Refreshing to read an interview from a level headed fighter that understands life.

Bloody Elbow: You told me the last time I spoke to you that you were very careful with your money. What are your plans to make money after your fight career?

Gegard Mousasi: I am in the real estate business. I never spend my fight money. I invest it in real estate and rent out apartments and houses and buildings. I use the income from that to live on and my fight money goes directly back into getting more real estate. Right now I have 11 different properties. I don't want to work after I retire from fighting, and I already will be able to live a very comfortable lifestyle when that time comes.

Makes sense comming from a sensible man..

Sounds like a wise plan. I wonder roughly how much $$ he's made throughout his career.

Interesting read.

Thanks for posting.

if there's one thing I agree with DFW is that fighters should try their best to get as much money as possible and save and invest that money wisely

 

[martijn]

1 or 2 million euro's I guess

 

[Snoowpy]

Smart fighter, wish more fighters would invest.

I'd also like to dine with Hitler

Cool guy, smart fellow.

 

[Jackpot]

Dont forget that Moussasi is the youngest guy in the MW top 10 division at only 28 yo. So he could potentially make a lot more money for a guy that will be in contender status his whole career. (Silva,Machida,Jacare,Kennedy,Belfort are all 34-39)

Imagine having Mousasi as your landlord? Ha I'd have the rent in early everytime! :icon_chee

 

[GordaoPreguico]

Imagine negotiating the sale of a home to that stone faced killer.

 

[ZackZed]

Someone needs to forward this to Cerrone.

 

[Street Level]

The Hitler comment st the end made me laugh.

 

[Nieliz74]

He's a smart guy both in and outside the cage, quick calculation , hes made somewhere around 500K in the UFC alone (unofficial but still..) He has earned it
