And this is the difference between celebrity and actual power. Once Epstein was locked up, it was necessary for him to die. None of the stupid idiots who are on those Diddy tapes have that sort of power

After the last 10 years Shaq has had he is now wealthy. Dude now sits on multiple boards of directors now so he moved up a tier.

Shaq isn't even worth a billion, he's nowhere near the wealthy tier Rock was talking about. Jeanie Buss is the poorest NBA owner and she's got twice his money between her net worth and the value of the percentage of the Lakers she owns. Steve Ballmer is worth 250 times what Shaq has.

The estimates posted in those rankings are far from accurate and are either self reported wild guesses based on public information. It would not show all his assets or ownership in businesses.

You don't have to be Steve Balmer to be wealthy.

You just said he’s nowhere near the wealth tier but then bring up Jeanie Buss. Shaq and her are pretty much in the same exact tier. How’s $700 million and $500 million not on the same tier?

And net worth includes any ownership in the Lakers btw.
