Cristiano Ronaldo is also famous for being a big spender who lives a life full of luxury and he is worth it - as one of one of the richest footballers ever.

The Portuguese captain recently reached the billion dollar mark and he alongside other top sports men including Tiger Woods and Conor McGregor have splashed cash on yachts.
