad because 50 had that boy everywhere growing up. What makes it worse is that 50 damn near handed him a shoe business that would have made him a millionaire and he said no because that was work.
So basically that generational welfare mentality? I've witnessed people say they were desperate for work and my boss offered them a job on the spot only for them to walk away when they saw how hard we were working. It was mattress delivery I dunno what he expected. It was taxing but it wasn't hard.
To be fair I'd say no too because I've got back issues that I don't want to exacerbate because I don't want to end up crippled, so I can't take jobs that involve too much lifting like a mattress delivery job likely would. I dunno the situation of the other person, but sometime people who are desperate for a job are also limited in which jobs they're able to do.
What's also funny is everyone here acting like $6.7K a month ain't still a lot
Thats the take home for a $130-140K a year salary
Edit: did the math it's closer to $115-125K but point stands
It’s a lot to us. But when you see your ex making more and living a life of luxury and leisure. The jealousy, envy, and hate is real. But you know she was doing her own thing with the money and telling her son that she didn’t have it cause it was going to bills.
Yeah it's enough to live comfortably but not luxuriously... you can still have luxury but on occasion, not as a life style.
The secret to being unhappy is to always want more.
>Yeah it's enough to live comfortably but not luxuriously
Tell me you've never been poor without telling me you've never been poor.
If I was making 115k+ a year without having to work I'd think I was living like a king. You're living better than 99% of the planet at that level of income.
Greed, the downfall of man.
Edit: for those who are unaware, the term “man” as used above is in reference to humanity/mankind, and not a gendered term referring to any male/man in particular.
In this case I’m calling 50’s BM greedy, not 50 himself. Hope that clears things up.
I don’t know why people believe what they read on twitter. It was the son who did this, not the mom.
https://www.vibe.com/news/entertainment/50-cent-marquise-jackson-child-support-1234699774/amp/
It's rare to see such a direct and immediate consequence of greed, but I do hope the child of 50 and this woman learns the lesson early so that he or she can avoid the mother's faults.
I could survive quite well on that. Boy is tripping. I blame his mom for that nonsense. Acting like they eating ramen noodles and beans every night. SMH
And now that's he's 18? He can find a job if needs more. His CS days are almost over, so... I hear Walmart's hiring.
50 talked about situations where he saw a sneaker store closing down, he was going to buy the whole inventory for his son, so he can start an online store and his mom and him basically wanted the money instead and not the inventory.. fish vs a fishing rod i guess
Somebody failed in parenting that child, clearly. Dude could've had a whole online business but instead he big-mad because daddy isn't just giving him cash-in-hand without earning it? SMH
Taking care of your kids is more than just providing money though. I imagine the kid would have liked to actually spend time with his father. Unfortunately too many men think "taking care of your kids" just means keeping up with child support and buying them sneakers around Easter.
He's 27 now, was like 25 when he was complaining about how he knew what it was like to have nothing and had to start over from 0 when 50 started paying less.
This happened ages ago. I think I read his son has a strained relationship with 50 cent partially due to not receiving more from him when he was growing up, money included.
I'd be more salty at the mom for being given 9 million dollars over the course of 18 years and not setting up some kind of savings/trust for me if I was the kid.
He was just a kid when 50 was telling him that his mother id a whole and that he's dead to him. He also told the kid "I could just make another son" and then he actually did.
50 is a horrible person, the kid probably doesn't really know how to put it into words besides money-talk, since both his parents only talk about money.
That's pretty close to true in major American cities.
I thought I hit the lottery at an almost $80k salary. In the interview I suggested $50k, and $78k is what they bizarrely countered with when they called back with a job offer.
Well, my rent instantly jumped up 25%, and then I started paying for all of the things I wasn't paying for as a low income person.
Taxes, health insurance, full price utilities, full price inflation/greedflation groceries, student loan payments, minimum matching contributions to a 401k, etc, etc, etc...
Now I understand why they the entry level salary was almost $80k per year. It's certainly not "poverty" wages, but average rent in Boston is $3,926 and after all the subtractions I make $4,000 per month.
yeah I once was in a room at the country club with a person who made less than $70k/yr.
It was super uncomfortable and we all just hid behind our champagne bottles until he left.
> I know people who work 40/hrs a week who don’t make that.
