No, that's not LH's or KR's or FA's salary!
That's what MS makes as a retiree, just with endorsements.


Despite no longer competing in Formula One, Michael Schumacher has ensured his financial security for the years ahead. [that's SUCH a ridiculous way of putting it - as if he wasn't already financially secure up the wazoo!]

The German daily Bild-Zeitung reports that a raft of sponsorship deals guarantee the retired seven time world champion a 35 million euros income over the next seven years.


That'll definitely bump him over the 1 billion $ mark in the next few years.

No different to Michael Jordan

Yes Jordan is the man when it come's to endorsement's in the US along with Tiger Woods. Pertaining to Schumi I read an article that he was making in access of $100M a year just from Ferrari, I dont know if it's true but for year's he was the worlds highest earning athelete.

$100M it's the total of Ferrari and sponsorship..

Your thread title says 35 million Euros per year, but the article in your post says 35 million euros over 7 years. This conflict made my Commodore 64 crash.

I'm pretty sure that 'income' is meant to mean per year. Why else would they report peanuts like 5 million per year?

Yah Shumi make's 10 time's that on interest alone.

[madbrad]

I didn't say it made ME crash. I said it made the Commodore 64 crash.

[certom]

I dont think any of us do bud it just make's for interesting info or conversation. I personaly enjoy reading the Forbes 500 "Richest People" each year because I find it motivating and inspiring.
