Yes I am sure he hit a billion in earnings over life of career as well. But remember guys FORBES is as FEDERAL as FEDERAL express. It's like MTV they pick and choose who they celebrate. And right now, Tiger Woods is good for thee pockets.

I recall reading that because of his residency in Switzerland his taxes were under $100k USD/year yet was making $80M + with Ferrari plus product endorcements, etc.  He continues to rake in huge sums working for Fiat/Ferrari and doesn't spend money on a big entourage like some.<br><br>In fact one time Ferrari driver Ulsterman, Eddie Irvine, was listed on The Times "Rich List" just last year being worth over 400 million British pounds . He owns property, clubs, auto franchise, et al. <br><br>A few years ago Forbes was touting Michael Jordan as likely going to be the 1st athlete billionaire. That never happened. Divorce, some bad investments, high taxes on that cash rich salary, lavish lifestyle, and an NBA career that didn't go on forever.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Spectacular Bid]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Aug 20th 2008 4:29PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Tiger Woods Will Be World's First Billionaire Athlete]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2008/08/19/tiger-woods-will-be-worlds-first-billionaire-athlete/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2008/08/19/tiger-woods-will-be-worlds-first-billionaire-athlete/</guid><description><![CDATA[Tiger is a legend.