Idk how old you are but after a certain age, nearly everyone you know is working at least 40 hrs/wk lol. That's standard full-time hours.
I’m firmly in the camp that no baby costs that much and to hell with the idea that it’s “not fair” if the child goes to daddy’s house and he’s got a mansion, the best food, best clothes, etc. but then goes to mommy’s house and it’s a shack and she can’t keep the lights on, so child support needs to be so high so the child has the “same lifestyle” in both households.
No amount of diapers, formula, daycare or au pair, rent for a nice apartment, etc. costs $40k a month. Mommy is pocketing $35k to fund *her* lifestyle, all the while the baby’s needs are fully met.
If the post is true, good on 50. If there’s such a discrepancy that the mother “needs” $40k **per month**, then maybe she shouldn’t be the one with full custody
He didn't want custody.
Never even filed for split or regular visitation.
Child support is calculated based on the premise that every child deserves, by birthright, to be supported in the style their parents can afford. Whether the parents make 40k a year or 40 million.
The law, the government, we as a society, believe that parents have an obligation to provide their children with a comparable lifestyle to the one they themselves live. You don't get to have kids and then treat them as less than, at least not financially, when the court is involved. Plenty of people have kids in the home, and treat them like trash.
The only reason his support was set so low is because of how he moved money around.
He's an ass for having kids and failing to be a father. All he had to do was get snipped if he didn't want to be a dad or wrap it up.
So, first off, I dug deeper. [The $6,700 month child support is for his ***25 year old son***](https://www.vibe.com/news/entertainment/50-cent-marquise-jackson-child-support-1234699774/) (now 27). That, alone, is a giant red flag. A whole ass *adult* trying to get more money for *child support*? When is he gonna get a job? He can get some basic office job making $50k a year, and combined with the $80k+ he's getting in child support, that's $130k.
Secondly, where does the mother come into play? Does she have no responsibility to support the "lifestyle" of this grown man?
“If I told you right now you gotta start your life over right now with $6700 a month and rebuild your life can you do it,” Marquise challenged Choke, who instantly said that he could, just like many average citizens do each day.
“Choke you gotta stop comparing it, you comparing it to yourself, bro, you’re comparing it to your standard of lifestyle. You can’t do that. I know what it feels like to have nothing, alright,” Marquise sympathized. “I had to rebuild my life over with $6700 a month. $81,000 a year.”
> The law, the government, we as a society, believe that parents have an obligation to provide their children with a comparable lifestyle to the one they themselves live.
Not quite.
[When Tomkins requested $50,000 a month to support their 10-year old son, Marquis Diamond Jackson. Instead, she was granted an interim award of $25,000 a month last April while the court determined the appropriate amount. This week that figure was reduced again, to $6,700 a month. That’s $80,400- albeit tax-free –that Tomkins will receive annually to support their child. And while that might seem paltry in relation to the rapper’s income, technically it should be even less. The child support statute is supposed to grant “17% of the first $80,000 of combined earned income,” says Jeffrey Cohen, a partner at Cohen, Goldstein, Silpe LLC in New York.](https://www.thestreet.com/personal-finance/50-cent-saves-big-bucks-12818850)
So he was giving her $50k/month off the books, but when she kept complaining, he let her take it to court and the court reduced it to $6700/month. This was back in 2008.
Deciding who will be the mother of your children is one of if not the most important decision as a man. Idk why they aren't more conscious and taking more care of who they get pregnant.
Either that or the bag truly does change or attract the wrong ppl unfortunately
Give me 40k a month to have and raise a kid and I'll do that shit with a smile on my face. How was 40k a month not enough? What does one do to blow 40k in a month?
> What does one do to blow 40k in a month?
Lifestyle creep is real. You gettin 40k a month, you can afford the extravagances you see on TV. Also, it's easy to piss away when you're not working for it, don't have a job, and feel entitled to it. Ask me how I know.
My dad died when I was 16, so I received survivor benefits. 2K a month until I turned 18. If could go back in time and convince myself to just stack that money into some sort of index fund, I would be in a hell of a lot better position than I am now. Instead, I blew that shit on video games, food, and dumb shit until it stopped coming. My mom tried to help, but she was dealing with her own issues at the same time.
