Publisher's summary

In The 50th Law, hip hop and pop culture icon 50 Cent (aka Curtis Jackson) joins forces with Robert Greene, best-selling author of The 48 Laws of Power, to write a "bible" for success in life and work, based on a single principle: fear nothing.

With intimate stories from 50 Cent's life on the streets and in the boardroom as he rose to fame after the release of his album Get Rich or Die Tryin', as well as examples of others who have overcome adversity through understanding and practicing the 50th Law, this deeply inspirational book is perfect for entrepreneurs as well as anyone interested in the extraordinary life of Curtis Jackson.

Grate book

my only problem is that 50 didn't narrate it him self
it's a bit cringy at times to hear a man whom does not come from the hood talk about it like it's a different planet.
my own opinion. I come from similar situations as 50 and know that part of life so for me it seems off whit a guy who has no experience of that talk about it 😞

Excellent advice from an enduring life

Equal parts actionable and entertaining! The only thing I would say is that I wish there was more of 50 Cent’s life story. Excellent advice from an enduring voice.

Inconsistent

The overall message of the book was great and clear. Be fearless because that’s how you grow in life and you only have limited time to do so.

On the flip side I found that many anecdotes were repetitive and contradictory. For example, the author makes a huge point about not waiting and moving forward full bore. This is only amplified by the story of 50 understanding that and not waiting also. However in the literal next chapter, he tells how 50 biding his time helped him win...

I’m a fan of Robert Greene for the most part and enjoyed the book. The discussion at the end regarding death felt all over the place and didn’t have a huge impact. Overall a worthwhile read but the author will talk in weird circles occasionally.

Robert Greene's philosophy summary

I find this book as a life companion, coming back to it several times a year.

I love Robert Green style and insights, but the rest of books require very deep attention and concentration.
I find The 50th Law the most direct, as well as summing up his main ideas. The historical examples are shorter, as well as including many less citations than the other books.

This book is greatly applicable to our daily difficulties: how not to get pushed around by bosses/clients at the same time than getting what we want from them, how to stand independently on our own even when we have to rely on others in order to move forward, how to get the best out of every situation...
Much research behing on the great examples in history as well as in Psychology science make Robert Greene's principles timeless.

I also love to see how so different personalities and backgrounds like those of Robert Greene and 50 cent might bring so common conclussions about how to deal with life, to the table.
