Wayne Rooney, Michael Jordan, Michael Schumacher, Mike Tyson: who raised most money at retiring?

Wayne Rooney has had his farewell from football after the announcement of his retirements from the sport. The English striker has mentioned he would leave the field to become the new coach of Derby County. After a very successful career playing in several World Cups and winning lots of titles, he can say he has enjoyed a good life.

According to Celebrity Net Worth, when Wayne Rooney checks his bank account in his computer or phone, he will find $170 million after having salaries of around $26 million in his best moments. For example, he crossed the Atlantic Ocean in 2017 to sign a three-year-deal with DC United that reported $30 million among his contract and endorsing companies like Nike, Nokia, Coca-Cola, and Ford.

NBA legend Michael Jordan could count around $94 million on his bank account by the time he announced his second and last retirement from the sport, as reported by Spotrac. However, his big fortune was raised in his life after his career. The creation of his own brand and several revenues for projects like the documentary “The last dance”, he has raised almost 2 billion dollars.

Somebody who possibly reached the top and could not handle it is boxing star Mike Tyson, the one who is possibly not retired yet despite having experienced lots of new adventures outside of the ring. Now his net worth only counts $10 million, after a highly successful career in boxing in which he has allegedly raised near $430, as per Celebrity Net Worth.

The best?

In the world of motorsports there is possibly nobody as successful in terms of finances as well as of titles as Formula 1 seven times champion Michael Schumacher was. Before all his net worth was devoted to take care of his health after his skiing accident by the end of 2013, The German racing driver had raised around $800 million as per DriveTribe.
