August 9, 2016 by Kristen Beckman
The world’s best athletes are gathering in Rio de Janeiro in hopes of bringing home gold during the 2016 Summer Olympics.
For many of these gifted athletes, competition is a labor of love that takes more than it gives in terms of finances. But ever since the Olympics allowed professional athletes to compete, many of its competitors are high profile and high-net-worth athletes.
LifeHealthPro took a look at the top athletes scheduled to compete in this year’s Olympics and used net worth data from TheRichest.com to determine which athletes going for gold already have a bit tucked away. Not surprisingly, most of the athletes ranked on this list are professionals, particularly from the NBA and PGA.
