I find this hard to believe. But I guess once you start making a certain amount of money, it's hard to take less.

Sources say that Jay-Z left Def Jam simply because it didn't pay enough money.

He reportedly makes more money being an artist and an entrepenuer than he does being a record executive.

He is currently focused on opening more 40/40 clubs. The next ones are opening in, L.A., Miami, London, Chicago and Houston.

Let's not forget about the hotel investment he just made and the rumors going around about starting up a new label with Apple.

Does this smash all rumors that he is headed to Sony? We'll see.

This man will never stop making money!
