After spending a decade in the NFL as a wide receiver (primarily for the Green Bay Packers), Nelson retired after the 2018 season. He earned nearly $60 million in that time, but it’s safe to say that a lot of that money is still in the bank.

He was known to fly into Milwaukee rather than Green Bay when going home because the flights were cheaper at the further airport. This family man also puts in long hours on his farm, even though he could afford to hire help.
