Money

Hit maker Scott Storch won't be flat ass broke for long ... not if Rick Ross, Chris Brown, and Tyga have anything to say about it -- according to Scott, they're his meal ticket out of bankruptcy.

Storch tells TMZ ... he’s already recorded hot tracks that'll have him back in the black as soon as late summer when Brown's album comes out. Storch says it features a collab he produced for Chris and Tyga.

He's confident he can return to his heyday of the 2000s ... when he made smashes like "Cry Me a River" and "Fighter."

The new hits can't come soon enough -- TMZ broke story ... Storch blew $70 mil, and now says he's down to $100 in cash. As for the drug problems that cost him a huge chunk of money -- Scott claims he hasn’t done coke in 2 years.

He has a new record label too called CCS, and he's already signed R&B singer Mario.

Daddy needs a new pair o' shoes.

Are you rich? Like REALLY, REALLY rich???

Well, good news ... 'cause Floyd Mayweather says if you drop $3.8 MILLION to buy his ultra-rare Ferrari Enzo ... he'll throw in a picture with you FOR FREE!!!

We already told you Floyd's been getting serious interest in the car from legit billionaires -- but they all seem to have special requests to sweeten the deal ... from photo ops, to video shoots ... one guy even wants to spar with Floyd.

So, when we shot Floyd out in NYC after he finished up some jewelry shopping Wednesday ... we had to ask if he was down for a photo op with whoever buys the car.

Bobbi Kristina was the victim of a nefarious plot by her boyfriend Nick Gordon, who secretly stole cash from her Whitney Houston inheritance, and physically abused her ... according to Bobbi's conservator.

Bobbi Kristina's estate filed a $40 million lawsuit against Gordon on Wednesday ... accusing Gordon of regularly transferring funds from her account to his account, including $11,000 AFTER she'd fallen into the coma.

The docs also say Gordon was beating Bobbi Kristina, and on one occasion dragged "her upstairs by her hair." He also allegedly punched her in the face and knocked out a front tooth.

Bobbi Kristina intended to reveal the abuse she was suffering to a close friend. According to the docs, she had set up a time to meet that friend on Jan. 31 ... but she never made it.

Instead, Bobbi Kristina was found face down in her bathtub that morning with a swollen mouth and another tooth knocked out. The lawsuit doesn't squarely blame Gordon for those injuries, but it strongly hints at it -- and as we've reported ... police have been investigating Nick.

Listen up, Taylor Swift ... Miguel's about to tell you, you're his hero -- but not in a cheesy Bette Midler kinda way.

This is quick, but so freakin' telling -- all it took were 2 magic words for Miguel to start grinning outside Bootsy Bellows Tuesday night.

Miguel can't hide his glee over Taylor's rant at Apple for its streaming music debacle. Apple wasn't going to pay artists for tunes played during a free trial period for its service -- until Taylor went off.

Scott Storch -- the famed music producer who produced tracks for Christina Aguilera, Justin Timberlake, Beyonce and a slew of others -- was worth $70 million. Now he's got a hundred dollars cash.

Storch filed for bankruptcy claiming he has a grand total of $3,600 of assets to his name -- $100 in cash, $500 in clothing and a $3k watch. Most shocking ... his music companies are valued at $0.

Storch produced some of the biggest records in music history, including Timberlake's "Cry Me a River" and Aguilera's "Fighter."

He claims in bankruptcy docs he made a grand total of $10,000 last year.

As for how Storch lost his money, he reportedly blew through $30 mil in a 6 month span on drugs.

He also spent a fortune on cars, houses and other extravagances.

Harvey Keitel played "The Wolf" for E*Trade -- swooping in to save its ass in a commercial series, only to have the company yank a $1.5 million deal out from under him ... according to his lawsuit.

Keitel says E*Trade came to him in early 2014 ... desperate to land a new spokesman, after Christopher Walken turned them down twice. Negotiations were fast and furious, and they agreed on a 3 commercial deal -- he says the company sent him the contract, and he accepted the terms.

But 2 days later, E*Trade informed Keitel it was "moving in a different direction" with their ads. He says there was no further explanation, but they did offered him $150k ... as a kill fee.

Tori Spelling and hubby Dean McDermott are clearly strapped for cash ... they spent Father’s Day unloading all their crap at a massive yard sale at their San Fernando Valley rental.

Signs were posted around their Encino neighborhood touting antiques, furniture, clothing, jewelry ... everything that's not nailed down.

We’re told McDermott handed out refreshments to the people braving the 100 degree heat and suckered in by their #SummerSale hashtag.

Ray J's ex Princess Love lost way more than a BF when they broke up -- she lost the freakin' BENTLEY she bought with her own dough!

The "Love & Hip-Hop: Hollywood" star is calling BS on Ray J's claim that HE bought the whip for her last year. Princess was in Bev Hills -- walking, mind you -- when she claimed SHE paid for it, but Ray J jacked it back.

Princess accepts some of the blame though since she's the "dumb ass" who put the car in Ray J's company's name. But she IS pissed about what he did with it after they split.

Don't cry for her too much -- Princess is strolling into Cartier in this clip.

Mama June, Sugar Bear and the rest of the 'Honey Boo Boo' clan have been a financial bonanza for their landlord, who stands to make a killing off their Georgia digs.

