MIKE TYSON – EST. $10 MILLION

We are not ready for a rumble, but the younger version of Mike Tyson always was. He was a former world-renowned boxer who became known in the late 1980s. He had an interesting journey to being a champ. Due to his speech difficulty, Tyson often had fights with those who made fun of his voice. His stay in a detention center gave him a leg-up to be a boxer with the help of some people, including Cus D’Amatto, who did not just train him but also became his guardian after his mother’s passing at the age of 16.

Tyson went on to become one of the most recognizable boxers in history. This Olympic gold medalist earned $430 million, a sum of his boxing salary and endorsement deals. If adjusted for today’s inflation, that would be $700 million. You won’t need a mortgage and other types of loans if you have that. Unfortunately, he squandered most of that money and left him a net worth of $10 million.
