MICHAEL PHELPS: $60M
Michael Phelps, a nearly invincible athlete, made history for Olympic gold medals, capturing 23 at the age of just 32. As the recipient of a larger number of medals than 161 countries, Phelps, who retired from competitive swimming in 2016, did so. With hundreds of lucrative sponsorship contracts, he is as much a celebrity money-making machine as he is an athlete. His wealth was estimated at $60 million as of 2019, an amount that enabled the swimmer to move back in comfort in a 6,000-square-foot mansion in Scottsdale, Arizona, his adopted homeland.
