There are few people that make it onto a Forbes list, and there are few people who make it into the world of professional sports as an athlete. To make it into both of those categories requires an unthinkable amount of savvy and dedication, a lifetime of hard work and smart decisions regarding investments, sponsorship choices, management and much more.
It’s a rare achievement to reach the financial top of professional athletes, but in a June 10 list, Forbes has compiled the top 100 people who have done so.

Kevin Durant | $54.1 Million
2016 Mercedes-AMG GT S
As a fan of the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG, it only makes sense that Durant would own the model’s successor.

Lionel Messi | $73.8 Million
2005 Maserati MC12
Lionel Messi has already confirmed that he’s a fan of Maserati, and especially of his GranTurismo MC Stradale. But it’s hard to compete with the prestige of the MC12 – one of these would make a fine addition to his collection.

Cristiano Ronaldo | $79.6 Million
2015 McLaren P1
There doesn’t seem to be a particular type of fine car that Ronaldo has an interest in, but that’s not to say he doesn’t know a fine car when he sees it. He took a ride in the P1 and seemed to enjoy it, so perhaps it’s time to add one to his list.

Manny Pacquiao | $160 Million
1965 Icon D200 Dodge Crew Cab 4×4 Custom
He’s shown a penchant both for SUVs and high performance supercars, so a custom Dodge from ICON might be right up this boxing star’s alley.

Floyd Mayweather | $300 Million
