2. Peyton Manning (QB) - $248.7 Million

Peyton Manning is the blueprint for being a high-caliber quarterback at the highest level. His precision, poise, and ability to read defenses like the back of his hand has allowed him to become the first-ballot Hall of Fame quarterback that he's worked towards since his youth. Peyton Manning attended the University of Tennessee from 1994 to 1997. During his tenure with the Volunteers, Manning became the school's all-time leading passer with a total of 11,201 yards, 89 touchdowns, and a 39-6 record as a starter at the institution.

Manning was selected 1st overall by the Indianapolis Colts in the 1998 NFL Draft where he played fourteen out of the eighteen seasons of his NFL career. While a member of the Colts, he won four NFL Most Valuable Player Awards, a Super Bowl (XLI) victory in 2006, and Super Bowl XLI MVP. After a neck injury mishap with the Colts medical staff, Manning took his talents to the Denver Broncos where he won his fifth and final NFL MVP in 2013 and Super Bowl (50) victory in 2015. With three contracts worth at least $90 million under his belt, Manning has racked up close to $250 million in earnings throughout his career. The funny thing is that he left $19 million at the table when he decided to retire in 2016.

Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.

So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.

Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
