Bankrupt 50 Cent seeks court's permission to pay basic bills for his lavish mansion... which costs 72K a month to maintain

Bankrupt 50 Cent has asked the court to let him keep paying the bills for the upkeep of his lavish mansion.

The entertainer, real name Curtis Jackson III, ususally shells out $72,000 in monthly expenses at his Connecticut estate.

But after filing for bankruptcy in July, the 40-year-old rapper must now get court permission to pay all bills, no matter how basic, reportsTMZ.

When are these idiots going to realize that fame, fortune and the income generated from such are not going to last forever?

I guess it would be beyond his thought processes to sell the mansion and pay his bills. Just say’n

Sure, if he were broke.

Fiddy's got plenty of money. He's trying to hide it from people suing him. That's all this is.

If he’s living in a mansion that costs 72k a month just to run he isn’t really bankrupt.

He just wants the people suing him to think he is.

The hits just keep coming:The musician has sold more than 22million albums, and Forbes once estimated the entertainer and businessman's net worth at $150million. However, in bankruptcy paperwork 50 Cent reported $32million in debts - including $2,000 he owed to his grandfather.

Will the bank please, just take care of pops!

Money aside, what does a person actually do in a home that size?

Personally, I’ve never understood how anybody can spend $72,000/month on personal needs.

It said the estate has been up for sale since 2007. That’s ridiculous.

Farmington CT, where his house is, has a population of 25,000 and is 2.3% black. It has a very low crime rate.

Just like athletes, many entertainers eventually end up where they would have been without the fame & fortune - broke (like MC Hammer) or dead (like Tupac).

And nary a one ever thought to put aside a few bucks toward the day when they lost their meal ticket. Stupid is as stupid does. No pity.

I have no sympathy for them; they are just the worst role models imaginable (for that reason among many others).

Exactly.

“I may complain a little bit less at the next cable bill. “

Yeah, but your “entourage” is probably somewhat smaller than 50 cents’.
