Ronaldo who has a hotel, clothing line, perfumes says he wants to learn to become a better businessman so he can have a fulfilled life when he finally retires.
"Now I'm focused on the field, I know the time will come when I'll have to leave it, but until then I want to enjoy the moment," Ronaldo told Juventus legend Alessandro Del Piero in an interview for Sky Italia.
"Which is good, it's very good. I know that when I retire I will have a good life.
"I do not say that because I have a lot of money, I say it because I will try new things.
"For example, I want to try making movies. Then I have my companies: my hotels, my gyms, my line with Nike. I want to learn to be a businessman, I started planning my future at 27 or 28 years, a long time ago."
