5. Cristiano Ronaldo
This Portuguese footballer has won the hearts of millions – and has the money to show for it. By the time he was just 22 years old, he was already one of the highest ranked players in the world and has only been doing better since. While Ronaldo is quite famously generous with his money, donating millions to charity and different causes, it has little to put a dent in his ever-climbing net worth. At the time of his 2009 transfer from Manchester United to Real Madrid, he was the most expensive player in the world as the trade was valued at $132 million – Ronaldo was still under 25 years old at the time! Now 31 years old, Ronaldo is reportedly worth $310 million.
