50 CENT ON CNBC

Love him or hate him, the underdog's on top. There seems to be no ceiling to 50 Cent's success in both music and business. Anyone who argues that Get Rich or Die Trying isn't one of the best albums of all time is hating. On a business level he's done everything from clothes, shoes, video games, and most notably Vitamin Water. Personally, I'm most amazed by the fact that Robert Greene, the author of the classic 48 Laws of Power, wrote a sequel with 50 called the 50th Law. 50's business acumen has earned him the respect of the top business people in the world, including those at the most popular network in the world.
