As the first ever billionaire athlete, Michael Jordan has always been shrewd and business-minded since the beginning of his career. The six-time NBA legend has not only won his on-court battles but is smoothly sailing through his off-court ones as well. With a staggering net worth of $1.7 billion, the Chicago Bulls legend indulges in luxury that one can only imagine of.
After recently partying with the Phoenix Suns’ young shooting guard, Devin Booker in St. Tropez?s restaurant in Bagatelle, Jordan’s $70,000,000 possession was spotted in foreign waters.

Spotted recently on the French coast, Jordan’s super yacht “Joy” is truly a work of art. Costing a staggering $70 million, Jordan’s “Joy” spans over 230 feet in length and outlines almost 10 feet. It consists of five decks, eight cabins, an indoor jacuzzi, a movie theatre, a spa and a stunning dining room.
The yacht has an owner’s pavilion which has the yacht’s penthouse suite, personal office and a terrace to check out the best views of the ocean. Something tells me that this yacht is called “Joy” for a reason.
From having the most lucrative athlete brand deal (Jordan-Nike) in the world to owning multiple successful business ventures, the name Michael Jordan is synonymous with “winning”.
