Is Michael Schumacher's rehabilitation already hurting his net worth value? Up until now, there have not been any concrete bulletins regarding Schumacher's current health condition. Despite the media blackout requested by his family, avid fans of the former Formula One superstar continue to wish him all the best through the hashtag #KeepFightingMichael campaign on Twitter.
While there have been some vague updates, Michael Schumacher, who has a net worth of $800 million, is currently making progress in spite of the severity of his injury caused by the skiing accident in the French Alps in December 2013. However, the cost of his rehabilitation seems to be quite challenging to his family.
Michael Schumacher is currently recuperating at his Lake Geneva mansion, which has a custom-built state-of-the-art medical suite. He is receiving care from a team of 15 medical specialists, including doctors, nurses and therapists 24/7. And Cross Map revealed the total cost of his rehabilitation is $154,000 (£100,000) per week and the medical bills are already more than $15 million.
With Michael Schumacher's estimated net worth of $800 million as Celebrity Net Worth listed, the seven-time world champion is well placed to provide the limitless care he needed in the coming years. But the life-changing skiing accident in 2013 has pushed his wife Corinna to sell some of their properties. We previously reported in August that she has sold their $25 million jet and holiday home.
It was also believed that Schumacher's wife has taken over her husband's £500-million business empire while he's unable to manage his own interests as he receives treatment for his injuries.
Michael Schumacher's net worth has also suffered great losses after his sponsors ditched him. As previously reported, the F1 legend lost several million pounds after wealthy sponsors dumped him after the ski accident left him paralyzed and unable to speak. Allegedly, the companies no longer see the F1 superstar as the best model to represent their products.
Despite having hundreds of millions of net worth, Michael Schumacher's recovery is still very slow. A new report claimed that Schumacher's weight is less than 45 kilograms. He is also still unable to talk or walk on his own and doesn't respond well to any stimulus from the outside.
Meanwhile, Michael Schumacher is definitely a proud father as his son Mick continues to prove his worth as he marks his own name in the world of racing, The Bit Bag noted. In fact, he finished 10th at the Formula 4 season this 2015 for the Dutch team, Van Amersfoot Racing.
"The season was fun," Schumacher's son told German broadcaster Sport1, as per Daily Mail. "We'll have to see about next year."
