50 Cent has made some revelations about how much was spent on legal fees at different stages of his career, indicating that some of the suites were for “recreational” purposes.

The G-Unit boss, in a recent interview, said he had spent over $24 million paying lawyers in various litigations.

“I’ll do it for recreational purposes…When they agitate me, I’ll send the f**kin’ lawyers…Twenty-four million in my career so far. I can’t wait till I get rich.

“Just on lawyers…I’ve spent $24 million in my career on legal fees,” he stated in the podcast called Million Dollaz Worth Of Game on YouTube.

He made the statement when the host asked him to explain just how much he’s spent on legal fees, considering that he had always been involved in one banter or the other.

50 Cent has, over the years, grown from an up-and-coming artiste signed by Dr. Dre to a top-rated musician and business mogul.

He is known as someone who does not play about his money, and now it is clear that he is ready to spend a fortune to have his legal team litigate on his behalf.

Some followers suggested that the amount stated would be easy for him to afford since he has business interests that generate lots of income for him.

In August this year, the rapper and entrepreneur secured a significant legal victory in a multi-million dollar “wiretapping” case.

A $4 million lawsuit filed against him by Michael Caruso earlier this year was dismissed by the court, marking another triumph in 50 Cent’s legal battles.

Caruso had accused 50 Cent of illegally recording a conversation at his office and then handing it over to lawyers for use in the legal proceedings. However, the court ruled in favor of 50 Cent, stating that Caruso had waited too long to file the complaint.

The court’s decision highlighted that the “statute of limitations” for such cases was two years.
