Conor McGregor sportif le mieux payé au monde devant Messi et Ronaldo
Avec 180 millions de dollars de revenus depuis un an, la superstar des arts martiaux mixtes (MMA) Conor McGregor est le sportif le mieux payé au monde, selon le magazine économique Forbes. L’Irlandais devance les footballeurs Lionel Messi (130 millions) et Cristiano Ronaldo (120 millions).

L’Irlandais a pourtant annoncé qu’il arrêtait le MMA le 6 juin 2020. Il s’est ensuite incliné par KO technique face à l’Américain Dustin Poirier, le 24 janvier 2021. Et, entretemps, le 10 septembre 2020, il avait été arrêté en Corse suite à une plainte visant des faits d’exhibition et d’agression sexuelles (affaire classée sans suite en avril 2021).
America’s Richest Self-Made Women
More women are creating new businesses and amassing fortunes than ever before. As a result, Forbes has expanded our ranking of the nation’s wealthiest self-made women to 80 ceiling crashers, one third more than a year ago. Each of these overachievers has blazed her own trail.

Some, like the entrepreneurs behind toilet spray Poo-Pourri and vegan makeup line Thrive Causemetics, created fresh products while others like Belinda Johnson, Airbnb’s chief operating officer, joined tech juggernauts as they were taking flight.
Still others, including musician and beauty entrepreneur Rihanna and reality TV star-turned makeup mogul Kylie Jenner, have figured out ways to monetize their fame, fans and social media followers. At the top of the ranks for the second year in a row is Diane Hendricks, who added $2.1 billion to her net worth in the past year, thanks to record sales of $10.5 billion at her roofing giant, ABC Supply.
List members range in age from 21 to 92, and are worth a combined $81.3 billion. The minimum net worth to make Forbes’ fifth annual ranking of these women is $225 million. A record 25 are billionaires, one more than last year.
