Imagine for a moment a parallel universe where you could afford to never have to work again past the age of 29.
That's what rapper Bow Wow, formerly Lil' Bow Wow and real name Shad Moss, is planning to do because he 'doesn't seem himself rapping past the age of 30'.
Of course, he has been working since he was just 13 - but still, earning $20 million in 16 years is nothing to be sniffed at.
He shared his plans for the future on Twitter, in a series of tweets that will make most people hate him and admire him in equal measures.

Bow Wow plans one final album, 'Underrated', that will be executive produced by his 'uncle', Snoop Dogg, the man who discovered him as a child - but it won't be the last we'll see of him, as his acting career will continue apace. He has had roles in 'The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift' and in CSI: Cyber in recent years.
Now, back to work, everyone....