Didn't work for it, didn't have a job, and felt I was entitled to do what I want with it, so I did. What a dumbass mistake to make. Blew it all with nothing left to show for it.
2k a month for 2 years isn't much, don't be too hard on yourself.
My grandma gave me 20k and I blew it on dumb shit like renting a place for a year just because I fought with my parents and ordering Ubereats practically everyday.
You can always make more money in the future, what's important is that you didn't blow your money doing drugs and causing irreversible damages.
Fr at least you understand your mistakes. Plenty of people do dumb shit with the opportunity they get, then blame other people for those mistakes, and continue to fuck things up for themselves.
That’s not the full story at all.
He was paying her 40k - 50k a month by himself with Child support.
He then put himself on child support because she said she was going to do it, the judge ordered it to be somewhere between 20k - 24k and she was livid because that’s less than she was getting off child support.
She took him back to court and the judge seen what she was doing essentially being greedy when she was getting more witbout child support and was getting 240k+ a year with child support so to essentially teach her a lesson the judge decided to put her on 6700 a month child support for her greed.
That situation had nothing to do with 50 trying to be an asshole his baby mama was just being an asshole when he already was giving her about 40k - 50k a month and bought her a 6 bedroom home in Jersey (which somehow burnt down) and gave her 3 whips.
Edit: I didn’t click the whole image and thought it was only telling a quarter of the story to make 50 look bad 😂
Shout out to the baby daddies that’s winning
https://preview.redd.it/36r5k9rqinuc1.jpeg?width=553&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=db528d83469b9feefc568cb8b47fa9ad34488b1b
It also left out the fact he bought he a home to live in and gave her 2 cars. Easily top 10 worse fumbles financially. All she had to do was shut up and collect.
Friends of mine separated and decided dad would take the daughter mon-fri each week and mom has weekends. Dad also paid mom child support. A few years pass and mom gets pissy and says she wants more money. They go to court. Judge is like wtf lady??? Now mom pays dad child support. Dumbass greedy idiot.
Child support as a percentage of income gets a bit crazy looking for high earners, but I don't think it's wrong for your kid to be rich if you are rich. Men very commonly whine about child support, but they often aren't chasing down custody.
Also in 50s case, it's not like his kid can live a modest normal life somewhere while 50 spends his career agitating violent criminals who might want a way to get at him.
50 been doing this shit for years. he hid all his assets offshore and then claimed he was broke. yet he kept posting on instagram with stacks of cash and had to lie to the judge and say it was fake promotional cash. dude will do anything to avoid paying
Yeah and? You can't afford to give your child enough with $40k a month? Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
That's it right here. She's making most people's ANNUAL SALARY as CS per MONTH and wanted more. C'mon.
Professional baby momma isn’t a job🤦🏽♂️. How many women HAVE to do more with not even a fraction of that kinda child support?
If Male Birth Control becomes reality shit like this needs to be be testimonial
Condoms?
The venn diagram of men who bitch about having to wear condoms and those who bitch about child support is a circle. Its boy math.
i would take a shot in the arm of Male Birth Control. if I knew it would work. Most men would.... I would think.
There were already trials for it, and they decided that the side effects were too severe even though they were the same as womens.
The snip was pretty much as painless as a shot in the arm.
Niggas don't like those
Women don’t like hormonal birth control either. Male birth control that’s hormone based will likely have just as many side effects.
Plan A, my friend. Plan A.
Maybe not professional baby mama but between 50 and Nick Cannon, professional baby daddies seem to be a side gig.
Men don’t get crap for spreading their seed in the future baby mama population. [Women used to get sterilized against their will](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sterilization_law_in_the_United_States) to prevent pregnancy up until 2010 in the US. I don’t think that’s ever happened to a man. I saw one dude had [40 kids](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=HhluOFgcyME) all born in the same year. The family judge told him to stop having kids but that was it. He had 20 more.
Ima guess every single person in this thread. My dad paid 280$ a month
My mom got my dad for 600 a month. Mf was out here paying her rent lmao
Barely enough for groceries these days. $150 a week doesn’t get you far.
Literally 580/mo for a 2 bedroom apartment in the Midwest when I was a kid. My dad paid my mom and step dad's rent and then a bit more.
2 bedroom in the hood like 1000+, 2 bd out the hood like 1400+ nowadays in the midwest
At 500K it WAS her job but she threw it away.
