$1.2B. $40M NBA salary → billion-dollar empire. Dodgers, Starbucks, insurance.
Net worth: $1.2 billion. Johnson earned $40 million in NBA salary — a rounding error on his current wealth. He built Magic Johnson Enterprises, which has invested in Starbucks franchises (sold for $200 million), movie theaters (a 12-theater chain in underserved communities), life insurance (EquiTrust, $3.6 billion in assets), and sports teams. He co-owns the Los Angeles Dodgers ($130 million investment, now worth $5 billion), LAFC (MLS), and the Los Angeles Sparks (WNBA). Johnson is proof that athlete-turned-businessman can outperform Wall Street.