The owner of the 1,368 sq. ft. 3 bed, 1.5 bath home -- heavily featured on the cancelled reality show -- has put the house on the market for $45k, almost twice the $27k he bought it for 5 years ago.

The home’s been vacant since Mama June bailed for an upgrade earlier this year…and we’re told they left the place in pretty good shape. Only a few repairs to the roof and other minor stuff.

The brand new security system they left behind probably spiked the price.

But one thing could turn buyers away ... all those 'sketti marks.

How bad do the New York Yankees want A-Rod to have his 3,000 hit ball back? So bad that the team is offering a smorgasbord of AWESOME pinstriped-themed goodies ... so says the guy who caught it.

We spoke to Zack Hample ... the lucky dog who snagged A-Rod's historic dinger, and he tells us the Yanks made an incredible offer to him the minute the MLB authenticated his ball.

According to Hample the deal included ...

- Seats in the "Legends" section of Yankees stadium

- A personal meeting with A-Rod

- His own press conference with the media

- Appearances on the YES network for the rest of the season

- A "sizable" donation" to the charity of Hample's choice (with A-Rod to match the donation)

FYI -- sitting in the swanky "Legends" section of Yankees stadium is a big deal, with tickets running up to $1,500 per game ... and include gourmet food and drinks for the whole 9 innings.

Hample says it ain't just the Yanks who want the ball -- with multiple auction houses and collectors offering big cash for the rock -- but he hasn't made up his mind about what to do with it just yet.

Isabella Barrett -- the former "Toddlers and Tiaras" star who got famous by calling a pint-sized competitor a hooker -- was out in New York City Friday with a swagger that rivals The Donald.

Bella told our photog she has a shoe collection that could have given Imelda Marcos a run for her money. And speaking of money, Bella brags she's a millionaire, with a clothing and jewelry line that makes tons of cash.

"Fresh Off The Boat" star Hudson Yang is gonna demand "Friends" money by the time he hits 20 -- because the adorable 11-year-old's already making bank, despite being a newbie to acting.

Yang plays rap-obsessed tween Eddie Huang on the ABC comedy ... about an Asian-American fam in Orlando. It premiered to huge ratings back in February.

Since he’s a minor, Yang’s deal had to be approved by a judge … and according to the docs, if the show lasts 7 seasons, he’ll be a millionaire by his 18th birthday. It's already been picked up for Season 2.

Yang hauled in $227,500 for the first 13 episodes. Not bad, considering his only credit before this was a small role in a movie nobody saw.

He's gonna get 4% raises each season of the show. That's a ton of video games and skateboards, dude.

Steven Spielberg’s little leading lady in “The BFG" is only 11, but she's gonna be counting a lot of zeroes soon ... at least based on the sweet deal she scored with the mega producer/director.

Ruby Barnhill's minor's contract says she'll make $85k for the first movie ... based on the bestselling kids' book about a little girl who befriends a 24-foot tall giant. And if this turns out to be another Spielberg blockbuster ... it could unlock a lot more cash for Ruby.

Ruby's contract with Dreamworks -- which was filed in L.A. County Court 'cause she's a kid -- says the studio could pick her up for 2 more flicks with $250k and $400k paydays! And yes ... that's before bonuses.

Blake Anderson from “Workaholics” is not a morning person … at least that’s the reason he’s giving for mumbling through his spaced out 6 AM interview for his perfectly titled movie “Dope.”

The bagel toting Blake went on a local station in Cincinnati to promo his upcoming movie but it was a complete disaster from the first word ... to the curse words he eventually slurred on the air -- before the anchor pulled the plug.

Blake had a bunch of excuses too -- including lack of sleep, and the Golden State Warriors. He later tweeted that he didn't get home from the bar until 3 AM. Makes sense.

Check out the vid. Highlarious.

Clinton Portis says he didn't blow his entire NFL fortune -- even though he reportedly owes more than $1 million to creditors -- claiming his money issues stem from a bad business deal but he's still "doing fine."

The long story short ... Portis says he's still dealing with the financial fallout from a bad investment deal in 2008 ... where he sank a ton of cash into a casino that ultimately went bankrupt.

Portis -- along with several other former NFL players -- later sued a financial adviser who allegedly duped them into investing in the first place.

"This been ongoing since 2011, 2012 ... we just gotta go thru the court process," Portis tells us. "There's nothing else I can do. My lawyers are currently dealing with this."

Portis continues ... "At the time I was the biggest name and had the deepest pockets. Now, they're trying to hold me solely responsible for what was a bad business deal involving a lot of different people."

Now, Portis reportedly owes more than $1 million to various creditors -- including $450k in taxes, $287k to the MGM Grand in Vegas and has other issues with real estate and car loans.

"My lawyers are on top of it," Portis says ... "I'm still eating. Look at my Instagram. I'm not starving. I'm gaining weight."

A ticket to a Chris Brown concert buys you some serious life lessons from Breezy himself, who stopped his El Paso show to vent about baby mama drama.

“Girls – they don’t get your money, “ Breezy told the fellas in the crowd, “Get your money but be smart, man. Everybody be smart.”

Translation: keep it in your pants if you don’t want to dish out child support checks.

Brown’s been at odds with his baby mama Nia Guzman over child support for their one-year-old daughter Royalty. She allegedly wanted $15k a month ... six times more than the previous monthly check.

Check out Chris' pearls of wisdom -- which include comparing himself to President Obama.
