Compare Michael Rubin’s Net WorthEarly LifeMichael Rubin was born Michael G. Rubin on July 21, 1972. He grew up in a Jewish household in Lafayette Hill, Pennsylvania, with mother Paulette (a psychiatrist) and father Ken (a veterinarian). At the age of 12, Michael launched a ski-tuning business in his parents’ basement. Two years later, he used $2,500 he received at his bar mitzvah to open Mike’s Ski and Sport in Conshohocken, Pennsylvania, with his father’s signature on the lease. By the time Rubin was 16, he had incurred $120,000 in debt, and he settled with creditors with the help of a $37,000 loan from Ken. In order to get the money from his father, Michael had to agree to go to college, and he spent one semester at Villanova University. By the time he enrolled at Villanova University, his business had grown from one ski shop to five. Rubin dropped out of college after he bought $200,000 worth of sports overstock equipment that had been deeply discounted and made a $75,000 profit when he resold it.CareerRubin sold his ski shops and launched KPR Sports, a closeout company that sold athletic equipment. In 1993, Michael turned 21 and KPR Sports made its first million in yearly sales. By 1995, sales were up to $50 million. In the mid-1990s, Rubin bought 40% of Rykä, a women’s athletic shoe manufacturer, and in 1998, he formed a logistics and apparel company called Global Sports Incorporated, which later turned into the e-commerce company GSI Commerce. In 2011, Michael sold the company to eBay for a whopping $2.4 billion, but eBay was only interested in the order fulfillment business so it could better compete with Amazon, and Rubin was able to buy back GSI’s consumer businesses for a low price. He repurchased the sports merchandiser Fanatics, Inc., the retail benefits program Shop Runner, and the flash seller Rue La La. Michael is Fanatics’ CEO, and he serves on Rue La La’s board as an executive chairman. He sold ShopRunner to FedEx for $228 million in 2020. He has arranged Fanatics partnership deals with over 300 teams, sports, and professional leagues that put Fanatics in charge of designing, manufacturing, and distributing Nike gear for Major League Baseball and the  National Football League.

In August 2020, the company’s valuation rose to $6.2 billion after he raised $350 million in Series E funding, and he secured $645 million in funding in 2021, which brought Fanatics’ valuation up to $18 billion.Personal LifeMichael was formerly married to dance teacher Meegan Rubin, and they welcomed daughter Kylie before ending their marriage.
