43. Kobe Bryant ($50 million)

Athlete

The NBA's third all-time leading scorer retired with $680 million in salary and endorsements during his two decade career, the most ever for a team athlete during his or her playing career. Recently, he's been focusing on building a portfolio of companies: he invested $4-6 million in 2014 to buy more than 10% of emerging sports drink BodyArmor; last year, he bought a stake in Derek Jeter's media platform, The Players' Tribune.
