Michael Jordan is now a billionaire.


In February, my colleague and the Dean of athlete earnings, Kurt Badenhausen, pegged Jordan’s annual earnings at $90 million and his net worth at $750 million. But I have learned from sources familiar with the Charlotte Hornets that the former NBA great has increased his stake in his basketball team to 89.5% from 80% during the past several months.
Jordan first became an investor in the Hornets (then the Bobcats) in 2006 and became the controlling owner in 2010 when he bought out Robert Johnson for $175 million. In January we valued the Hornets at $410 million. But sports bankers say the Hornets are presently worth between $600 million and $625 million. The Milwaukee Bucks sold for $550 million in May, and they are considered the least valuable team in the league.

Our net worth figure for Jordan uses the $600 million figure. The Hornets have $135 million of debt, which makes Jordan’s equity in the team worth $416 million. After subtracting all the cash Jordan has invested in the team, we estimate his net worth outside of the Hornets to be $600 million, giving him a net worth of a $1 billion (Kurt and I discuss Jordan in video below).
Welcome to the billionaires club, Mr. Jordan.

Mkuu Pazi, watu wengine wameshaandikiwa tangu mbinguni kama wao ni wa kupata tu, hata wapigwe vita namna gani lakini mambo yao siku zote hunyooka tu, ila mie nilidhani Magic Johnson angekuwa billionaire kabla ya Michael Jordan sidhani naye kama atamaliza hata miaka miwili kabla ya kuingia kwenye hiyo Club. Ni kweli Mkuu kuna wengi walikuwa wanapata ngawira chungu nzima lakini leo hawana kitu. Juzi nimesoma article kuhusu Iverson kwamba anashindwa hata kununua hamburger moja ya McDonald!!!! Article ile imenisikitisha sana. Pesa ni mwanaharamu ukijaaliwa kuipata kama hukutuliza akili basi inaweza ikakukimbia yote.

Sahih International
Indeed, Qarun was from the people of Moses, but he tyrannized them. And We gave him of treasures whose keys would burden a band of strong men; thereupon his people said to him, "Do not exult. Indeed, Allah does not like the exultant.
Swahili
Hakika Qaruni alikuwa katika watu wa Musa, lakini aliwafanyia dhulma. Na tulimpa khazina ambazo funguo zake zinawatopeza watu wenye nguvu kuzichukua. Walipo mwambia watu wake: Usijigambe! Hakika Mwenyezi Mungu hawapendi wanao jigamba.

Sahih International
But seek, through that which Allah has given you, the home of the Hereafter; and [yet], do not forget your share of the world. And do good as Allah has done good to you. And desire not corruption in the land. Indeed, Allah does not like corrupters."
Swahili
Na utafute, kwa aliyo kupa Mwenyezi Mungu, makaazi ya Akhera. Wala usisahau fungu lako la dunia. Nawe fanya wema kama Mwenyezi Mungu alivyo kufanyia wema wewe. Wala usitafute kufanya ufisadi katika ardhi. Hakika Mwenyezi Mungu hawapendi mafisadi.

Sahih International
He said, "I was only given it because of knowledge I have." Did he not know that Allah had destroyed before him of generations those who were greater than him in power and greater in accumulation [of wealth]? But the criminals, about their sins, will not be asked.
Swahili
Akasema: Kwa hakika nimepewa haya kwa sababu ya ilimu niliyo nayo. Je! Hakujua kwamba Mwenyezi Mungu kesha waangamiza, katika vizazi vya walio kabla yake, watu walio kuwa wenye ngubvu zaidi kuliko yeye, na wenye makundi makubwa zaidi kuliko yake. Na wakosefu hawataulizwa khabari ya dhambi zao.

Sahih International
So he came out before his people in his adornment. Those who desired the worldly life said, "Oh, would that we had like what was given to Qarun. Indeed, he is one of great fortune."
Swahili
Basi akawatokea watu wake katika pambo lake. Wakasema wale walio kuwa wanataka maisha ya duniani: Laiti tungeli kuwa tunayo kama aliyo pewa Qaruni! Hakika yeye ni mwenye bahati kubwa.

