Ronaldo earned $108 million (£81.5 million) in the last 12 months, according to
Forbes, making him one of the highest-paid sports stars in the world.
Almost half of that income ($47 million, £35.5 million) was from endorsement
deals with companies like Tag Heuer, Herbalife, and Nike.
Ronaldo's new deal with Nike will reportedly pay him over £19 million per year
for the rest of his life. At that rate, the deal will reach £800 million ($1 billion) in
total value when Ronaldo is 73 years old.
He also has deals with companies like Castrol, Samsung, and KFC.
It's no surprise that Ronaldo earns such a high price for his endorsements —
with over 130 million followers on Instagram, 122 million on Facebook, and 72
million more on Twitter, he's the most popular athlete on the planet.
The sponsorship deals are on top of his new mega-contract with Juventus,
which will pay him $138 million over four years — and he'll likely make even
more money in bonuses.
Despite being 33 years old, Juventus also paid US$117 million in the transfer
fee just to acquire the footballing legend.
So what does he spend his money on? One of Ronaldo's biggest hobbies is cars.
He drives a $300,000 (£207,000) Lamborghini Aventador, along with his
Maserati (pictured).
He also reportedly owns a Bentley, a Porsche, and a Mercedes, among others.
In March 2019, Ronaldo added a $360,000 Rolls Royce to his collection, a car
that only the world's best and richest players have been able to get their hands
on.
He's not always careful with them, though. In 2009 he crashed a $320,000
(£221,000) Ferrari in Manchester, where he used to play. But it looks like he
has replaced it.
He lives in a $7.1 million (£5 million) villa in La Finca — an exclusive community
in Madrid built by architect Joaquin Torres.
Speaking of property, in 2015 he reportedly dropped $18.5 million (£13 million)
on an apartment in Manhattan's Trump Towers.
He opened a gorgeous, football-themed hotel in his hometown of Madeira,
Portugal.
He's also been spotted wearing a $160,000 Jacob and Co. watch — a perk of
having an endorsement deal with the company
More recently though, he has a new deal with Tag Heuer and posted a photo
wearing theie $20,200 Carrera Heuer-02T
Ronaldo even liked a wax statue of himself so much that he reportedly paid
nearly $30,000 to have one made that he could keep.
The original is at Madrid's Museum of Wax and Ronaldo reportedly provides a
hair stylist who shows up once a month to the museum to make sure the
hairstyle is current. Presumably he does the same with the statue at his home.
Rumors of the couple's engagement have swirled after Rodriguez was spotted
at the World Cup sporting an impressive ring.
The ring is not small.
Ronaldo is also a fashion aficionado.
In fact he's just as comfortable in expensive suits as he is in a football kit.
He has modeled for Armani, and has an underwear line coming out with
designer Richard Chai.
Since then, Ronaldo has established his own fashion brand — CR7 — that
carries everything from cleats, to denim, to underwear and even fragrances.
He has also endorsed a company with a controversial investment practice in
which a large percentage of investors lose money.
And he was reportedly fined $21.8 million in a Spanish tax evasion case. He had
been accused of diverting income to a tax haven in the British Virgin Islands.
And he was reportedly paid $22 million to not appear in a film being made by
Martin Scorsese because the subject of the film didn't want the footballer in the
movie.
But he still wants to be a movie star after his soccer career is over. He certainly
has plenty of practice in commercials.
And he will reportedly be starring in his own Facebook reality series. He will
make $10 million in the deal and it even involves Tom Brady.
With all of his fortune, Ronaldo also does a great deal of charity, including a
donation of $165,000 (£114,000) to a Portuguese cancer centre and $83,000
(£57,000) to fund a 10-year-old fan's brain surgery.
