127 founders (net worth: ~$1M–$100M+) opened up their personal books. Want to see how your finances stack up? https://www.joinhampton.com/wealth-report
Is flying private a waste of money, or the ultimate time hack for the ultra-wealthy? In this episode, we break down what it really costs, who it makes sense for, and why even billionaires think twice.
Here’s what we talk about:
- Private aviation expert Preston Holland explains the true cost of flying private, from charter to full ownership.
- When does it make financial sense? Around $2M in income and $20M net worth.
- Why fractional ownership is trending, even for people who can afford full planes.
- Guests like Andrew Wilkinson, Josh Payne, and Nick Huber share how and why they fly.
- The real costs: pilots, insurance, hangars, maintenance, and depreciation.
- Who flies private most: rural founders, franchise owners, post-monetary entrepreneurs.
- Flying yourself? FinTech founders and control freaks, take note.
- A PSA: Jets don’t make money, don’t fall for “fly for free” scams.
- Jackie reflects on patience vs. buying back time.
