LeBron has a two percent stake in Liverpool since 2011.

He got a share after his marketing company, LRMR, joined joint venture with Fenway Sports Group as one of the partners.

Fenway is owned by Boston Red Sox owner John W Henry and chairman Tom Werner who bought Liverpool for 477 million dollars in October 2010.

The man who was elected 16 times to the NBA All-Star controlled two percent of Liverpool shares which he bought with a tag of 6.5 million dollars.

These investments gain profits many times for the player.

As of May 2019, Forbes estimates that Liverpool’s market value is at 2.13 billion dollars.

This number does not take into account the fantastic season 2019-2020 where the Reds won Premier League for the first time in 30 years.

As a result, LeBron’s two percent stake is now approximately 43.6 million dollars.

That is, the investment of players born December 30, 1984 has increased nearly seven times in the last nine years!

LeBron’s investment in Liverpool is just one of several portfolios.

In 2014, the player made more than 30 million dollars when Apple bought Beats by Dr. Dre.

He also made a 1 million dollar investment in a pizza restaurant chain called Blaze Pizza.

In 2018, the market value of the restaurant chain is estimated at 45 million dollars.

It is not surprising that LeBron James became one of the largest public figures in the world.

According to Celebrity Net Worth, LebRon’s net worth is estimated at 480 million dollars, or around 7 trillion rupiah.

The majority of this figure came through a four-year LeBron James contract worth 154 million dollars when he joined the Los Angeles Lakers in 2018.
