Derek Jeter Net Worth: The Yankees player is now 40 years old and retiring, making this his last season. Believe me when I tell you, though, that he is leaving with wealth as much as talent and contribution to the team.

Derek Jeter's net worth has decreased from one in the past. As he belongs to a team, it depends how the season goes for the entire team and how much they all make, and then Derek Jeter can be more "valued" or less "valued" economically.

This years' net worth for Derek Jeter is of an estimated quantity of $185 million according to The Richest, and according to Forbes, he is in the 35^th place of The World's Highest Paid Athletes, making as of June 2014, $24.3 million dollars.

So, Derek Jenner is really not doing bad at all and once he is out he will have money to spend for the rest of his life. But where is the downfall for this fantastic player?

It can be found in 2011, when Derek Jenner was producing a $5 billion net worth not for him but for the Yankees, who had a wonderful season and his own net worth at that time was of $213 million in salary he had made up to the moment and had other $43 million to come, according to Forbes. And these numbers were only of 2011's mid-year stats.

So now, he makes less as the Yankees are also not having such a wonderful season like the one they had that year.

Still, Derek Jenner doesn't need to worry about his net worth or his salary, not now and not ever probably. He makes a more than lovely quantity at the moment, but even when he has retired, he will never vanish.

He is Derek Jenner, the captain! And his net worth will still be untouched.

And a final line by Derek Jeter to close this which adheres perfectly to everything said: "I love it when people doubt me. It makes me work harder to prove them wrong."
