$400 Million-Worth Dale Earnhardt Jr’s Venture With Wife Honored by USA Today as the Best in the Country
Most athletes, after they retire, transition away from the center stage or the periphery of the center stage and the limelight gradually. But then there’re athletes like Dale Earnhardt Jr, who even after their retirement, stay as relevant and close to the mainstream as ever.
Not only that, someone like Junior, who was a fairly successful driver during his time in NASCAR, even after 5 years of his retirement, he is still winning. The only difference now is that instead of winning behind the wheel of a racecar, the Hall of Famer is winning in other facets of life.
Take for instance, his and his wife’s vodka brand, High Rock’s massive achievement.
