May 2024 ยท 1 minute read

While Matthew McConaughey's successful acting career is one of the main reasons for his sky-high salary, it's his business portfolio that really makes his net worth intriguing. The Oscar-winning actor has made several headline-making investments throughout the last several years. According to Fox Business, in early 2020, McConaughey contributed to a "$50 million financing round for subscription sports media platform The Athletic." The up-and-coming sports media company was also backed by Silicon Valley billionaire Peter Thiel's Founders Fund.


Fox Business adds that, one year prior, McConaughey "obtained an ownership stake in FC Austin, a Major League Soccer expansion franchise set to begin play in 2021." What does that mean? According to Forbes, "The average MLS franchise was worth $313 million as of November [2020]." His investments don't stop there, either. In 2017, McConaughey also backed the high-tech, membership-only health facility Forward, whose investors include other celebs such as Ashton Kutcher and Bono, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

So, what do all these investments mean for McConaughey's net worth and future?
