50 Cent is quite bold to tell the world his image was untrue. Unlike cyclist Lance Armstrong who will no doubt squirm as he walks that fine line of admitting to doping while maintaining that he’s still a great athlete.
50 Cent is transparent about why he lied as well, he did it for the money, but now he wants to make a change.
“I still get a rush off money, but I now realize it can serve a higher purpose: helping others,” he notes. “But unless you are physically strong and mentally tough, you can’t go out and make that money to enjoy it with the ones you love, or for whatever purpose you have in mind.”
