5. Tiger Woods - $760m

There's been a lot of debate in recent years about whether Tiger Woods has permanently lost his sparkle out on the golf course, and if his best years are behind him. If they are, he'll be walking away with more money than any other pro golf player in history. Whether he's the greatest of all time is subjective, but he has spent more time ranked as world #1 than any other player in history and has 14 Major championships to his name.

As the new poster boy of golf, Woods was the most marketable sports star in the world in the early 21st Century, signing endorsement deals with Nike, American Express and many other big companies. He's designed a golf proof watch with TAG Hueur and licensed his name to EA Sports for a series of video games, all of which sent his cash reserves through the roof. Back surgeries may have slowed him down, but the money keeps on coming.

Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.

So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.

Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
