That’s Baller: Soccer Star Cristiano Ronaldo Rents Yacht For $200,000 A Week

Lifestyles of the rich and famous are lavish, extravagant, and sometimes out of this world. While many have grown accustomed to seeing wealthy athletes from the NBA, NFL, and MLB, some tend to forget how popular and lucrative soccer is on a global scale.

Portuguese soccer player, Cristiano Ronaldo,  is considered one of the best players of all time. On the 2019 Forbes list of highest paid athletes, Ronaldo landed the number two spot, beating Russell Wilson and Lebron James, who both placed within the top ten. With an estimated $65 million salary and $44 million in endorsements, there’s no limit on what he can afford to spend.

Ronaldo is reportedly sailing the French Riviera with his children and girlfriend, Georgiana Rodriguez, on the super yacht,  “Africa 1” which rents at $200,000 per week. The yacht is designed for entertaining featuring a host of amenities including, six cabins, a sun-decked jacuzzi, gym, and a movie theater. This well-earned vacation comes right after leading his team to another championship win, however, not without controversy. The star is reportedly facing a rape allegation in a lawsuit that has gone to the federal courts.
