It was the American magazine Forbes which has published a list that appear athletes earn more money, between those who go to Beijing.

Leading the top-10 athletes bathed in gold is that Kobe Bryan, according to the aforementioned publication, admitted, a year, no small amount of 24.5 million euros between what is charged in the NBA and its advertising contracts with Nike , Sony and Coca-Cola.

LeBron James, with its 23, 8 million annually, and Ronaldinho, with its 23.2 ‘kilos’ occupy second and third place in a classification which includes a Spanish: Pau Gasol.

The Catalan admitted 9.4 million per year and occupies the tenth position of a ranking that has not taken into account their advertising revenues, the same as it would have led people to take up higher on this list, which, by the way, only contained a woman: Maria Sharapova.

The spectacular tennis player wins 16.3 kilos annual occupying the seventh place in a ranking that neither course, we had the wrong body.

In short, to put further finger on the sore you leave here with a list of the ten most Olympic charge (note that Forbes has included a Nowitzk Dirk, whose presence in Beijing is not yet assured):
