--------
In this clip, Tony Yayo and DJ Vlad revisit James Cruz's days with Violator, including the "paperwork mishap" with Vitamin Water that cost him millions of dollars. Yayo indicates that he always stayed out of financial matters involving 50 Cent, James Cruz and Chris Lighty. This prompts DJ Vlad to mention an instance where Young Buck talks about not receiving any money from the Vitamin Water deal either. To that, Tony Yayo called Young Buck unpredictable before stating that he should have been more concerned with his own finances and not business transactions made by their boss, 50 Cent. Lastly, Yayo compares Bucks' spending habits to 50 Cent's saving habits.

On May 25, 2007, Rohan Oza's old company acquired Vitamin Water's parent company Glaceau for a mind-boggling $4.1 billion in cash. That purchase price reportedly earned 50 Cent an estimated $150 - $200 million before taxes, roughly $75 million - $100 million after taxes. Whatever the final number, it was easily ten times more than 50 Cent had ever made selling records up to that point. So what's the lesson here? Get rich or die trying by endorsing the things you love in real life!
