The average white collar worker making $300k a year will probably make at least $300k a year for the rest of his career. With that kind of fiancial security, you could take loans for million dollar homes to all kinds of cool toys.At a normal job $300k a year you will clear after taxes, and insurance, about $20k per month.
That is WAY more than enough to live in a phat house even in So. Cal.
A million dollar mortgage is about $10k per month. You telling me the other $10k isn't enough to live off of?
Considering with comp winnings you take whole amount, and pay taxes later the situation could be even better as deductions could leave these guys with even more money..
He also makes a lot of money as a free skier (his career before mountain biking) schley is just a good buisness man.Also a porsche, but he was a founder of the sport...it took him awhile to make that money also....there were many years of richie being a broke ass mofo
Earning 300k means taking home 150k. Invest 50 k a year and you'e pulling in way more than that 150k/year in the long run.The average white collar worker making $300k a year will probably make at least $300k a year for the rest of his career. With that kind of fianancial security, you could take loans for million dollar homes to all kinds of cool toys.
If any rider is lucky enough to make $300k in one year, he better put that into the bank because there is no guarantee he will make $300k the next year.
In america, the stunt/freestlye side of sports will usually make more.
Who do you think makes more? Someone like Travis Pistrana(sp?) who will pull double backflips or the guy who just won the national championships?
And BMX Big Air. I'll ignore the rest of your comment.just street BMX riding and Moto-X now.
Hey, I'm more in favor of bringing back DJs, but the X-Games marketing gurus (and probably event attendance/TV ratings) says otherwise...And BMX Big Air. I'll ignore the rest of your comment.
I am not sure your correct on this one. I am pretty sure Ricky Carmichal and James Stewart make more than Pastrana. If Pastrana makes close, it is because he owns a portion of the film studio that does the Nitro Circus videos.
Ricky makes enough though since he is planning on skipping the 3rd round of the Monster Energy Triple crown even if he wins Red Bud this weekend. If you win all three races, it's a $100,000 bonus check. He said he didn't need the money so he is fully retired after this weekend's race at Redbud. He might race the Motocross de Nations in September. But otherwise, off to stock cars.
As far as DH racers, most don't make squat. Except after they retire and become trainers for big name Pro MX racers.
True. My bad, I thought you were including yourself in the "no one wants to see dudes on little bikes" comment.Hey, I'm more in favor of bringing back DJs, but the X-Games marketing gurus (and probably event attendance/TV ratings) says otherwise...
Nitro circus makes no money, and pastrana only gets 10% of whatever they scrap together. He ruined a 1 million dollar contract f'ing around with nitro circus, and now hes pulling in cash from comps and sponsorships.
you are correct according to SI.rc makes 10-12 million per year tops, and that is because he is the best there is. I would expect James Stewart to make just under him. But any guy that isn't on a factory ride, or on top of the podiums makes almost nothing.
Theres not alot of Job Security out there these days.The average white collar worker making $300k a year will probably make at least $300k a year for the rest of his career. With that kind of fiancial security, you could take loans for million dollar homes to all kinds of cool toys.

2nd from the right. Kona Clump team.who's carlin dunne?
That's what I thought, thank you for clarifing. As I said above, I am pretty sure RC and Bubba make more. RC is rummored to be in the 20-30M range.
Your not Jim, are you?
Palmer got $200K for 1 season only! You know what he bought with it???I believe Shaun Palmer has had the biggest single contract in MTB history, something like 300k a year from Specialized in the late 90s.
