What is Simone Biles' net worth?

Simone Biles is the most decorated gymnast in history with her now nine Olympic medals and 30 World Championship medals. How much has she earned from that success?

A huge portion of Biles' net worth comes from endorsements or brand deals rather than from her career earnings. While some Olympians can make tens of thousands of dollars from their success in a given Olympic Games, the salary for most Olympic athletes does not compare to that of the NFL or MLB.

So while Biles' success in her sport hasn't earned her an outstanding salary, it has earned her plenty of brand partnerships willing to pay in the millions of dollars.

Here's how much Biles is worth, according to various sources:
