Jake Paul got his first private jet and Mercedes Maybach SUV after a reported $40 million payday

Jake Paul just bought his first private jet, and a matching Mercedes-Maybach GLS to go with it.

Paul reportedly received a $40 million payday from Netflix for his fight with Mike Tyson, and he’s clearly decided to spend some of it already.

Don’t quote us on this, but the plane looks like a Dassault Falcon 900B, which ‘only’ costs around seven figures.

So it’s fair to say he’s still got enough left to pay for the fuel.

A huge payday for Jake Paul

Jake Paul was already quite wealthy, but his fight with Tyson definitely elevated his status, and added a few zeros to his bank account.

Paul owns a variety of expensive vehicles, including a Ferrari SF90 he very nearly lost in a bet, but this is something else.

The Mercedes-Maybach GLS he bought goes for about $200,000, but a private jet like that can cost anywhere from $5 million to $10 million, depending on a variety of factors.

Paul shared both purchases on Instagram, probably because he also wanted to show his fans how these two new vehicles were painted with the exact same shade of ceramic grey.

Jake Paul’s rise to fame

Jake Paul’s brother, Logan, was an early Vine creator who successfully transitioned to YouTube when Vine died away.

He got famous, and rich, and it took a long time for his brother Jake to catch up.

But some would argue that the tables are now turning, and Jake is quickly becoming possibly even wealthier than his brother thanks to his breakthrough in what some people call ‘white-collar boxing‘.

Paul has a relatively good record so far – a defeat to Tommy Fury aside – but the fight against Mike Tyson truly cemented his celebrity status.

According to Fortune.com, most sources believed Jake Paul’s net worth, pre-Tyson fight, to be around $80 million.

It’s definitely higher than that now.
