Hate a liar more than I hate thief. A thief is only after my salary a liar is after my reality.
They don't understand the process I went through and how much I had to believe in myself...
Some people are born with very little; some are fortunate enough to have it all. When I grew up, we didn't have much. I had to hustle to get what I wanted... but I had that hunger for more. I didn't always make the right choices, but I learned from my mistakes.
Every negative is a positive. The bad things that happen to me, I somehow make them good. That means you can't do anything to hurt me.
I never allowed my fear to limit me.
Success is my drug of choice.
The greatest fear people have is that of being themselves. They want to be 50 Cent or someone else. They do what everyone else does even if it doesn’t fit where and who they are. But you get nowhere that way; your energy is weak and no one pays attention to you. You’re running away from the one thing that you own – what makes you different. I lost that fear. And once I felt the power that I had by showing the world I didn’t care about being like other people, I could never go back.
Wise men listen and laugh, while fools talk.

I started hustling at 12, my mother hustled ahead of me. I was only allowed to because they knew me.
Every day, families in Africa go without food and water, never knowing when their next meal might be; but we can change that if we all work together. In order to make a difference, every purchase of my new energy shot, Street King, will provide a meal for a child in need.
It's difficult for me to trust a woman. Men are attracted to beautiful women. Women are attracted to men who offer security - financial security. And if you have money and you're famous, women find that sexy.
