Imagine making $975,000 for a single Instagram post. Just sit back and think about that. Ronaldo makes more for 10 seconds of work than the average person does in a decade.
That’s how you know you’re successful and popular. He just hits send on his phone and get paid major dollars.

How much do you think I could get paid for an Instagram post? Five dollars? One dollar? Nothing at all? I’m not sure, but I know damn well it wouldn’t be anywhere near $975,000.
I’m over here hoping for enough to buy a sandwich for a sponsored post, and Ronaldo is getting enough money per post to buy a new house every week.
I guess that just displays the different paths we chose.
Props to Ronaldo for getting his money. No matter what you think about Instagram, you can’t hate a guy for getting his money.
