Shaun White Net Worth 2018 How He Keeps Making Millions

Shaun White Net Worth 2018 How He Keeps Making Millions Shaun White may be best known for his snowboarding and skateboarding skills, but the two-time Olympic gold medalist has also managed to parlay his athletic career into an impressive financial portfolio â€" becoming a millionaire before he turned 20 thanks to plentiful endorsement deals. Despite his high-flying lifestyle now, White didn’t grow up rich â€" his mother was a waitress and his dad worked at a water utility company in California, according to Fast Company. But his snowboarding career changed all that â€" and he now has dozens of endorsement deals worth million of dollars each, ranging from contracts with global corporations to more niche companies like GoPro. White, 31, changed talent agencies last year, moving from Creative Artists Agency to sign with the United Talent Agency, where he said he wants to “grow my various businesses.” Business savvy aside, White also knows how to have fun. He bought a Lamborghini at one point, but says he totaled it the first month he owned it. He also recently published his memoir, F*** It: I’m Here to Win, which includes journal entries, photographs and even art made by White. His longtime success as an athlete has earned him a massive net worth ranging between $20 million and $40 million â€" making him one of the richest winter Olympians â€" though it’s hard to nail down an exact figure. What we do know is that he’s been aggressively investing in real estate as well as other projects. Before White prepared to compete in the halfpipe final on Tuesday, allegations against him of sexual harassment resurfaced. White settled a 2016 lawsuit brought by a former drummer in his rock band that he “repeatedly sexually harassed her.” Here’s what we know about how White makes and spends his money: Real estate White may be known for his flips on mountains, but the extreme athlete has also made a name for himself buying and flipping some stunning real estate across the country. According to Variety, White put numerous properties up for sale in 2017 including: An Encinitas, Calif. house he put on the market for $7.8 million (and used to rent for up to $25,000 a month) His Hollywood Hills West mansion sold for $6.7 million this summer to Shark Tank‘s Robert Herjavec An East village penthouse in New York City that he put on the market for $2.8 million A four bedroom Carlsbad, Calif. house he sold for $1.075 million But he still has plenty more homes left to hang out in: A Park City, Utah condo A Malibu home for that rents for $17,500 a month A second Malibu home next door to the Point Dume rental that he bought for $10.75 million A newly purchased $1.6 million Laurel Canyon home Investments The “Flying Tomato” is one smart cookie â€" White purchased a minority stake in Mammoth Resorts, the company that runs Mammoth Mountain in 2016, reportedly making a “seven-digit” investment. That made him a part of owner of more than 4, 000 acres of land in California, according to the Los Angeles Times. The Times also reported Mammoth Resorts spent $38 million to purchase two Southern California ski resorts â€" Snow Summit and Bear Mountain â€"where White regularly practices.   2018 Olympics White took home his third gold medal for the men’s halfpipe competition at the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, meaning he’ll pocket a cool $37,500 â€" a 25% bump from the Rio Games and the highest prize money the United States Olympic Committee has ever awarded, according to the organization. And he’ll get to keep every penny thanks to Sen. Charles Schumer’s bill making Olympic earnings tax-exempt. Tuesday’s gold medal makes White the first-ever snowboarder to become a three-time Olympic champion and also marked a milestone for Team USA, which secured its 100th Winter Olympic gold medal. On top of his two Olympic gold medals, throughout his career White has also earned 15 gold medals and 23 medals at the X games. Endorsement deals After more than two decades on the slopes, he has a laundry list of sponsorships and endorsements for which he reportedly earns at least $2 million per deal, according to Forbes. His longest deal is with snowboard manufacturer Burton, which he signed with at just seven years old. He and his brother Jesse have designed everything from underwear to snowboarding boots for the brand. White also helped Oakley develop their first-ever signature goggles, which became one of their best sellers in the early 2000s, as well as collaborating with the brand to design one of their best-selling pairs of sunglasses. Additionally, he’s cemented deals with major corporations like Verizon, Target and HP, which tapped White to appeal to a younger audience in a series of commercials that also starred celebrities like Serena Williams and Jay-Z. He’s also recently inked endorsement deals with numerous other organizations including Beats by Dr. Dre, Red Bull, Ubisoft and Playstation â€" though it’s unclear how much he makes from these partnerships. Personal projects On top of the hefty endorsement deals, White owns a smartphone app called Downhill Dash and has released multiple video games. His first video game, “Shaun White Snowboarding,” â€" which became a franchise â€" came out in 2008 and sold more than 3 million copies, according to ESPN. White also became the majority owner in an international music and sports festival called Air + Style four years ago. And at age 29, White debuted a clothing line called WHT Space, a hands-on collaboration with Macy’s. Correction: The original version of this article incorrectly described Shaun White’s role in the purchase of two California ski resorts. White is a minority stakeholder in Mammoth Resorts, the company that spent $38 million to buy the resorts, he did not purchase them himself. It also misidentified ATT as a sponsor of his.

