Why does everyone hate this man so much!! It may seem as thought he has this huge ego but its because he has had to go through so much to get where he is and if he does not believe in himself and celebrate his own accomplishments, nobody will. The man has accomplished so much for himself,has come so far and has done so much good for others. Why doesn't anyone want to talk about that? I understand why he sometimes acts and says the things he does, because if he allowed the opions of all the haters to base his self worth or self esteem on, he wouldn't think anything of himself. Yes he is still ruff around the edges,and yes he still has some self issues that he is still working out in himself and his life, but who doesn't, why do you people count someone out so fast? I'm sure you like and wear diamonds! They start out a black, dirty, ruff, undesireable piece of coal, but through time and pressure, it forms into a "diamond in the ruff". When the gemologist gets it, he sees what it can become, not what it looks like. Let me remind you, its still a DIAMOND in all its glory. That man has come a long way and has accomlished so much. Yes, he does have a big mouth, he wouldn't be 50 cent if he didn't have a big mouth, LOL, but he's on his way to becoming great within himself. Look at ALL the positive stuff he has done for himself and others. SO BE NICE!
