Life Is Unfair: Cristiano Ronaldo Makes $975,000 For Every Instagram Post - NINE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS
Cristiano Ronaldo apparently earns more from being an Instagram influencer than he does from playing soccer for Juventus. Ronaldo has taken home $47.8 million from paid Instagram posts alone over the past year, according to a Hopper HQ study published on Buzz Bingo, which lists the 34-year-old as the platform's highest earner. His annual wage packet at Juventus, for whom he signed for in 2018, is $34 million according to Goal.com — $14.7 million less than he receives for his posts on Instagram.
The world is a crazy place. This era of social media is fucking wild. The fact that Cristiano Ronaldo, one of the best soccer players in the world, makes far less money on the field than he does on Instagram is just impossible to explain. He makes more on Instagram than actual models or music artists like Kylie Jenner, Selena Gomez, and Emily Ratajkowski. I didn't realize he has more Instagram followers than anyone else on the planet.
This guy makes $975,000 per post. PER POST. What an asshole. He probably doesn't even know he has an Instagram. When do you think is the last time he's opened that app on his phone? 7 years ago? He might not even know he has the app. He has a whole team to post the right things and get the right picture. It's just all handed to him.
Imagine you could wipe away your gambling debt with just one Instagram post? I'm just talking like $2,000. A normal degenerate's hole. Imagine you were Dave and could knock out a $200k terrible week with just one sponsored post. How easy must life be? And then you also have a smokeshow model wife to put the icing on the cake.
Ronaldo gets to home to that and all the money in the world. I've got my right hand, the diet of a 10 year old, and a hopeful +9.5 Jets pending ticket to get my week started. The human lottery is something.
