Alex Rodriguez

During his childhood, Alex Rodriguez looked up to baseball players like Keith Hernandez, Dale Murphy, and Cal Ripken Jr. This inspiration eventually led him to pursue a career in the MLB. After showcasing and improving his skills throughout his school days, he began his professional career playing for seven seasons with the Seattle Mariners. For the rest of his 22-season career, he played three of them with the Texas Rangers and the remaining 12 with the New York Yankees.

Before he retired from his baseball career, Alex already worked on many ventures. In 2003, he launched A-Rod Corp., a company that has made investments in businesses like Snapchat and NRG eSports. Soon after, he founded Newport Property Construction and Monument Capital Management. Since their inception, Property Construction and Monument Capital have made millions from their work in the real estate business.
