Diving into David Ross’s Net Worth: My Little Experiment
Alright, so I was just chilling the other day, you know, thinking about baseball (as you do), and David Ross popped into my head. I mean, the guy’s got a World Series ring as a player and a manager. Pretty sweet gig, right? So, naturally, I got curious about his net worth. Not in a creepy way, just a casual “wonder what that’s like” kind of way.
First thing I did, I fired up my trusty search engine. Typed in “david ross cubs net worth” and boom, a whole bunch of sites popped up. Now, I take those numbers with a HUGE grain of salt. You never really know where they’re getting their info, and let’s be honest, a lot of those celebrity net worth sites are just guessing.
I spent some time looking at a few different articles. I noticed a pretty wide range in the estimated numbers. Some were saying one thing, others were totally different. It was kinda wild. It made me want to dig a little deeper. I started thinking, where would someone get reliable info about this?
Next up, I tried thinking like an investigator (kinda). I thought about the different revenue streams a guy like Ross would have. Obviously, there’s his salary as the Cubs manager. That’s gotta be a decent chunk of change. I tried to find some info about MLB manager salaries, which was a little tricky, but I pieced together some ranges.
- Manager Salary (Cubs): Did some digging, looked at comparable managers and team size, figured a reasonable range.
- Endorsements: Checked his social media, saw some partnerships, made a (very) rough estimate.
- Past Playing Career: Looked at his playing history and estimated past earnings.
Then I thought about endorsements. Does he have any big endorsement deals? A quick Google search showed a few things here and there, but nothing super major that I could find. I also considered his playing career. He played for a while, but wasn’t exactly a superstar, so that probably contributed, but maybe not as much as his current role.
Disclaimer time: I’m no financial expert. I’m just some dude messing around on the internet. All this is pure speculation and a fun little exercise. Don’t take it as gospel, okay?
So, after my super-scientific (not really) investigation, I came up with my own very rough estimate. It’s probably way off, but hey, it was fun to try and figure it out. I also learned that tracking someone’s net worth is HARD unless you have access to their bank accounts, and I definitely don’t have that!
Anyway, that was my little adventure into the world of celebrity net worth. It just goes to show you, a lot of what you read online is just guesswork. Pretty interesting, right?
