Slynation: Trash... FYI Cristiano Ronaldo took a pay cut to join Juventus. He was earning more at Real Madrid. Now before you counter me do your research if not I'll post more than 4 links to back up my claims. 3 Likes |

But they said footballers are richer than musicians, how come we are having the first football billionaire now ?? |
Re: Cristiano Ronaldo Is Football 1st Billionaire - Forbes by Dalil6: 3:30pm On Jun 05, 2020 |
Hightser: Average footballers are richer than the average musicians. Right now there's only 1 active musician richer than Ronaldo or Messi and he didn't get it from making music alone. 1 Like |

Is he a billionaire ? OR has he earned 1 billion dollars? There is a difference. His net worth is about $500 million but he has earned over 1 billion dollars over the course of his playing career. |
Re: Cristiano Ronaldo Is Football 1st Billionaire - Forbes by wman(m): 3:42pm On Jun 05, 2020 |
Hightser: He is not a billionaire. His net worth is $500 million. But he had earned over $1 billion for almost two decades that he has been playing football. And he has spent a large part of that money. |
Re: Cristiano Ronaldo Is Football 1st Billionaire - Forbes by wman(m): 3:43pm On Jun 05, 2020 |
KenBen217: Forbes said she is worth $916 million. That is very close to being a billionaire. And Ronaldo is far from being a billionaire. He is not a billionaire. His net worth is $500 million. But he had earned over $1 billion for almost two decades that he has been playing football. And he has spent a large part of that money. |
Re: Cristiano Ronaldo Is Football 1st Billionaire - Forbes by wman(m): 3:44pm On Jun 05, 2020 |
WriterNig: Forbes never called him a billionaire. It's all these local news that are peddling misleading headlines. |
Re: Cristiano Ronaldo Is Football 1st Billionaire - Forbes by Trupz: 3:45pm On Jun 05, 2020 |
GBOKASINCHA: So you mean all his investments over time could not have yielded over a billion dollars. You reason am na!. What you've got up there is his aggregated earnings in his professional career. Trust me, returns from his biz ventures and assets would be over a billion dollars |

Dalil6:That's not the point bro, the point is being a billionaire, either you made the money from music or not. On my own part, I have always argued that musicians are richer than footballers, so far they are placed in par. |
Re: Cristiano Ronaldo Is Football 1st Billionaire - Forbes by Bobby4090: 4:07pm On Jun 05, 2020 |
wman: If he wasn't called a billionaire it means that Tiger Woods, P Diddy, Mayweather etc were not called billionaires too. It now means that Forbes billionaires list is fraudulent. Your argument does not hold. Why is it that only when it comes to Ronaldo that haters and Messi worshippers like you will start sulking. Wake up man. The more you hail other peoples achievement and hard work the more your own doors will open. 1 Like |
Re: Cristiano Ronaldo Is Football 1st Billionaire - Forbes by wman(m): 4:18pm On Jun 05, 2020 |
Bobby4090: Mayweather and Tiger Woods were the first sportsmen to earn $1 billion from their career. They are not billionaires. Woods has earned more than $1.4 billion from sponsors since he turned pro in 1996, according to Forbes. His personal net worth was estimated to be $800 million as of 2018. This is from Forbes. |

Re: Cristiano Ronaldo Is Football 1st Billionaire - Forbes by Bobby4090: 4:25pm On Jun 05, 2020 |
wman: Mr fake news, why don't you show us the link to the place that said his net worth is just $500m. Paste it here let us see. And also paste the net worth of other people that Forbes mentioned too. Or is it from your own wishful imagination? Just imagine your daft argument, that because he has been playing football for long that he has spent a large part of his earnings. Have you forgotten what investments are? Ronaldo has several CR7 brands, has CR7 hotels and other businesses too that are flourishing. If he invested $100m of his earnings several years ago do you know what those businesses will be worth now? I bought shares in a company several years ago that now gives me dividend close to my monthly salary. Its money making principle. Grow up man and learn the secrets of how to make wealth rather than expose your ignorance here. 1 Like |

