Tiger Woods success has made him a very rich man. There is no question if he is a millionaire, but Tiger Woods has recently accomplished a level of wealth that is scarce in the current stage of the economy. According to Forbes magazine the prolific golfer has topped $1 billion in career earnings. With endorsements from Nike, Tag Huer, Gatorade, and income from his own business ventures. Mr. Woods has accumulated a great deal of wealth off the golf course. By, winning this year’s Fed-Ex Cup title, Woods earned a $10 million bonus, which put him over the $1 billion mark in his career. The feat is impressive in itself, but the crazy thing is, Tiger Woods is only 33 years young with a lot more golf in his tank. Tiger Woods has without a doubt transcended the face of golf and it’s safe to say that this is only the first billion for him.
