Ronaldinho: the unexpected businesses that got him out of bankruptcy
The Brazilian idol was going through a bad financial situation after his retirement, and this is how he recovered.
To be a soccer legend is not an easy thing that anyone can manage. Some top players couldn’t manage the pressure of being at the top of the world, with fame, millions and an incredible responsibility. One of those who committed many mistakes when he was at the top was Ronaldinho.
The Brazilian idol was one of the most emblematic players in the 2000s, when he played in some of the best European clubs in the world as FC Barcelona, AC Milan or Paris Saint-Germain. The historical no. 10 gained fortunes with contracts signed, transfers and sponsorships.
But many years after his retirement, Dinho had just a little amount of money left. The reason was that he wasted it all in parties, excesses, and he didn’t work to reinvest it. Going to prison changed his life, and after he could leave, paying a bail of more than $200,000 dollars, he transformed into a businessman.
Ronaldinho was contracted to be the image of the remodeling of the stadium of Atlético Mineiro, started his own music studio, was named Brazilian tourism ambassador, launched his own brands of gin and wine and is now working on the documentary of his life. A complete change in his life to recover millions and escape from bankruptcy.
