Linda there is a marked difference between wealth and income. If someone is the 'highest earning' athlete, he is not necessarily the 'richest'. Even a multi-millionaire will soon go broke if he spends like a billionaire.
Messi oga
I no fit talk.
Wooow...I hope i'll make dis list one-day.
Lool.. Why won't my dads age mate claim 17?
OKORO UPGRADED**
Stupendously rich yet live a simple lifestyle
Like the lifestyle of messi. Living legend
I notice every time I open a post to read comments, this @lwkmd_naija is always d first to comment, ending each comment wt linda observe. But why? You don't have a job? Or u automated it someway? Or u just want to get noticed like u have alredi achieved then get 100k during linda's giveaway? If d case is lack of job, do u have any IT knowlegde? Cos I tink I can give u an 80k job monthly
Me too take home three thouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuusand naira per week.
See moni! Na wa oo
G this is just about last year earnings. It is not their net worth. On overall worth ronaldo is richer
No offence but this list does not make messi richer than ronaldo, it just states that messi earned more In 2014, it is not net worth. Based on net worth. Ronaldo is about 2million richer.
See shading
@King...Thaaaaaannnkkkk Yoooouuuuu. U literally need to be on Linda's blog all day to pull that off. Linda observe, Linda take note.. the hustle is real Men...The hustle is real!.