28:80to top

Sahih International
But those who had been given knowledge said, "Woe to you! The reward of Allah is better for he who believes and does righteousness. And none are granted it except the patient."
Swahili
Na wakasema wale walio pewa ilimu: Ole wenu! Malipo ya Mwenyezi Mungu ni bora kwa mwenye kuamini na akatenda mema. Wala hawatapewa hayo isipo kuwa wenye subira.

28:81to top

Sahih International
And We caused the earth to swallow him and his home. And there was for him no company to aid him other than Allah , nor was he of those who [could] defend themselves.
Swahili
Basi tukamdidimiza yeye na nyumba yake katika ardhi; wala halikuwepo kundi lolote la kumnusuru kwa Mwenyezi Mungu, wala hakuwa miongoni mwa wanao jitetea.

28:82to top

Sahih International
And those who had wished for his position the previous day began to say, "Oh, how Allah extends provision to whom He wills of His servants and restricts it! If not that Allah had conferred favor on us, He would have caused it to swallow us. Oh, how the disbelievers do not succeed!"
Swahili
Na wale walio tamani kuwa pahala pake jana, wakawa wanasema: Kumbe Mwenyezi Mungu humkunjulia riziki amtakaye katika waja wake, na humdhikisha amtakaye. Ingeli kuwa Mwenyezi Mungu hakutufanyia hisani angeli tudidimiza. Kumbe makafiri hawafanikiwi!

Duh umetoka umemuongelea Damon Dash nimetoka sasa hivi Worldstarhiphop kumsikiliza anajitetea kuhusu watu wanaosema yeye ni broke hehe.
 
Kama wiki mbili zilizopita nilikuwa naangalia kipindi cha kuwahusu wachezaji wa American Football ambao waliamua kufunguka kuzungumzia jinsi walivyofilisika. Aisee inasikitisha sana wengi walikuwa wanalia kama watoto. Wengi wao wametoka katika familia ambazo hazikuwa na pesa, basi wanapopata pesa wanajisahau na maisha ya anasa na wakija kutahamaki pesa yote imekimbia na wale waliokuwa wamewazunguka kutafuna pesa zao wote wameingia mitini.

Umesema kweli ila Floyd nafikiri anajuwa nini anachofanya haitokuwa rahisi yeye kufilisika kirahisi ila tukija Iverson aliendekeza sana Hood na marafiki sio na alikuwa party anazirusha bila mafanikio mapenzi yake kwa watu aliyatumia vibaya aliipenda Hood yake kwa kuwapa pesa ovyo bila Kuwa na chakuingizia pesa, hajafanya Kama Magic Johnson Kuwa na makampuni au Michael Jordan Huyu MJ kwenye viatu alivisimamia Nike kwa akili ya kuijuwa haki yake sio tu kupewa pesa ale Kama Iverson alivyocheza na Reebok yeye ali tizama mshahara tu.

Safi sana Billionea mwingine huyo baada ya Dr.Dre
 
Michael Jordan has reached billionaire status.
Forbes Magazine estimated Thursday that Jordan's equity as owner of the NBA's Charlotte Hornets is $416 million and his net worth outside of the team to be $600 million. It reported Jordan now owns 89.5 percent of theHornets.
Jordan's spokeswoman Estee Portnoy confirmed to The Associated Press that Jordan purchased an additional stake in the Hornets in January of 2013, but wouldn't say how much.
Portnoy had no comment on whether or not Jordan is a billionaire.
A six-time NBA champion, Jordan earned fame and fortune on the basketball court, as well as through endorsements and movies. The 51-year-old Jordan became the majority owner of the Hornets (formerly the Bobcats) in 2010 when he bought out Bob Johnson's share of the team.
 
Wakuu The Boss na Pazi, pesa si ya kuchezea hata kidogo kwa maisha ya anasa. Ukijaliwa kuipata shukuru Mungu kisha utulize akili ili ikufanyie kazi na kukusitiri siku za usoni ukiendekeza maisha ya anasa basi utaadhirika vibaya sana.
