'I thought 50 Cent was rich, no?' is the first thing that came to my mind when I saw this headline floating around the web. Turns out, he's really filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy today after recently being praised for his business intelligence by the New York Times.

The Times called him a Renaissance man. But today, he filed for bankruptcy.
