It doesn't get much richer than betting-thousands-of-dollars-on-a-Madden-game-you-have-no-control-over rich.

In his inaugural Twitch stream, artist and producer T-Pain tells a short anecdote from his days in the studio with Lil Wayne and Birdman. 

The two were so incomprehensibly wealthy that they would bet up to $10,000 on Madden games. But not just any Madden games. Madden games with no user playing. Just too computers duking it out. For $10,000.

While crediting it as "the most balling-est sh*t" he'd ever seen in his life, T-Pain notes he never participated because "they got damn near billions of dollars" and he had no intention in pretending he was "in that bracket"

The entirety of T-Pain's first stream is viewable here.
