The Denver Broncos’ outside linebacker has turned his dream house into a reality with hard work, and he’s not shy about talking it up. He’s happy and proud of what he has built for himself.
That’s pretty easy to understand, given the contents of his $8 million estate in Cherry Hills Village. It features 7 bedrooms, 6 baths, and a closet room that stores over 800 pairs of designer shoes. The master bedroom is designed after a Vegas hotel room, and its basement has a pool hall.
Matt Forte – Chicago, Estimated $4.1 Million
Prior to playing for the New York Jets as a running back, Matt Forte spent 8 long years dedicated to the Chicago Bears. During this period, he had earned an incredible fortune that gave him the purchasing power to acquire an amazing $4.1 million mansion in downtown Chicago.
The magnificent four-story home offers dreamy features, such as 5 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, an elevator, and a home theater that can cater to 20 people. Indeed, Forte can be a good host of big occasions in his huge house. It certainly has enough room, although he still feels the need to add more.
Cam Newton –1970 Oldsmobile 442 Cutlass, Estimated $255K
The quarterback for the Carolina Panthers lives securely in his new posh condo in Charlotte, that has an extremely advanced security system. He likes to go up to his rooftop and watch the neighborhood that he loves from the pool.
But the real deal about Cam Newton is when he goes out to drive his 1970 Oldsmobile 442 Cutlass - a combination of gold and black colors. The interior is fit for a king, seats riddled with diamond stitches. He loves to customize his car, and it is safe to say it will undergo some more upgrades despite all the improvements already made to it. But how do you upgrade a car that already has 24-karat gold plating?
LaRon Landry – Lamborghini Murcielago, Estimated $450K
LaRon Landry (aka Iron Man) is a former safety for the Washington Redskins, New York Jets, and the Indianapolis Colts. Just like other NFL superstars, Landry has a wide collection of toys that can be attributed to super athletes’ predilection towards speed and power.
His extravagant collections include a white Hummer H2 pickup, a matte white Lamborghini Aventador, a modified 2008 silver Corvette, and a metallic green Lamborghini Murcielago that he customized for a pretty sum of $450,000. You can just stare at these babies the whole day!
Eli Manning –Quogue, Estimated $8.5 Million
Perhaps Alfred Morris and Eli Manning are two of a kind. Both their NFL careers have propelled them to earn millions of dollars, but unlike most of their peers they prefer to lead a relatively simple lifestyle. This bodes well for a future beyond football, buttressed by a fat bank account.
Instead of splurging his hard-earned money with a huge collection of luxury cars, Manning decided to purchase an Escalade Hybrid for $74,500, which isn’t bad at all. This allowed him to maximize his investment by turning to real estate instead in Quogue, South Hamptons for $8.5 million. The value of this beachfront property is only expected to increase, with its peaceful view and direct pathway down the shore.
