7. 50 Cent
50 Cent made himself out to look like a fool when he filed for bankruptcy to avoid paying millions of dollars in multiple lawsuits. Many of his fans didn’t believe the supposed fact that their rap idol was broke when he filed the papers, but according to sources, 50 Cent’s earnings really aren’t as high as they were claimed to have been. While the rapper’s brand may be worth over $100 million, his own net worth could stand as low as $20 million. Because, as a brand, one is not the sole shareholder of all the money that the company makes, and when people began to realize that 50 made not be worth close to half a billion after all, he became a laughing stock.
