Title: Bodybuilders and Net Worth
Post by: BRO on August 22, 2013, 01:04:34 PM: Seeing how elite athletes are usually getting paid more per season in other sports than bodybuilders make in contest winnings over a career, which bodybuilders (past or present) have used bodybuilding as a stepping stone to increase their net worth?

Using two names, it's a slam dunk. Go for "Flex Grapefruit"

Having 4 car payments, a mortgage, and loan payments for your $15,000 watch isn't net worth. HTH
