Shaquille O’Neal is worth $400 million thanks to a massive business empire built through smart investments and diverse ventures dating to his early years in the NBA. The former Boston Celtic heeded advice from his stepfather to be wise with his money, and he also received guidance from Amazon founder Jeff Bezos.
The Big Aristotle invested early in Google and Apple, reaping significant rewards, and he also made a successful investment in Ring, which was later acquired by Amazon for $1 billion. His business empire includes food chains, car washes and partnerships with companies such as Papa John’s.
He has ventured into fitness with ownership of 40 24-Hour Fitness gyms, and the list goes on and on.
