LeBron James has a net worth of $1.2 billion. Much of that wealth comes from three main ventures. First, in 2011, LeBron invested $6.5 million to acquire a 2% stake in Liverpool FC. Today, the team is valued at $5.37 billion, meaning LeBron’s stake is now worth about $107.4 million. Second, in 2008, he received a 1% stake in Dr. Dre’s headphone company Beats in exchange for promoting the brand. When Apple bought Beats for $3 billion, LeBron made $30 million, making it one of his most profitable investments. Third, LeBron invested $1 million in Blaze Pizza in 2012. The company has grown to 340 locations in 41 states and is now valued at $250 million. This investment may have increased the value of his initial investment to between $35 million and $40 million. These three investments were crucial to building LeBron James' impressive net worth.
