Pro gamer rakes in R9.3-million per year

The occupation of playing games professionally has become a viable career choice these days, however, raking in around R9.3 million a year makes it a pretty desirable dream.

This is the case with 23-year old Spanish League of Legends pro Carlos “Ocelote” Rodriguez, who has said that he makes around $1 million annually.

He stated that the amount is made up of a combination of tournament winnings, merchandising income, salary, live streaming games, and personal sponsors.

Rodriguez isn’t a huge spender though, and insists “now is the time to save and help the family.”