Bobby4090: So much ignorance in one post. Google is there for you. Tiger Woods, Floyd Mayweather Jr. and C. Ronaldo have all earned over a billion each from sports. None of them is a billionaire. That $1 billion is the sum of all the money he has earned from when he was a youth. He has since spent a lot of it on taxes, fashion, depreciating assets like cars and other things. No point in arguing further with you. Google C.Ronaldo net worth and see for yourself. https://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-athletes/richest-soccer/ronaldo-net-worth/?amp=1 https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.goal.com/en/amp/news/what-is-cristiano-ronaldos-net-worth-and-how-much-does-the/wpqwcm08p2o916g11efo6et6z |

2loadedguy:Bro from my own search Ronaldo has score more freekicks than even Pjanic. he also has completed more dribbles in a game than any other player in history. he has more headed goals than Drogba even did. Remember that was the Question the Moniker u quoted asked. not the one u are giving now |

Re: Cristiano Ronaldo Is Football 1st Billionaire - Forbes by Amungwele: 4:34pm On Jun 05, 2020 |
Maradonna and all his Laurels nko? Abi Ronaldinho. Oga there is life after football OK? C Ronaldo has proved over time that with different leagues that he's simply a great player, a good business man too. Messi should have attempted to play where any of those places you mentioned. Messi is a natural gifted player that why he makes playing football see so easy and effortless (am even a bigger fan of his than you) But C. Ronaldo, you just got to give it to this guy that despite all odds he's still standing and still pushing even Messi to Limits. Great players both of them. And congrats to him on his Billionaire feat paulolee: |
Re: Cristiano Ronaldo Is Football 1st Billionaire - Forbes by Bobby4090: 4:42pm On Jun 05, 2020 |
Let's assume Ronaldo made $1b all his life. From there he ate/spent/squandered $400m. Remaining $600m. He then invested $400m in his CR7 hotel brands, cloth brands and other businesses too. Remaining just $200m Those businesses over the years are flourishing and now worth double, that's like $800m. So how much is Ronaldo worth now? Simple. It's..... $200m savings from his football earnings. $800m from his business worth and profits. Thats how it works. 2 Likes |

Amungwele:am sorry but i dnt get ur arguments or wr u are coming from...all the greats players u mentioned dnt av the numbers of tropies messi have and am not sayin cr7 isn't good..all am saying is that being a billionaire is not a big deal because messi and neyma were almost there if not for the paycut caused by covid and also congrats to cr7 bt at the end of the day the comparison would still be who was the real GOAT and not the richest or first to strike gold because they are both rich and we dnt kno who may endup richer for now but they would always leave fans divided on that GOAT issue and thats my main point |
Re: Cristiano Ronaldo Is Football 1st Billionaire - Forbes by Dalil6: 4:54pm On Jun 05, 2020 |
Bobby4090: His earnings from his CR7 brand and other investments were not even included in the article. What made him a billionaire was just salary and other sponsorship deals and bonuses. So he'll be way over a billion by now. He's only 35, that's a good feat. 1 Like |

Bobby4090: Show me where Forbes called C.Ronaldo a billionaire. Show me where they called Mayweather a billionaire or Tiger Woods a billionaire. Just show me. Tiger Woods earned a total of $1 billion by 2009. Yet, his name has never been on Forbes billionaire list . Mayweather has made over a billionaire from boxing. Yet he had never been called a billionaire cos he spends it as he gets it. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.thesun.co.uk/sport/boxing/11461811/floyd-mayweather-career-earnings-parties-diamonds/amp/ Forbes never called C.

Bobby4090: Lol. Look at how you are calculating his money like you know how much he pays in taxes or you know how he spends money. Pulling figures out from the air. |

Dalil6: My dear, it's not just salary, sponsorship deals and bonus, others were included. Did you not read of how much he also made from Instagram and other social media advertising? |

wman: I started by saying lets assume. So its just an example. I had to do this cos u believe all money he spent were gone forever because they are on food and cars alone. You never reckoned with his several business investments that he has been doing over the years that multiply the capital too. |
