Enrique Ponce tops annual list of highest-paid bullfighters
In 2022 it looked like the bullfighter’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Monday (November 4) that Ponce is the highest-paid bullfighter in the world, pulling in an astonishing $46 million between October 2023 and October 2024, a nearly $20 million lead over his closest competition.
People With Money’s factors
In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.
The Spanish bullfighter has an estimated net worth of $145 million. He owes his fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Ponce Burger” chain) in Madrid, a Football Team (the “Chiva Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderponce - Spain), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Enrique) and a fashion line called “Enrique Ponce Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many Enrique fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
