Michael Phelps is God, Superman and Brad Pitt all rolled into one.
And now he can trade in on that image for lots and lots of money. Even before the eight medals heard round the world, Phelps earned a cool $5 mil for endorsements with companies like Visa and Speedo.
With the Olympics conquered, that number is expected to skyrocket. "He may be at $30, $40, $50 million a year in endorsements after all this is said and done," said David Harrow of the National Sports Lawyers Association.
But it’s not all about the benjamins. With fame and fortune, Phelps has also been raking in the odd offers and requests. The Wall Street Journal offers us a peak into the perks that may be coming Mikey’s way:
- A man in Omaha, Neb. Wants to build a statue of the swimmer with the rock hard body
- Several book and movie deals have cropped up
- A dog food idea was pitched, in honor of Phelp’s love for his British bulldog
- Ideas for bobblehead dolls, acrylic paintings, commemorative coins, car rims and tuxedos have all rolled in
- Free pizza for a year and even free dental work has been offered
- Sexy starlets want introductions
What’s a few free pizzas when your net worth may reach $50 million?
But your face on a doggy chow bag? Priceless.
