Wait ... Carson Palmer is listing his Del Mar mansion for how much?
Carson Palmer is quite the businessman, it seems.
This is a quarterback who has earned a rare quartet — four banner huge contracts since coming into the NFL, and he's still going strong, very much steeped in the league's MVP race at age 35.
Total estimated career earnings, per Spotrac: more than $138 million.
God bless the NFL. And America.

And god bless real estate, which apparently could net Palmer another windfall. Check out this listing of Palmer's house in Del Mar, Calif., per the Los Angeles Times, which he's listing for a breathtaking $24.995 million.
Whoa.
But here's the kicker: Palmer, according to real-estate transactions, bought the property for $4.4 million in 2010 and completed building the house in 2014. Without knowing how much the house cost to erect, Palmer still would stand to make an insane return on his initial investment — assuming he gets anywhere close to asking. That would be quite the flip.
Del Mar is a popular celebrity locale, and fellow NFL quarterbacks Drew Brees and Aaron Rodgers have owned homes in the area. (So has former Journey singer Steve Perry, for you music nuts out there.) It's gorgeous, right on the water and is a short drive up the coast from Torrey Pines Golf Course among other places that rich people frequent.
Take a look at the insane pad — 8,000 square feet, six bedrooms, six full baths (two half baths), three stories, infinity pool, outdoor dining area, bocce ball court (!), five fireplaces (LOL) and, oh yeah, a 10-car garage — Palmer has built here.
Worth $25 mil? Who knows? But it's fun to click and dream a bit ...
