Despite Her $180 Million Status, Maria Sharapova Sheds Light on Her Sustainable Yet Classy Approach to Shopping

One wouldn’t expect a star like Maria Sharapova whose net worth alone is $180 million to hesitate while buying things when she goes shopping, right? Well, we wouldn’t either. But recently in an interview on a podcast, the tennis legend shared how her approach toward shopping is a little different. Sharapova shared how less is more for her and when she goes shopping, she only goes for useful things.

Maria Sharapova is currently practicing for Pickleball Slam 2 along with John McEnroe. The two will be competing in the doubles tournament for pickleball against the real-life couple Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf. Her fans are really excited to watch her once again on the court, even if it is not for tennis.

Maria Sharapova shares her conservative shopping approach despite a huge net worth

Being a tennis star worth $180 million net worth, no one expects Maria Sharapova to have second thoughts or even check the price tag of an item when she is out shopping. But believe it or not, her approach to shopping is quite different. Recently she was in a podcast episode of ‘Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard’, where she revealed her shopping habits.

During the podcast conversation, she shared how her shopping habits are quite different. She added, “I don’t spend a lot on things. I don’t have a lot of things in my house because aesthetically, I just appreciate less. And so, when I do buy, I don’t buy cheaply. I buy well in a way that I live with these things like shoes. I will rinse and repeat them and then I will buy a sofa that I’m going to re-upholster in 5 years and I’m going to keep that sofa because I made a conscious decision. So, decisions that I make around money are around useful things”

Her approach to shopping truly focuses on sustainability. She shares how she continues to buy expensive stuff once in a while but keeps in mind that she will use it for a long time instead of buying things every now and then. And that coming from a celebrity of her scale is truly astounding. And we can all learn from that!

In fact, that is not the only thing that shows that Sharapova is not very materialistic. She also talked about her silver medal from the Olympics not being on display, which again shows a side of her that is very different from other tennis players.

Maria Sharapova shares how she did not put her trophies and medals on display

During the same interview, Maria Sharapova talked about how if somebody comes to her house, they will not even feel like they were at a tennis player’s house. She said that without the trophies and medals portrayed all around, one wouldn’t even realize that a person can be associated with sports. But she feels differently. She shared that she did not put her silver medal on display.

One of the reasons was that Sharapova had to quickly go to another tournament due to which she could not savor the moment she won the medal. And also, because she felt that she wanted to win the gold one and could not, so putting up the silver medal did not make sense to her. She added that she moved on really quickly from it.
