What is Tiger Woods doing outside of golf that helped him earn 85
million dollars last year?  This does not include over 10 million in
earnings last year just from golf.  Also, is he considered one of the
most successful minority businessmen in the world today?

Hello strikerunc-ga,

Tiger Woods made that money from endorsements and appearance fees.
Based on this, my opinion is that he is not a businessman but a
celebrity professional athlete.  So my answer to your second question
would be no, he is not one of the most successful minority businessmen
in the world today. He is one of the most successful professional
athletes.

Please let me know if this answers your question.
