It's pretty interesting for the fact that it (probably) makes him the richest man in hip-hop (the list is from August '06):

1. P. Diddy -- $346 Million
2. Jay-Z -- $340 Million
3. Russell Simmons -- $325 Million
4. Damon Dash -- $200 Million
5. Neptunes -- $155 Million
6 Dr. Dre -- $150 Million
7. Ice Cube -- $145 Million
8. Eminem -- $110 Million
9. 50 Cent -- $100 Million
10. Nelly -- $60 Million
10. (Tie) Jermaine Dupri -- $60 Million

wow in the less than a year these numbers have been completely thrown off and are so wrong now...Jay-Z has said in recent songs he is worth about $537mil and puff is worth about $550mil (idk how he gained so much money in the last year but apparently he did) ...besides the fact 50 cent will be paying about 43% of his 400mil in taxes but it will almost triple his net worth reportedly post taxes, which is kinda sick...

I think more like 15-20%, since I believe it's capital gains.

Also, I love Vitamin Water, and their new energy drink line (with the same flavors as the water line) is my new favorite for energy drinks.
