Shaquille O’Neal | $400 Million

Shaquille O’Neal is not just a legend, but he is one of basketball’s wealthiest players. According to a recent Audacy poll, he is in the fifth position on the list (alongside Vinnie Johnson). With that in mind, there has been much curiosity about the true nature of his bank account.

Between his residuals, different endorsement deals, and his NBA commentary positions, the superstar athlete-turned-sportscaster earns $60 million each year. He made $292 million in salary alone during his basketball career. Shaq, on the other hand, is involved in a lot more than that. He also owns more than 100 car washes and 40 24-hour fitness centers, as well as multiple Auntie Anne’s Pretzels. As he noted online, his primary source of income is the several brands he owns. If O’Neal’s track record is any indicator, his business career is still in its early stages. With a pocket full of $400 million, he surely needs the help of a financial advisor.
