Lebron James 50 Million Dollar Mansion in Miami!!
 
http://www.chicitysports.com/2010/07...ables-florida/

Quote:

Life & Style is reporting that LeBron James, who recently signed a six-year, $110 million deal with the Miami Heat, has started the paperwork to buy a $49.5 million mansion in the most expensive portion of Coral Gables, Fla. The home was once owned by Pat Riley, and was taken off the market shortly after “The Decision.”
The home is the most expensive in Coral Gables, according to Life & Style, and features:
• eight bedrooms and 11 bathrooms;
• 880 feet of waterfront;
• a master suite with a full gym;
• a private guest suite with its own tennis court and courtyard on an acre of land.
• a 150-foot dock
Taxes are about $1 million per year, with an additional $150,000 price tag for utilities. South Florida auto magnate Alan Potamkin owns the home, and he has listed the home for $49.5 million.
Life & Style reports it’s a “slam dunk” the home will soon belong to James.

He signed a $90 million shoe contract with Nike before he hit the NBA...:eek:

Don't know if this is official, but this is his endorsement money:

Nike 90,000,000
Sprite 12,000,000
NBA contract with the Cavs 129,000,000

and those aren't even all of them or close to all of them.

I always find it comical that celebs buy all these extremely huge houses that they don't need.

Look i love hating, it's probably my favorite thing to do. You gotta have some backup to that hate though.

Lebron is estimate to be worth in excess of 300million at this point. So what if he bought a 50million dollar house.
Would you be hating if someone here in Vancouver who had a net worth of 1million bought a 200K house?

This could even be a savvy investment, who knows? Not like he blew it on crack and got married without signing a prenup (whatup tiger!).

All i know is, Lebron... you can go south, but your mom rides West.

Just to clarify, Tiger Woods did get a pre-nup which would pay her $10mil. However, the figure of $100mil - $750mil is to essentially shut her up so she can't write a book or talk to reporters / interviews regarding their marriage, which the pre-nup does not cover.

Hi, I'm Lebron James, and when i die i hope to have every single penny i've ever made kept somewhere safe and never spent so that I can not enjoy my lifetime success.

Haters gonna hate. You just jealous he has a nicer house. QQ.

Hyde says: Tehehe, people can't even buy a 4000sq ft apartment in Hong Kong with 50mil

mahogany panels, parquet floor, chandeliers, 60s looking tennis court....

Why the hell does a 20 something years old superstar want a house with an interior that looks like it was built for an 80 years old senior?

Mugen EvOlutioN 07-19-2010 08:55 AM

Greenstoner 07-19-2010 09:11 AM

iambuRnz 07-19-2010 10:15 AM

He's the new superstar in miami. Of course he had to buy the most expensive property on the block.