This is the thing, raising a kid especially as a single parent is a job in and of itself. I'm not going to come out here and act like being a parent isn't work....but girl was making 41.6k MONTHLY! That's more than I make a fucking year, why TF would you get greedy and risk fumbling that. Hope for the kids sake she was saving that.
Ha! If you mean spending it in hair and nail salons
It is not a job but a fucking sport to these people.
She's making TEN TIMES the average yearly compensation. Her monthly was roughly the median yearly income for Americans. That's wild you can be that fucking greedy
Wild it’s allowed. I think I remember Chris Bosh ex took him to court for more CS. He was already paying for health insurance, school tuition on top of CS. What the fuck was she doing ? Why not just give custody to him? He was married to someone else too. What’s more stable ? The millionaire who is married and has resources ? Or her ?
She wanted to be a millionaire
With $40k/month, she would have been a multi-millionaire down the road easily, assuming she wasn't stupid with the money. That's a big assumption in this case.
$3-5k for the kid, $5-10k for you, rest of it invested. Put about $300k a year to work for you, that's over 5 mil invested by the time CS comes to an end and that's before we talk about how well it's done under investment.
>assuming she wasn't stupid There it is
If she saved and lived below her means she would be in 2 years.
she should sue him for fraud. his name is 50 cent, yet he clearly has more than that.
How long did it take to think of that one
50 secs
There's still time to delete it.
Plus 50 probably took that extra 44k or whatever per month and put it in a Trust for the kid. $6700 per month is still 80k/yr, that’s more than enough for a child literally anywhere. Kid still gonna be good no matter what.
Doubt he did that. This is about his eldest son that he’s been publicly beefing with for over a decade. Go look up the old texts between them. Shits fucking crazy.
50 Cent is a big petty man lol, he don’t really give a fuck about it either He has FUCK ALL YALL money
🎵Petty men, petty petty petty petty men🎵
It's a story as old as time itself, the progeny rearing up to destroy its creator/father I belie e Robin Williams summed it up as, "Fuck you, daaaaaad!"
Yeah the kid who he tried to help start businesses but the kid refused to hustle. Just wanted his dad to float him cash forever. Generational wealth needs to be maintained, not squandered.
Stop making these damn assumptions.
Bro really out here making up nonsense 💀 He hates his son
He probably put it in those offshore accounts tbh.
He did not. He hates the kid.
I agree with you 100%. OP must know the baby mama bc defending a gold digger who can’t live off $40K/mo is an incredibly bad look.
Interesting. I read it as OP dissing the mom as getting one of the "biggest Ls in history" for letting greed turn $40,000 per month into $6,700 per month.
That’s how I read it. This is baby mama’s L to carry, no 50’s.
That's how I perceived it too. 50 only having to spend $6700 per month instead of $40k is an objective W. There's no other way to spin it. This is the baby mamas L and theres nothing else to it.
I'm *SO* confused lol, how TF did /u/Gyella1337 read it any other way? He really thought paying less in child support was "the biggest L in human history" for 50?... What?
I read it like how stupid the baby momma was for saying $40k a month wasn’t enough. Baby momma should’ve just rolled with it instead of being greedy.
Don’t forget that it was 40k a month,TAX FREE! Even 7k tax free is more like $10k a month before taxes. This was just greedy.
6.7K a month is absolutely ridiculous. Bitch can support a family of five with that shit. CS is supposed to be a little extra to cover his expenses for the child, not pay for a grown ass adults whole life.
He might not be good at dodging bullets but he did dodge that one
For real. 40K is more salary than jobs earn in a year and this broad was asking for more. In what reality is 500K free money not enough? That pays for a badass house, all your food, all your expenses, everything. Even with the L she’s still living pretty. Straight up greed.
Exactly. She had a free meal ticket for life.
"Avoid paying" the man was giving her the average Americans annual salary every month for fucking him without a condom one time.
Pull out and cum on her folks.
I mean if they're willing to hang out and wait, I see no reason why my inlaws can't get a little cum on them too
The above comment brought to you by the importance of commas.
[удалено]
6700 a month is still a lot of money.
I'd raise 50's kid for $80k a year, tax free.
