Messi vs. Cristiano Ronaldo: who invests his millions better?
The investments of the vast majority of soccer players are of a banking and financial nature, small but diversified investments. Although some have stakes in the real estate sector.
While Messi earned large royalties in his years as an athlete through the contracts he signed for his ability and talent on the field, he also added large amounts of money to his accounts by being the face of brands such as Huawei, Mastercard, Pepsi, Gillete, Turkish Airlines and YPF, among others.
The star of the Argentine National Team made a large part of his fortune through real estate investment. The Barcelona player founded with his father, Jorge Messi, the company Limecu. According to its website, the company is dedicated to the purchase, lease and sale of rural and urban land.
Cristiano Ronaldo's career in the world of sport is very difficult to match, but it is also difficult to match in the world of business and economics. He has won everything, but he still wants more. That was his goal when he arrived at Juventus and, game after game, he continues to demonstrate an ambition beyond compare.
The Portuguese has taken advantage of his transcendence in soccer to create a legacy that places him year after year at the top of the main lists that measure the amount of money managed by sportsmen. Although his ostentation is one of the characteristics he is most criticized for, he has also been named the most charitable star in the world.
