Alright, so you wanna know about this fella, Justin Verlander, and how much money he’s got, right? Folks call it “net worth,” sounds fancy, but it just means how much stuff he’s got minus how much he owes. Like, if you got a cow worth five hundred bucks but you owe the feed store a hundred, your net worth is four hundred, see?
Well, they say this Justin fella, he’s got a whole lotta cows, so to speak. Some say he’s sittin’ on around 200 million dollars in 2024. That’s a whole lotta hay, ain’t it? Makes my head spin just thinkin’ about it. Where’d he get all that money? Mostly from playin’ that baseball game, you know, the one with the bat and the ball? He’s real good at throwin’ that ball, they say.
He plays for these big city teams, like the Tigers, the Astros, and even them Mets for a bit. Sounds like he hops around more than a flea on a dog, but I guess that’s where the money is. These teams, they pay him a heap of money to throw that ball. Millions and millions, can you believe it? I reckon he could buy the whole darn town with that kind of cash.
- He played for the Tigers for a long time, more than ten years, I heard.
- Then he went to the Astros, played there for a good spell too.
- Even went to New York for a bit, played for them Mets, but he came back to the Astros. Now, he’s a free agent, which means he can go play for whoever offers him the most money, I reckon.
And it ain’t just the baseball money, ya know. He gets money from other places too. They call ’em “endorsements,” which means fancy companies pay him to say their stuff is good. Like, if he says he likes a certain kind of tractor, then maybe everyone will go buy that tractor, see? That’s how it works, I guess. Smart fella, that Justin.
He’s won a bunch of prizes too, they call ’em “awards.” Says he won the World Series twice. That’s like winnin’ the biggest prize at the county fair, only a whole lot bigger and with a whole lot more money. And all them prizes and all that playin’, that’s what made him so rich.
Now, I also heard he’s married to some fancy lady, Upton, they call her. They got hitched in some place called Tuscany, sounds foreign. Guess rich folks like to go to foreign places to get married. She probably helps him spend all that money, ha! Just kiddin’, maybe she’s got her own money too, I don’t know. But one thing’s for sure, that Justin Verlander, he’s got more money than he knows what to do with, I bet.
So, to sum it all up, this Justin fella, he’s got a net worth of about 200 million dollars in 2024. He got it from playin’ baseball, winnin’ prizes, and gettin’ paid by fancy companies to say nice things about their stuff. That’s a lot of money, more than most folks see in ten lifetimes, I reckon. But good for him, I say. He worked hard for it, throwin’ that ball all them years. Just hope he don’t forget where he came from, ya know?
And now, he’s a free agent again, just like a loose chicken in the yard, ready to go wherever the feed is best. He’ll probably get even more money, who knows? Maybe he’ll buy another farm, or maybe even a whole ‘nother town!
Anyways, that’s the story on Justin Verlander’s money, as best as I can tell it. It’s a lot, that’s for sure. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go feed my own cows.
