Peyton Manning
According to some, Peyton Manning is the best NFL quarterback in history. The Colts picked him during the 1998 NFL Draft. This record-breaker played for them for 13 years! Let’s not forget to mention the children’s hospital he built in Indianapolis. Remember when he hosted the 2001 ESPY Awards? Manning manages over 20 Papa John’s within Colorado.
John Elway
Ah, John Elway! This smart former NFL player invested his hard-earned money into businesses like car dealerships. All of this savvy investing got him around $145 million. Yet, he did fall victim to a Ponzi scheme and lost quite a sum of money. He was inducted in both the Pro Football Hall of Fame and College Football Hall of Fame.
