đ¨UFC legend and entrepreneur Conor McGregor shocked the world by announcing his run for the presidency of Ireland via a bold tweet. He promised to âsummonâ or even âdissolveâ the DĂĄil, targeting political elites he accused of betraying the Irish people.
On his agenda:
- He wants to establish a task force to thoroughly vet all migrants moving to Ireland, ensuring stricter control over who enters the country. Additionally, he plans to deport illegal migrants and criminals.
- End wasteful government spending.
The tweet drew reactions from figures like Elon Musk ("Awesome") and Andrew Tate, who pledged his vote.
McGregorâs move is reminiscent of Donald Trumpâs rise: a celebrity businessman leveraging media savvy to enter politics. Known for founding the Proper No. Twelve whiskey brandâselling his stake for $150 millionâand ranking among the highest-paid athletes in 2022, McGregor has already built a net worth in the hundreds of millions. Now, he plans to enter politics with the same boldness that defined his MMA career.

Everyone Thought David Beckham Was CrazyâŚ
When David Beckham left Real Madrid in 2007 to join the MLS, it left many fans and pundits scratching their heads. Why would a global superstar trade one of Europeâs elite clubs for a fledgling league in the United States?
But Beckhamâs vision extended beyond the soccer pitchâit was about creating a lasting legacy and building wealth.
The Move.
Beckhamâs switch to the Los Angeles Galaxy was more than a surprising career choice; it was a calculated business decision. His contract wasnât just about scoring goalsâit included a cut of all revenue streams from the Galaxy, from ticket sales to merchandise, and even concessions. This was a lucrative source of passive income, but Beckham had bigger ambitions.
The Contract.
The true brilliance of Beckhamâs deal was a unique clause: the option to buy an MLS franchise for $25 million upon his retirement. By the time he hung up his boots in 2012, after raking in around $250 million during his Galaxy stint, Beckham could have easily retired comfortably. Instead, he activated the clause, determined to bring a team to Miami.
The New Team.
In 2018, Beckhamâs vision materialized when he officially launched Inter Miami. By 2020, the team was playing its first game, and within just two years, its value skyrocketed to over $500 millionâa phenomenal 20-fold return on his original investment.
The Messi Effect.
And then, the story reached new heights. In June 2023, Lionel Messi made headlines by joining Inter Miami, boosting the clubâs value even further. Now, with a valuation exceeding $1 billion, Beckhamâs initial $25 million outlay has ballooned to a staggering $1.5 billion.
David Beckham has proven to be much more than a soccer star; heâs a financial visionary.