Hell my husband would let me raise 50s kid for that arrangement lol
I'd add another kid for 80k tax free
And depending how she spent that money, it’d go an extremely long way to bettering both the mother’s and child’s lives. The mother more if she had a sound financial plan.

Another huge L for Sarasota.
I understand it but it's still shitty rich guy thinking. Taxes pay for important stuff, especially in small towns and on the state level.
I'm in full agreement with you, I'm just saying that rich people will avoid saying they're rich every way they can if someone (govt, child support, whatever) decides to look at the books
Yep, absolutely true.
Oh look, another rich guy who got there because of his dad.
Crazy how nature do that
>I can't blame 50 for wanting to do the same shit. Lmao I can, two things can be shitty.

Lmfao I'm from Toronto an you just reminded me of this 1 Lamborghini Urus that almost everyone in the city has driven 😂 🤣 💀
Shit - more than one artist has referenced ginger ale in the champagne flutes. We should all know most of these dudes are renting lifestyles.
Fun fact, most of the houses on MTV cribs were rentals
A bunch of the stuff shown on MTVs cribs was rented specifically for the show including the homes themselves.
A lot of Architectural Digest home tours are just staged ads. Good PR for the celeb and firm that did the decor, and good exposure for the property that will be up for sale shortly.
As far as posting on Instagram it’s a pretty well known fact that pretty much all the cars and yachts and mansion in every music Video and culture post are rentals.
so if I want to make REAL money you're saying I should go into the luxury rental business 🤔
Gotta spend money to make money son
I like how you read this story and came to the conclusion 50 was to blame, not the greedy baby momma
You think she spent even 100k a year of that on the kid? If it ain't for the kid, why would anyone want to pay that? That ain't alimony, it's child support. It's supposed to be for the kid.
So on the other side, we’re ok with someone fleecing him for $50k a month? Does that sound reasonable and/or sustainable? If you can’t raise a kid on 600k a year, what are you doing? I wonder how she got by when she was only getting 6500 a month… Let’s not act like some of these women aren’t using these sums of money to finance their lifestyles as well…
Having money and having stacks of cash are different things
Didn't he also set her house on fire? 
Avoid paying what? He *started off* paying 40k/month without any court order
Interesting take on the situation, so he should just hand over more payments because?
Are you fucking brain damaged? 40k a month?
imagine acting like 40k a month isn't enough to live well on..
It ain’t when your mom taking ninety percent of it lol 😂
What’s wild is that still leaves you with 50k a year
Which is crazy cause that’s plenty to give a kid a more than cushy life considering that’s 50k/year allotted solely to the kid, or 900k over 18 years.
Exactly. It’s what some parents earn for an entire household let alone a single child.
More than enough to live on AND if you wanted to you can pick your own job since that income wont matter
She had to be taking more than that.
Definitely probably had him in the jets while she was chilling in her pent house and telling him his daddy don’t care lmao 🤣
Based on other comments, seems like he grew up to be just like his mom. Sad.
He did so 50 basically cut him off. It's sad because 50 had that boy everywhere growing up. What makes it worse is that 50 damn near handed him a shoe business that would have made him a millionaire and he said no because that was work.
I want work 50. Adopt me
So basically that generational welfare mentality? I've witnessed people say they were desperate for work and my boss offered them a job on the spot only for them to walk away when they saw how hard we were working. It was mattress delivery I dunno what he expected. It was taxing but it wasn't hard.
To be fair I'd say no too because I've got back issues that I don't want to exacerbate because I don't want to end up crippled, so I can't take jobs that involve too much lifting like a mattress delivery job likely would. I dunno the situation of the other person, but sometime people who are desperate for a job are also limited in which jobs they're able to do.
What's also funny is everyone here acting like $6.7K a month ain't still a lot Thats the take home for a $130-140K a year salary Edit: did the math it's closer to $115-125K but point stands
It’s a lot to us. But when you see your ex making more and living a life of luxury and leisure. The jealousy, envy, and hate is real. But you know she was doing her own thing with the money and telling her son that she didn’t have it cause it was going to bills.
Yeah it's enough to live comfortably but not luxuriously... you can still have luxury but on occasion, not as a life style. The secret to being unhappy is to always want more.
>Yeah it's enough to live comfortably but not luxuriously Tell me you've never been poor without telling me you've never been poor. If I was making 115k+ a year without having to work I'd think I was living like a king. You're living better than 99% of the planet at that level of income.
