Former boxer Floyd Mayweather is reportedly one of the richest athletes in the world, with his earnings amounting to US$915 million in the past decade. Now, he has found a new way to continue making some money through retirement.

Mayweather has launched a Cameo account in partnership with Stardam, a third-party firm that supports celebrity endorsements. Cameo is a social media app which allow users to pay celebs to record a personalized video message upon request.

This means you can ask Mayweather to utter anything you would like him to say—but the catch is it will cost US$999 per submission.



If you’re curious about the high price, Mayweather simply justified it by saying, “I want to be the first celebrity to make a million dollars on Cameo.”

First I want to congratulate every other athlete on this list and second I am honored to have accomplished such record breaking numbers. No disrespect to anyone but I did these numbers really in 5 years due to a couple of layoffs and with NO endorsements. I never wanted an endorsement deal from anyone because my vision was always to be my own boss and have no obligations to anyone. So I started my own promotion company and own brand (TMT) in which we are continuing to grow and soon will be the endorsers. You can say what you want about Floyd Mayweather but the numbers and accolades don’t lie. This is truly about hard work and dedication and knowing your worth. @mayweatherpromotions @themoneyteam
