Your dad passing is a VERY valid "excuse" for not finishing flight school. Don't be so hard on yourself, everyone would struggle man. We all understand that and we hope to see you in the air soon my friend. I think a helicopter would be an awesome party trick with all the friends and would help you personally travel more places if you really wanted too.
James, for two-seater helicopters, the Robinson R44 Raven II and Hughes 369 are solid options, typically costing between $350,000 and $700,000 for used models. For four-seaters, the Robinson R22 and Bell Model 47 are good choices, with prices ranging from $185,000 to $300,000. While the R22 is a reliable helicopter, the Bell Model 47 could make a statement, as it’s the same model featured as the Batcopter in the 1966 Batman TV show and movie. I'd like to consult a financial advisor to assess the best investment value and potential return on these options.
One lesson I've learnt from billionaires is to always put your money to work, and diversifying your investments. I'm planning to invest about $200k of my savings in stocks this year, and I hope I make profits.
Maintenance costs could be substantial, which might outweigh the benefits of owning a helicopter at this time. It might be wise to consult a financial advisor to evaluate whether investing in a helicopter aligns with your current financial goals and to assess the long-term financial impact of maintenance expenses.
No worries, we all start somewhere! 📈 First, grab a comfy chair and some popcorn 🍿, and dive into some beginner-friendly finance videos. Start with basics like "investing for dummies" and "how to trade stocks 101." When you're ready for more, also consider financial advisor like "MARGARET ELLEN WHITLOCK"-I came across her in a CNBC interview, she's like the Yoda of finance! May the gains be with you! 🚀💰
Man, hearing you speak about the affect your dad's death had on your passion really hit me. I lost my mom in January this year and I have been struggling with my passions, studying and uploading on CZcams.
Thank you for finally sharing the story behind flight training. I also had to drive an hour to and from my flight training. It was draining to do every day. Can’t imagine trying to do the mental gymnastics of flight training while going through the loss of your father. Totally understandable to put it on the back burner. I’m a CFII ATP rated private jet pilot. If I’m ever in Utah or you’re ever in Vegas when I’m there I’d be happy to chat aviation and show you around the jet anytime.
@Jaxblckkk fr. Bricks and cement aren't cheap in Europe tho. It's cheaper here in India. For the price strad built his house, we could build a fucking mansion like twice the size
Strad, I’ve been watching your videos for over 8 years now. I’m 20 going to 21 in a few months. Listen, you were one of the leading motivators that got me into aviation, I’m probably at the stage at where you were when you quit, I have almost all my hours(1.5 of foggle and 1 hour of solo left) you got to get your license man. You got me into it, I would love to see you get yours. Thank you.
Sounds like you're almost done. Good luck on the upcoming checkride! I was in your shoes just 3 years ago, and now I'm flying for a regional airline here in the US. Best of luck in your future of aviation whether you're making it a career or keeping aviation as a hobby. Fly safe buddy.
It’s kind of interesting when James opens up about the inner workings of his mentality towards his father passing. To see someone so positive speak on mental health and openly talk about the hardships of something tragic that you don’t openly see.
It’s a good day when you get a new stradman video. You can’t help but root for the guy. Coming from where he did to the life he has now is just amazing. Couldn’t have happened to a better human being.
Strad you need to build a helicopter pad in the backyard to do donuts with the cars on and for your buddy to bring his helicopter and maybe even your own in the near future!
I love your honestly. It really brings up a lot of my own emotions when my dad died. Not something you expect from a car youtube guy. Thank you for everything
Hallelujah 🙌🏻!!!!! The daily jesus devotional has been a huge part of my transformation, God is good 🙌🏻🙌🏻. I was owing a loan of $49,000 to the bank for my son's brain surgery, Now I'm no longer in debt after I invested $11,000 and got my payout of $290,500 every month…God bless Ms Susan jane Christy❤️
@@Potato_pigeon his passion left after his father passed, he also had so much going on with the house part prices going up due to covid, also the travel, the closest airport was 40-50 min away, but if he got a helicopter he could park it in his back yard
I NEVER knew James had the pilots license, and I NEVER knew his dad had passed away, that's crazy, but also a valid "excuse", he needs to build a helipad on his backyard
Only been in a helicopter once - vegas to grand canyon and back - it will forever be my favourite way to travel. If you (not just strad) can afford it then go for it. It's the best way to move around.
James, some good helicopters that are four seaters are the Robinson R44 Raven ii, and the Hughes 369. Those can range from $350,000-$700,000 used. A couple good two seaters are the Robinson R22, and the Bell model 47. They can range from possibly $185,000-$300,000. The R22 is a really good helicopter, but if you get the Bell model 47, you will turn some heads. That is because, it is the batcopter from the 1966 Batman TV show and movie.
The adventure in this video is ABSOLUTELY AWESOME , dude i'm happy to see you hanging out with true friends , can't wait to see the gallardo back , WHAT A BIGG W :) !!!!!!!!!
On the topic of aviation, you should definitely come out to Airventure in Oshkosh this week! July 22-28 It’s the larger airshow in the world and has a ton of resources to help you finish you license and maybe even find yourself a helicopter!! 😉
James, I just wanted to tell you that you should never give up work hard as you can and never give up If you want to get a license get the license, you should never ever ever give up on your dreams
Hey Strad, I started flight school just the same time as you and will be a Flight instructor in a few weeks. I've been watching your vids for years now and would love to be your CFI to get you done with PPL. I've got a plane and can come to you. I bought a 2020 Supra after you did a couple years ago and sold it to pursue aviation. Love your channel, let's get you flying!
You don't need a helicopter when your friends own them! Finish the house and garage and property. Secure all your assets completions. Then marry Sophie, and pay off the Koenigsegg, and then invite me over to BBQ for you.
Bro, that would just elevate your game. You should totally get a chopper! Imagine the possibilities and the way you could expand your channel. You said in Graham Stephens podcast that its getting harder to think of content. I could definitely see that changing with a new and different toy like a chopper. And dont worry, the bat-cave will come in time. I'm even more excited to see what content you may bring. Keep raising that sky in your world, love the vids!
James. All those colors are crazy together, what you mean James all the cars are crazy the amount work you continue to put in for us is amazing. As continue on completing your dreams, you’re sharing it with us and driving the beautiful cars like they were made to do.
I’ve never played Pickle ball, but it sure looks fun! Great video and good luck on getting a Helicopter 🚁 ! My dream would be to just ride in one for hours. 😊
There's nothing like the views from overwatch advantage point. I'm glad James get approval for these shenanigans, and everyone was so accommodating. Dude, finish the Batcave and get a few other items squared away before thinking about buying a helicopter.
As much as I have loved seeing the Strad progress over the years displayed in this video, it really just made me miss the roof adventures #babyburlacher 🤗
I'm starting to like this channel more than the main channel. James is reminding me alot of Matt Carriker. Took a passion made it a living. Multiple channels, other business adventures. Way to go. Go get that helicopter.
Are you kidding me! So cool! We need helicopters now great 😂
Let's take helicopter school together!

Don’t listen to these fools. As much as I want a jeeporghini, I didn’t learn to fly totally legally to not land a helicopter on someone’s lawn.
