1. David Beckham (Football Player)
Last but not least on our luxurious life of world class athletes list is the football legend, David Beckham. Beckham and his wife, Victoria “Posh Spice” Beckham, have a combined over $700 million net worth. It exceeds the Queen’s net worth.
Even that he has retired, his cash just keeps flowing in. He is currently making around $70 million per year. Most of his income comes from endorsement and business with his partner, Simon Fuller.
Remember Beckingham Palace? It was Beckham’s mansion in Hertfordshire, England. He sold it in 2012 for $15 million when he moved to U.S. Now he is back in Europe, living in a $46 million home in London.
Beckham also has a fine taste in art. He has spent over $40 million in art collection mostly from notable British artists. He also owns a vine yard in Napa Valley since 2008.
