Apparently Fee Isn't Always Enough
An Offer You Can’t Refuse
Washed up, beaten down, kicked to the curb. Sprint’s
The fourth-largest telecom company is now offering as many as five free lines of service for one year to Verizon customers in a last-ditch, digital effort to gain some street cred.
But is it too little too late? Sprint’s $2 billion bottom line feels concerningly small when compared with its $40 billion debt load. And the pressure remains real to either finagle a merger with T-Mobile or quickly work its way out of the four slot.
If “free” doesn’t win you subscribers, not sure what will.

1. Michael Schumacher
1. Michael Schumacher
- Net Worth: $780m Status: Retired
At
one point Schumacher was the second highest-earning sports star in the
world with half of his earnings coming directly from Ferrari, while in
2005 Eurobusiness magazine named him as the world’s first billionaire
athlete.
The
most decorated Formula One driver in history, he holds the records for
the most career wins, the most wins in a season, the most career pole
positions, the most consecutive world championships, the most
consecutive race wins and many, many more.
A
significant portion of his net worth has come from advertising, with
German financial services company Deutsche Vermögensberatung paying him
$8 million just to wear a 10 x 8 centimetre advertisement on his
baseball cap.
He
owns several luxury mansions on the shore of Lake Geneva, a personal
island in ‘The World’ off the coast of the United Arab Emirates and
things like a private jet and a $2.1 million custom Ferrari FXX.
