David Beckham has pocketed a "staggering" £29M ($39.4M) "windfall from his business empire," according to Richard Moriarty of THE SUN. Beckham banked almost £1.25M ($1.7M) per month over the past two years from commercialization of his "brand." Documents filed at Companies House show Beckham's company, DB Ventures Ltd., banked an £18.75M ($25.5M) dividend in '17. He "already pocketed" £10.2M the previous year, bringing the "take home amount" to £29M. DB Ventures rakes in money from "licensing and other forms of commercialisation of the 'David Beckham' brand." Beckham, 42, has "lucrative deals with a number of global brands" -- earning as much as the Premier League's current top earners (THE SUN, 1/2).
