Floyd Mayweather gave his pilots $1,000 apiece and shared tipping advice for anyone who has private jets

Floyd Mayweather, known as Money for much of his boxing career, shared his tipping advice for anyone who gets flown private.

• Floyd Mayweather likes to fly private.
• He also likes to tip.
• The former world champion recently tipped his pilots $1,000 each after they navigated turbulence.

Floyd Mayweather said in a video on social media earlier this month that he gave his pilots "$1,000 apiece" after a turbulent flight on board one of his private jets.

"Today, I tipped my pilots $1,000 apiece because it was kind of rough," said the former five-weight world boxing champion.

He also shared tipping advice for anyone else who tends to fly private.

"Everybody that has got their own jet, you've always got to tip your pilots no matter what.

"I don't care if it's $200 or $2,000, you've got to tip your pilot."

Mayweather purchased a Gulfstream G650 in 2018, which can cost around $60 million and hit long-range cruise speeds of 650mph, according to a previous Insider report.

It isn't the only private jet he owns, as The Sun reported this year that he has a second plane worth approximately $30 million for his entourage to follow him.

Mayweather is accustomed to flying pilot after earning approximately $1 billion in earnings, according to Forbes, from a box office fighting career that began in 1996 and finished in 2017.

Insider reported in 2018 that the fighter reportedly flew from the US to Iceland just to take an Instagram photo — and it looked like he did the same in Paris and Russia.

Mayweather also spends his money on real estate, fast cars, and a jewelry collection that includes an $18 million watch.
