Yo Gotti landed the cover of Forbes for their "Lifestyle" feature, and the CMG boss spoke about setting himself up for financial success.
Forbes estimates that Yo Gotti, who has a minority stake in the MLS team D.C. United and owns the restaurant Prive in Memphis, is worth an estimated $100 million. While speaking about his success, Yo Gotti tells Forbes, "If I never wrote another rap again, I’m financially straight. My whole career, I was setting up for that."
Yo Gotti also spoke about taking business classes at UCLA’s Anderson School of Management in December with a focus on corporate valuation. He explained, "I may want to buy a company or acquire another company. So I’m making sure I’m supertight—and understand the language and the verbiage myself other than listening [to financial experts]."
Elsewhere in the conversation, Yo Gotti reacted to being asked if he'd ever sell his music catalog, and he stated, "It’s not that cut and dried. I'm beyond transactional thinking. I'm thinking of real generational wealth. How will we have this money forever, like [the Walton family of] Walmart?"
