Jordan travels on a $150 million yacht, 74 meters long like a palace on the sea, and his wife is 15 years younger than him

NBA legend Jordan has been enjoying a summer vacation in recent times, and he is currently on vacation with his family in Scratin, Croatia, a coastal town near Kerka National Park.

Jordan, 62 years old, took the superyacht "M 'Brace" during his trip. The yacht is 74 meters long and has a luxurious configuration, like a sea palace. It was launched in 2018 and is estimated to be worth about US$150 million.

It is reported that the "M 'Brace" yacht has multi-layer decks, equipped with cutting-edge entertainment systems, a fully equipped gym, a jacuzzi, a private lounge, a boat chef and a full-time crew, and a garage for storing water toys.

The travelers with Jordan are also his 47-year-old wife, Evette Preto, two daughters, Victoria and Isabel, and his mother, Deloris Jordan.

Jordan and Yvette Preeto met in 2008. The two held a wedding in 2013 and welcomed the birth of their twin daughters Victoria and Isabel in February 2014.

Although Yvette Preeto is 47 years old, he looks very young, has a very good figure, and a contagious smile. Judging from the photos, Jordan and his family enjoyed the vacation very much.

In fact, as early as early June, Jordan took a private plane to Sardinia for vacation. Jordan's private jet is a custom-built Gulfstream business jet worth $70 million, one of the fastest and most advanced business jets today, flying around 12,000 kilometers in one refuel.

According to Forbes, Jordan is the first athlete to rank among the richest individuals in the United States, with an estimated value of $3.5 billion as of 2024, which can also support his luxurious life.

It is worth mentioning that Jordan signed a contract with NBC in May this year and will participate in NBA event commentary or commentary work. It is reported that Jordan's annual salary for this contract is as high as US$40 million, which also makes him the highest annual salary sports commentator in history.

By the way, Jordan's annual salary in the 16 seasons in the NBA was $33.14 million, with a total salary of about $94 million. Therefore, this annual salary of $40 million exceeds Jordan's highest annual salary in his career.

The question is, how did Jordan have a wealth of $3.5 billion? This has something to do with his business activities. Jordan sneakers launched by Nike can receive a 5% dividend, and he received a dividend of US$330 million in 2023 alone.

Jordan was also the owner of an NBA team. The Charlotte Hornets he bought in 2006 were sold for $3 billion in 2023. Afterwards, Jordan formed a racing team and now put more energy on the track.

This comeback to comment on the NBA is obviously not just for money, after all, his personal wealth is already enough, and it may be mainly to get the NBA out of its slump.
