He shares the spot with 15 other people, including producer Haim Saban—co-creator of the Power Rangers franchiseคำพูดจาก เว็บตรงสล็อต. As for others on the list, coming at the top is Tesla CEO Elon Musk with a net worth of $251 billion, while Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is No. 2 with $161 billion.
Throughout his career as what many considered to be the greatest NBA player of all time, Jordan won six championship titles with the Chicago Bulls and earned a salary of $90 million, Forbes reported.
"My innate personality is to win at all costs," Jordan said in the 2020 Netflix documentary The Last Dance, which followed his career. "If I have to do it myself, I'm going to do it."

In addition to his paychecks from his regular job, Jordan also received $2.4 billion (pre-tax) from Nike and other corporate partners such as Hanes and Gatorade, Forbes reported.
Overall, the athlete's net worth has tripled since 2014. According to Forbes, he increased it to $3 billion due to annual royalty checks from Nike—totaling about $260 million over the past fiscal year—and a deal signed in August to sell a majority stake in the Charlotte Hornets, which valued the NBA franchise at $3 billion.
Jordan has also donated part of his incredible wealth to charitable and political causes. In 2020, he donated $100 million in support of the Black Lives Matter movement. This past February, on his 60th birthday, he donated $10 million to Make-A-Wish Foundation in what marked the largest individual contribution in the charity's history.
