1. Floyd Mayweather (boxing) - R1. 276 billion...none of which is including endorsements…
We don’t need to explain why this boxing legend’s nickname is Money. He splurges on everything and anything he wants and isn’t afraid to boast about it. Um, Floyd how about using your wealth to end world hunger? Yes, no, maybe?
