Curt Jackson. I am guessing you have never heard of him. Well, Curt Jackson just made $410 million last week. You see, Curt made an endorsement deal with VitaminWater a few years ago. VitaminWater is a competitor of Gatorade. It was a very wise deal that he made with his favorite sports drink. They didn't have a lot of money to give him to endorse their product, so they game him 10% of the company. Well, Coca Cola decided they didn't want the competition of VitaminWater anymore, so they bought it for $4.10 billion.

Curt has lived a tough life. He has been shot nine times. He is from Jamaica Queens. He originally wanted to be a heavyweight boxer, but then decided to try to get into music. He did. He has always been money oriented; thus, his stage name. He has made millions of dollars as a musician, but he just hit the big money with this VitaminWater deal.

Curt Jackson, a.k.a, 50 cent. So, the next time you are down on the rap community, just think of Curt and his VitaminWater
