Man, Jay would find out you forfeited 50k to have dinner with him and smack ya dumbass upside the head :stopitslime:
For what reason is he gonna go out of his way to put you on, give you connections like that? 99% of yall don't have ideas worth shyt, like you gon tell Hov something and make him hit the :ohhh:
:mjlol:

this, ultimately, most don’t have anything to market, your best bet is to get a job maybe on tour or at roc nation and grow from there

:snoop:

i dont have a business "idea"

i have an active functioning business...

jesus christ....

If i wanted to invest 50k i could pull out an sba loan for more than that at 1% interest

50k is not some amazing opportunity to me

the main issue with this question is you have thousands of 9-5 workers who think business meetings are only for pitching "ideas" or trying to get a mentor. Yall have nothing built that could integrate or improve any facet of any business jayz has. I've worked with people with larger net worth than him and didn't feel awkward or out of place.... this isnt some crazy situation
I think when you sit in the room with a person of that status whatever you're selling better be extra special because everyone is pushing stuff at a person like that constantly. A person like that, a very known celebrity, has to have built up a numbness to people pitching ideas and pushing their businesses at him.

The chances are you walk away with that meeting with some memories and maybe something signed. I'd rather have the free money. I'll treat it like most other found money I come across invest it and forget it.

have you ever marketed your business to a multi millionaire businessman?

or are you just speaking from speculation?

Was plugged by a building owner in Beverly hills with an office. Potential renter came by when owner was busy. I had keys to the whole building. Showed dude around as a courtesy to the owner. We chop it up then sit down for lunch and talk for 3 hours. Persian Jewish commercial real estate guy. They run alot if stuff my way because he liked me. Work with Chinese development firms. End up spending alot if time at their office in downtown. 888 Figueroa building owner is a close friend of theirs. Persian Jewish development and investment firm ran on their same floor. Run into the owner regularly in elevator. Cosign from my client gets me a lunch at a Brazilian spot with that owner. He has hands on $1bill+. Lunch went well. Business does well.

the fact that jay makes money through endorsements he doesnt run one business that makes capital.

- no longer active rocawear when they gave it to him from the dame split.

- no armdale ditto.

- 40/40 club he owned 50%

- roc nation owes livenation 50% of all earnings including touring smh.

- jay makes money through being a figurehead (sponsorship) thanks to beyonce making him PR friendly.

he woulnt even be the best rapper to ask for advice for 50k. :russ:
