Michael Jordan – $2.1 Billion
Michael Jordan is mostly known as a basketball player, but the money he made by playing basketball is far less than what he’s made as a businessman! Today, he is said to be worth $2.1 billion. While playing for the NBA, he’s speculated to have earned a bit more than $90 million.
One of Jordan’s most profitable ventures has, of course, been his deal with Nike. In addition to that, he also has contracts with Gatorade and Hanes. Jordan owns a $15-million house in Chicago with a 56,000-square-foot interior and is the primary owner of the Charlotte Hornets.