7 Signs Of Job Burnout (5 Ways To Fix It) - Work It Daily

7 Signs Of Job Burnout (5 Ways To Fix It) - Work It Daily Just like any other relationship, your relationship with your job is going to have its’ ups and downs. In some cases it can be clear the best solution is for the two of you to separate â€" meaning you will need to find a new job. In other cases, making a few changes to how you work can rekindle your passion for what you do, allowing you to keep your job and your sanity. Related: Burned Out? How To Take A Vacation Without Taking A Vacation You may not have any physical signs of job burnout. The list below highlights seven red flags that signal you may be overwhelmed and could benefit from making some changes. It’s Monday 10:00 AM and you can’t wait for Friday. Your meeting status: unprepared and uninterested. You’re more inspired to make an excuse than make a deadline. You day dream about getting sick so you have an excuse to stay home. You avoid people because you’re afraid of getting more work. People avoid you because they don’t want to hear about your workload. You use the 50/50 rule: you spend 50% of your time trying to figure out how to get out of 50% of your work. If these behaviors have become the norm for you instead of the exception, you may have started to think of yourself as a slacker. I’ve actually met very few people who are slackers, what I encounter are people who are bored, haven’t found a way to what they are passionate about and as a result feel stuck in a job they hate. Going into “slacker” mode is also a response to the frustration of being overworked, underemployed, underpaid and poorly managed. Good news: If you identify with any of the seven signs, there’s something you can do. Here’s a short list of practical things you can do shift out of neutral and move into drive mode. 1. Get Real Acknowledge how you are feeling about your work-life. Journal it, talk about it with someone you don’t have to censor yourself with, but stop holding it in. The more you try to ignore how you really feel, the more anxiety and frustration you will feel about your situation. The sooner you identify how you feel, the sooner you can address it. 2. Get Inspired Find a book, audio CD, or MP3 â€" something that tells someone else’s success story and read it or listen to it. The focus here is to connect with their ups and downs on their journey and the challenges they had to overcome to reach their goals. Let their success motivate you to press towards your vision despite how you feel right now. 3. Take Control Are there too many meetings and tasks on your to-do list? Become a guardian of your time and energy by mastering your schedule. Limit the number of meetings you have a day: if your limit is four meetings, then meeting number five that comes to your invite box gets declined or proposed for another day and time. Set up a system for managing e-mails and prioritizing requests. Make sure you get outside or get to connect with other people so you are not functioning in isolation everyday. 4. Play A Different Role Are you the team member that organizes everything? Or are you the ad-hoc tech support person for your team? Maybe you’re the one everyone goes to when there’s a last minute crisis. Taking on a specific role within your team may have boxed you in and now you can’t get out. Whatever hat you normally wear â€" take it off. Changing how you engage can change how you feel about your work and your colleagues. 5. Make A Plan It can be really hard to stay motivated if you can’t see a light at the end of the tunnel. Most people stay on the road to nowhere because they haven’t made a map to go anywhere else. Start putting together a plan for how you are going to escape or move into another role. It could mean going back to school, updating your resume for a lateral move within your company, expanding your professional network â€" the point here is to move from being dominated by feelings of frustration to a place of action.
