Factors of prize money earnings yearly, business related, sponsors, etc (e.g.Nick Varner owns a cue company and distribution biz) . Anything they've done that's pool related income.
When Mizerak was alive I think he made a hefty sum yearly.
Here are my picks, interested in seeing what others come up with in names and numbers.

(for fun i put imaginary numbers to what I think they may make :)
Johnny Archer 175k
Allen Hopkins 350k
Nick Varner 200k
Jeanette Lee 400k
Charlie Williams 700k
Allison Fisher 150k
Chin Shun Yang 250k
Efren Reyes 200k
Yu Ram Cha 250k
Thorsten Hohmann 125k
Ralf Souquet 100k
Niels Feijen 100k

* dont take the numbers to seriously, just guestimates by my own abstract formulas

The biggest money maker hands down is Efren Reyes.

From a simple search of the AZBilliards website--

Dragon Promotions has proven to be highly successful in involving large corporate sponsors in and outside the billiard industry. Some of DP's track record highlights include CJ Media(Division of Samsung, the $90 billion giant ranked 46th Fortune Global 500), The Hyundai Group ($60 billion ranked 76th Fortune Global 500), and Lotte Group ($26 billion specializing in hotel,food,department stores). I am sure that Charlie is pocketing some of this sponsorship change.

Alexandria, VA, February 20, 2007 - Jeanette Lee, aka ?The Black Widow,? has agreed to speak on the health benefits of hot tubs on behalf of The Hot Tub Council (HTC) of the Association of Pool & Spa Professionals (APSP). The partnership goes into effect immediately. [As part of the partnership with the Hot Tub Council, Ms. Lee will have a presence on the HotTubLiving.com Web site talking about her personal health challenges and how hot tubs have helped her recovery.

Lee also works with her foundation, the Jeanette Lee Foundation, to help raise money for the Women?s Sports Foundation, serves as a Trustee for the Women?s Sports Foundation and actively participates in fundraising events for various charities.



Whenever you have your own Foundation, you have some bucks. Many pro football/baseball/basketball players have their own Foundations, put their brother or mother in charge in order to pay them a nice yearly salary.


I agree that having your own foundation means you could have alot of status. But also depends on what kind. so many charities out there, you really dont need alot of money. anyone could start one
Jeanette is making a great living. And I'm sure Charlie probably makes more than her considering he organizes the events that she participates in Korea. Making 40 events a year times xamount of profit per TV events easily yields in 7 figures.

Both of them I'm sure are millionaires

speaking of dollars

I wonder what the number was for Efren's stick. He isn't in the habit of parting with them but somebody made him an offer he couldn't refuse, at the world championships if I remember correctly.

I heard a japanese collector bought Mizeraks cue for $50 Gs
Mosconi's 3 szambotis he played with going for 1.2 million (last i heard)

Im sure Miz has got to go down as one of the top 5 ever richest players

In general people born under the sign of CANCER know how to make money.Those two ladies you mentioned -Jennifer & Jennette are born under the sign of cancer.

The richest player is the one that can remember the feeling of running his first rack of 9-ball ! IMO
Shawn, I can't wait for it to happen; I don't break like you.
