Kanye West Says He's Rich Enough to Buy Houses for Kim Kardashian, but Needs Money to 'Bring Beautiful Ideas to the World'
And the Kanye West saga continues.
Just one day after the rapper claimed that he was $53 million dollars in personal debt, even asking Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg to invest in his ideas, West admits he's still rich enough to support his family. He just wants to other people to invest money in his dreams to "bring beautiful ideas to the world."

"I just feel rich people are always too cool to ask for help trying to impress each other at dinner parties," West writes on Twitter, adding: "I want to help the world and I need help to do it. I am an artist and I care about humanity."

What does he need all this money for? It's all for his art.
"Yes I am personally rich and I can buy furs and houses for my family, but I need access to more money in order to bring more beautiful ideas to the world," the rapper revealed.

Although it's unclear how West plans to use any of the investments he receives, one thing is for certain -- he doesn't plan to use his personal funds on these projects.
"If I spent my money on my ideas I could not afford to take care of my family. I am in a place that so many artist end up," he writes. "Also for anyone that has money they know the first rule is to use other people's money."

West goes on to explain that he feels that his celebrity status takes away from people fully understanding his purpose.
I could not have done the MSG without Adidas but world, what I'm telling you is that was just a small sketch for what I will bring you.

There are people who support artist and philanthropist

and I think the idea of being a celebrity a lot of times blocks the understanding of what my purpose is.

I am of service to the world with my art and I just want to serve more.

"I know I confuse you guys sometimes but please bare with me," he adds, calling the vision "a God dream."
"But if the self proclaimed cockiest person in the world can lay his personal business on the line then please people see my heart," West continues.
