Legendary Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps. His prowess and physical stamina are unparalleled. He’s one of the biggest and most recognizable faces in the modern Olympic world, and it shows.
Phelps, who retired after the 2016 Rio Olympics, had a net worth of over $50 million. When compared to some of the other athletes on this list may not seem like much, but this man has the ability and potential to rack up even more in the future!
