Nobody has ever made more money playing baseball than Alex Rodriguez. Over the course of 22 seasons in the majors, A-Rod earned nearly a half-billion dollars in salary ($448 million), not to mention endorsements and investments.
Now that he’s retired, A-Rod is all in on turning that money into more money. He appears on Shark Tank and uses his investment vehicle, A-Rod Corp, to back everything from real estate developments, to Snapchat, to a protein shake bottle created by the Gronkowski brothers.
His latest venture is an attempt to buy the Mets (with many other investors, including his fiancée, Jennifer Lopez, and a bunch of other pro athletes).
