Fans often consider Michael Jordan one of the GOATs of basketball. But he parlayed his playing career into an even better post-retirement work opportunity for him. Jordan is considered the richest athlete of all time, with a net worth of $2.2 billion. Jordan’s main business vertical is the Jordan brand which he has in partnership with Nike and the Air Jordan series.

In June 2006, Jordan bought a minority stake in the Charlotte Hornets. And eventually became a majority owner in 2010. Jordan is one of the most marketed sports figures in history. He has a lot of varied business ventures, which include an automotive group, and the restaurant industry among others. Even though he has been a larger-than-life celebrity for most of his life, he can be fiercely private most of the time.

Michael Jordan’s protective shield

Jordan keeps some of his most valued possessions in safe, but there is nothing normal about it. The safe goes into automatic shutdown if we try wrong combinations. Meaning if you try the wrong combinations enough times, or god forbid actually forget the correct combination, the only way to open it would be to blast it.

Yes, you are not reading it wrong, if he ever forgets the combination Jordan would have to blast the safe to get it opened. He also moves around with a security team whenever he leaves the state to go somewhere else.

Jordan, like any other billionaire, is protective of his wealth. But just like his playing days, he is a touch above everybody else in how he conducts his regular affairs. For normal people, his methods may be eccentric to us, but for Jordan, he is just being himself.
