Danica Patrick "is considered the most successful woman in the history of American open-wheel racing," according to Celebrity Net Worth. With a long list of records and accomplishments that any driver would envy, her talent on the track has helped her earn an undeniably impressive amount of money. Forbes notes that "Patrick's personal endorsement portfolio remains the envy of the sport," which is why she took the #7 spot on the list of NASCAR's highest-paid drivers in 2017 with $12.2 million. She also made the list in 2018, taking the #8 spot with $10.3 million, which was also when she decided to retire from professional racing at 36 after a 14-year career, per Fortune

However, Patrick wasn't about to take it easy following her retirement from racing. In fact, she has a number of other money-making pursuits to keep her busy. The New York Times points out that she "has a book, Pretty Intense, to sell, plus a clothing line called Warrior, and her Somnium brand of wine."

"None of my other businesses are linked with racing necessarily — other than it being me, and that's what I did, and that's given me everything I have, from awareness to the houses I own and the life I get to live," Patrick told the Times in May 2018. That life includes a fortune that Celebrity Net Worth reports is in the range of a whopping $60 million.
