Why Tony Robbins Flies by Private Jet

Born from humble beginnings, the master of motivation is perhaps his own best client. Tony Robbins sits atop an estimated net worth of $480 million according to Forbes, owns or is a partner in several companies, wrote several best-selling books, and provides life coaching to CEOs, political leaders and more.

 I was exposed to Tony Robbins the first time back in 1991 when I was living in California and training to become a commercial pilot. I was struggling with flying multi-engine aircraft because of the speed. I started applying Tony Robbins’ Neuro Associative Conditioning (NAC) by copying my Flight Instructor’s physiology. My performance increased within the space of a few minutes and I went onto qualify and to a successful career as a professional pilot.

 But for all his advice on how to make lots of money, Robbins likes to spend money, too. Some of the things he buys are luxurious, some are not, and some are for other people. Here’s a list of some of Robbins’ favorite things to throw his money at.  Tony Robbins shared the one thing he buys to make his life easier or better:

 "Private jets. Private flight. Extraordinary," he said. "There's nothing that changes quality of life when you travel as much as I do, as that."

 In fact, he was persuaded to give private flights a try after a 13-hour lost-luggage, delayed-flight ordeal between San Diego and Aspen, where he was visiting a billionaire friend for Christmas. Tony is a great believer in learning form successful people and when his billionaire friend told him how to bypass commercial flights, Tony tuned in.

 Tony said, "Dude, I'm not a billionaire like you." He goes, "You don't have to be a billionaire. You have to start thinking that you're worth it."

 And he said, "Here's what you need to do. You need to go charter." He said, "Now if you go charter, you're not gonna like the price you see. 'Cause you're gonna see, 'I could've got a ticket for $800 and made all those trips. Now when I charter, this thing might cost me $5,000 — for the small jet in those days — to do this trip.'"

 He said, "But, I'm gonna tell you something, if you just take a budget and you just say, 'For the year I'm gonna spend this, but I can go when I want, where I want, wherever I want, in the middle of the night, with my own food. I can sleep in the middle of the night 'cause I've got a bed on the plane.'"

He said, "It will change your productivity more than anything on earth." And it sounded insane. So he said, "Start with a small amount. Pick a number, and just say you're gonna charter. Don't be stupid and buy a jet initially, start by chartering.”
