‘Money’ gives a motivational message on Instagram and boasts that he always has to give himself a “little gift”
After causing a stir with his $402 million real estate acquisition in New York City, Floyd Mayweather showed off one of his latest whims.
On October 16, ‘Money’ closed a deal to acquire more than 60 buildings that will provide more than 1,000 affordable housing units, making it one of the largest transactions in the city in 2024.
I’m having fun, living life, making power moves every day. As you can see, see my badge right here for my buildings, take a look. Really blessed, working hard, making power moves. That’s what I do, always got to give myself a little gift. Have you seen this? Himalaya. Just what we do, another Dior. Money earned, and you know the rest,” Mayweather posted in an Instagram story, as he showed off a Dior suitcase to match one he already had.

The properties that Mayweather acquired are located in Upper Manhattan, illustrating the boxer’s continued commitment to making dreams come true.
After retiring with a flawless 50-0 record and earning hundreds of millions in high-profile fights, his net worth is estimated at $1.2 billion, placing him among the richest athletes in the world.
This latest deal is not Mayweather‘s first foray into the New York real estate market. He previously partnered with SL Green Realty to invest in nine skyscrapers and is also involved in its bid to develop a casino in Times Square.
“I’ve worked with SL Green for many years, and Andrew Mathias is a great businessman,” Mayweather said on the “Earn Your Leisure” podcast.
Mayweather’s earnings are even more astonishing when compared to those of other athletes, to the point that he is considered the fifth highest paid athlete of all time, alongside sporting icons such as Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods.