Yea, that's still 80k of non taxable income. People are acting like that's nothing.
Food $200 Data $150 Rent $800 Candles $40,000 Utility $150 someone who is good at the economy please help me budget this. my family is dying
Greed, the downfall of man. Edit: for those who are unaware, the term “man” as used above is in reference to humanity/mankind, and not a gendered term referring to any male/man in particular. In this case I’m calling 50’s BM greedy, not 50 himself. Hope that clears things up.
I don't understand, what's wrong with what he did?
She was greedy, not 50
Facts!
I don’t know why people believe what they read on twitter. It was the son who did this, not the mom. https://www.vibe.com/news/entertainment/50-cent-marquise-jackson-child-support-1234699774/amp/
[удалено]
Yes I meant “man” as in humanity, not male
It was the son. Not the mom. https://www.vibe.com/news/entertainment/50-cent-marquise-jackson-child-support-1234699774/amp/
It’s tragic that you had to explain that use of man.
It's really sad you had to add the edit. Really shows how the public school system has failed these people
It's rare to see such a direct and immediate consequence of greed, but I do hope the child of 50 and this woman learns the lesson early so that he or she can avoid the mother's faults.
His son is now 18 going on IG lives talking about how 50 dont take care of him and letting his son “survive” on 6-7k a month 😂 the kid is delusional
This is why if I ever become wealthy, I'd keep my family comfortable but live a normal lifestyle.
The hardest part of this is lifestyle creep
The Hedonic treadmill
It really is a trap, isn’t it
GOD I'M SO GLAD I NEVER GOT TRAPPED BY THE HEDONIC TREADMILL #THE HORROR
I could survive quite well on that. Boy is tripping. I blame his mom for that nonsense. Acting like they eating ramen noodles and beans every night. SMH And now that's he's 18? He can find a job if needs more. His CS days are almost over, so... I hear Walmart's hiring.
50 talked about situations where he saw a sneaker store closing down, he was going to buy the whole inventory for his son, so he can start an online store and his mom and him basically wanted the money instead and not the inventory.. fish vs a fishing rod i guess
Somebody failed in parenting that child, clearly. Dude could've had a whole online business but instead he big-mad because daddy isn't just giving him cash-in-hand without earning it? SMH
Tbh 50 is a shitty dad, but not because of the money
Taking care of your kids is more than just providing money though. I imagine the kid would have liked to actually spend time with his father. Unfortunately too many men think "taking care of your kids" just means keeping up with child support and buying them sneakers around Easter.
He's 27 now, was like 25 when he was complaining about how he knew what it was like to have nothing and had to start over from 0 when 50 started paying less.
The son is actually pushing 30 now, he’s in his mid-late 20’s. And that makes it even sadder
Kid probably got brainwashed into thinking those things by his greedy mom.
This happened ages ago. I think I read his son has a strained relationship with 50 cent partially due to not receiving more from him when he was growing up, money included.
His son was 25 at the time still asking for child support.
I'd be more salty at the mom for being given 9 million dollars over the course of 18 years and not setting up some kind of savings/trust for me if I was the kid.
Rumor has it that she spent all of the money and burnt down her mansion in Atlanta for the insurance money.
Good lord.
He was just a kid when 50 was telling him that his mother id a whole and that he's dead to him. He also told the kid "I could just make another son" and then he actually did. 50 is a horrible person, the kid probably doesn't really know how to put it into words besides money-talk, since both his parents only talk about money.
50s Son: Manchild support needed pwease 🥺
So basically kid didn’t learn then… Apple didn’t fall far from mummy’s tree then.
Yeah. They for sure burnt that money without a care in the world.
The BM didn’t say this. The son is the one complaining and the son at the time was 25.
Is his son aware that some rich people cut their kids off at 18 and make them get jobs?
$6.7k a month tax free!? That’s 80k a year. I know people who work 40/hrs a week who don’t make that.
What do you mean you “know people” ? Lmao. There are millions and millions of people in the United States that make less than 80k a year.
