Bow Wow Tells Child Support Judge He Makes $4K A Month As Cash Money Employee

Bow Wow should be on cloud nine knowing that he will be one of the new hosts of BET’s 106 & Park. However, he might want to ask Birdman for a raise.

On Monday (October 1st), Bow Wow was busy haggling with a judge over how much child support he should pay for his one year-old daughter, Shai. According to TMZ, Bow was able to finagle kicking in $3K a month to his baby mother Joie Chavis. However, the amount of money he is claiming to earn a month is ironically low considering he’s part of YMCMB, short for Young Money Cash Money Billionaires. 

Bow Wow told the judge … he makes $4,000 a month working as an employee at Cash Money Records, and that’s it.  He testified he leases a Jeep and has a grand total of $1,500 in his checking account.

So here’s the question — if he makes $4,000 a month before taxes, how can he afford to pay $3,000 a month in child support?  

We’ll here’s an answer … After the court hearing was concluded, Bow Wow was officially named host of BET’s long-running and influential hip hop show, “106 & Park.”  Bow Wow made no mention of this in court.

The judge will have some tough questions for Bow Wow in December, when the court rules on a permanent child support order.

In the meantime, the judge also ordered Bow Wow to pay $11,500 in back child support.

Calls to Bow Wow’s rep were not immediately returned.

In all fairness, making what works out to $48K a year is nothing to sneeze at, especially in a down economy. However, considering how much loot his crew throws around (see Lil Wayne’s recent birthday treats), Shad Moss is seriously lacking when it comes to that guap.
