Cristiano Ronaldo is the first soccer player to become a billionaire, according to Bloomberg's Billionaire's Index. The Portuguese superstar is reportedly worth $1.4 billion.
Ronaldo's net worth is largely due to the high salary he earns at Saudi Arabia club Al-Nassr. He's paid a world-record $225 million per year by the club and makes another $50 million in off-field earnings, according to Forbes, which earlier this year named him the highest-paid athlete for the third year in a row.