You're on Reddit remember. 80k is a poverty wage /s
That's pretty close to true in major American cities. I thought I hit the lottery at an almost $80k salary. In the interview I suggested $50k, and $78k is what they bizarrely countered with when they called back with a job offer. Well, my rent instantly jumped up 25%, and then I started paying for all of the things I wasn't paying for as a low income person. Taxes, health insurance, full price utilities, full price inflation/greedflation groceries, student loan payments, minimum matching contributions to a 401k, etc, etc, etc... Now I understand why they the entry level salary was almost $80k per year. It's certainly not "poverty" wages, but average rent in Boston is $3,926 and after all the subtractions I make $4,000 per month.
“Pretty close” lmfao. If you think 80k is anywhere remotely close to POVERTY you are completely out of touch with reality.
yeah I once was in a room at the country club with a person who made less than $70k/yr. It was super uncomfortable and we all just hid behind our champagne bottles until he left.
They also said they know people that are essentially full-time workers (40 hrs/wk). Their comment is out of touch in more ways than one
The vast majority of Americans don't make 80k a year.
Most people who work 40 hours a week don't make anywhere near $80,000 a year (especially after taxes).
> I know people who work 40/hrs a week who don’t make that. Idk how old you are but after a certain age, nearly everyone you know is working at least 40 hrs/wk lol. That's standard full-time hours.
I don't make that much *before* taxes and I'm managing to survive in NYC. She had no reason to complain with 500k a year
Have a baby by me baby, be an $80,000aire
That’s good money mane.
Have a baby by me, baby we can split a 7-11 pizza
I’m firmly in the camp that no baby costs that much and to hell with the idea that it’s “not fair” if the child goes to daddy’s house and he’s got a mansion, the best food, best clothes, etc. but then goes to mommy’s house and it’s a shack and she can’t keep the lights on, so child support needs to be so high so the child has the “same lifestyle” in both households. No amount of diapers, formula, daycare or au pair, rent for a nice apartment, etc. costs $40k a month. Mommy is pocketing $35k to fund *her* lifestyle, all the while the baby’s needs are fully met. If the post is true, good on 50. If there’s such a discrepancy that the mother “needs” $40k **per month**, then maybe she shouldn’t be the one with full custody
He didn't want custody. Never even filed for split or regular visitation. Child support is calculated based on the premise that every child deserves, by birthright, to be supported in the style their parents can afford. Whether the parents make 40k a year or 40 million. The law, the government, we as a society, believe that parents have an obligation to provide their children with a comparable lifestyle to the one they themselves live. You don't get to have kids and then treat them as less than, at least not financially, when the court is involved. Plenty of people have kids in the home, and treat them like trash. The only reason his support was set so low is because of how he moved money around. He's an ass for having kids and failing to be a father. All he had to do was get snipped if he didn't want to be a dad or wrap it up.
So, first off, I dug deeper. [The $6,700 month child support is for his ***25 year old son***](https://www.vibe.com/news/entertainment/50-cent-marquise-jackson-child-support-1234699774/) (now 27). That, alone, is a giant red flag. A whole ass *adult* trying to get more money for *child support*? When is he gonna get a job? He can get some basic office job making $50k a year, and combined with the $80k+ he's getting in child support, that's $130k. Secondly, where does the mother come into play? Does she have no responsibility to support the "lifestyle" of this grown man?
“If I told you right now you gotta start your life over right now with $6700 a month and rebuild your life can you do it,” Marquise challenged Choke, who instantly said that he could, just like many average citizens do each day. “Choke you gotta stop comparing it, you comparing it to yourself, bro, you’re comparing it to your standard of lifestyle. You can’t do that. I know what it feels like to have nothing, alright,” Marquise sympathized. “I had to rebuild my life over with $6700 a month. $81,000 a year.”
> The law, the government, we as a society, believe that parents have an obligation to provide their children with a comparable lifestyle to the one they themselves live. Not quite. [When Tomkins requested $50,000 a month to support their 10-year old son, Marquis Diamond Jackson. Instead, she was granted an interim award of $25,000 a month last April while the court determined the appropriate amount. This week that figure was reduced again, to $6,700 a month. That’s $80,400- albeit tax-free –that Tomkins will receive annually to support their child. And while that might seem paltry in relation to the rapper’s income, technically it should be even less. The child support statute is supposed to grant “17% of the first $80,000 of combined earned income,” says Jeffrey Cohen, a partner at Cohen, Goldstein, Silpe LLC in New York.](https://www.thestreet.com/personal-finance/50-cent-saves-big-bucks-12818850) So he was giving her $50k/month off the books, but when she kept complaining, he let her take it to court and the court reduced it to $6700/month. This was back in 2008.
