Lionel Messi
Quote:
I may be reading that wrong...but I think it says his 21.2 million a year is tax free...?? The team paying him pays the income taxes?? This guy makes a lot of money! He is probably the best at what he does. I'm not excited about his contract as the fact that the team picks up his income tax. Is that the case with any other sport? I see 21.2 million a year...I figure he still has to pay taxes. When I see a baseball player making a million a year... I've always thought they still must pay taxes on a million. so actually, Mr. Messi makes an equivalent of 47.7 million a year PLUS endorsements....but over half go to taxes Soccer....er...football(?)....has become much more lucrative than I would have thought.
