Kobe Bryant – $600 Million
In the world of sports, Kobe Bryant was a star. One of the most influential basketball players in American history, Bryant was on the poster of every significant endorsement, be it ‘Nike,’ ‘Sprite,’ or ‘Lenovo.’ Bryant’s salary as an NBA player was no small amount. He is reported to have made around $328 million playing for the Los Angeles ‘Lakers’ alone. The prodigy sportsman also won two Olympic gold medals in 2008 and 2012.
Bryant made several intelligent business investments, most notably in the drink ‘BodyArmor.’ His tragic passing at the age of 41 left his legal heirs with a fortune of $600 million.