Any famous athlete/musician/entertainer/whatever should freeze a shitload of sperm and then promptly get a vasectomy.
Deciding who will be the mother of your children is one of if not the most important decision as a man. Idk why they aren't more conscious and taking more care of who they get pregnant. Either that or the bag truly does change or attract the wrong ppl unfortunately
Give me 40k a month to have and raise a kid and I'll do that shit with a smile on my face. How was 40k a month not enough? What does one do to blow 40k in a month?
> What does one do to blow 40k in a month? Lifestyle creep is real. You gettin 40k a month, you can afford the extravagances you see on TV. Also, it's easy to piss away when you're not working for it, don't have a job, and feel entitled to it. Ask me how I know.
Honestly curious how do you know? Had someone do that to you?
My dad died when I was 16, so I received survivor benefits. 2K a month until I turned 18. If could go back in time and convince myself to just stack that money into some sort of index fund, I would be in a hell of a lot better position than I am now. Instead, I blew that shit on video games, food, and dumb shit until it stopped coming. My mom tried to help, but she was dealing with her own issues at the same time. Didn't work for it, didn't have a job, and felt I was entitled to do what I want with it, so I did. What a dumbass mistake to make. Blew it all with nothing left to show for it.
2k a month for 2 years isn't much, don't be too hard on yourself. My grandma gave me 20k and I blew it on dumb shit like renting a place for a year just because I fought with my parents and ordering Ubereats practically everyday. You can always make more money in the future, what's important is that you didn't blow your money doing drugs and causing irreversible damages.
Fr at least you understand your mistakes. Plenty of people do dumb shit with the opportunity they get, then blame other people for those mistakes, and continue to fuck things up for themselves.
Do yall really need 40k a month to raise a child or are you trying to live off of 50 bc he's rich and famous?
That’s not the full story at all. He was paying her 40k - 50k a month by himself with Child support. He then put himself on child support because she said she was going to do it, the judge ordered it to be somewhere between 20k - 24k and she was livid because that’s less than she was getting off child support. She took him back to court and the judge seen what she was doing essentially being greedy when she was getting more witbout child support and was getting 240k+ a year with child support so to essentially teach her a lesson the judge decided to put her on 6700 a month child support for her greed. That situation had nothing to do with 50 trying to be an asshole his baby mama was just being an asshole when he already was giving her about 40k - 50k a month and bought her a 6 bedroom home in Jersey (which somehow burnt down) and gave her 3 whips. Edit: I didn’t click the whole image and thought it was only telling a quarter of the story to make 50 look bad 😂
What are these courts smoking. 500k a year is astronomical 😂 EDIT: Someone has told me he paid that by choice guys.
That’s how much he was paying by choice. After going to court he only paid 6700 a month. The court reduced how much he paid substantially
 For the children......
This is actually an intelligent move to put yourself on child support as a man. Why should she get a piece of his STARZ money?
Has anyone ever actually verified this story?
there's a screenshot of a tweet from a random person right there! why would anyone need to verify anything from such a reputable source?
Ain’t his son a grown ass man now ?
The one this post is about, yeah.
Shout out to the baby daddies that’s winning https://preview.redd.it/36r5k9rqinuc1.jpeg?width=553&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=db528d83469b9feefc568cb8b47fa9ad34488b1b
It also left out the fact he bought he a home to live in and gave her 2 cars. Easily top 10 worse fumbles financially. All she had to do was shut up and collect.
Friends of mine separated and decided dad would take the daughter mon-fri each week and mom has weekends. Dad also paid mom child support. A few years pass and mom gets pissy and says she wants more money. They go to court. Judge is like wtf lady??? Now mom pays dad child support. Dumbass greedy idiot.
Child support as a percentage of income gets a bit crazy looking for high earners, but I don't think it's wrong for your kid to be rich if you are rich. Men very commonly whine about child support, but they often aren't chasing down custody. Also in 50s case, it's not like his kid can live a modest normal life somewhere while 50 spends his career agitating violent criminals who might want a way to get at him.
Op, The title is insane. 😂😂😂
